Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of sewage treatment, and specifically relates to a MABR-OSA sludge reduction device. Background Art

[0002] The activated sludge method has the characteristics of high pollutant removal rate and low cost, and has become a typical process for sewage treatment. However, the application of this technology produces a large amount of excess activated sludge. The treatment and disposal of excess sludge in sewage treatment plants is one of the main operating costs. The excess sludge may contain heavy metals, pathogens and organic pollutants, etc., and the sludge needs to be properly treated and disposed of. However, most treatment technologies have high energy consumption, high treatment costs or use a large amount of chemicals, accompanied by secondary pollution problems. Sludge in-situ reduction technology has become an effective way to solve the problem of large amounts of excess sludge. Among various in-situ reduction technologies, the aerobic-sedimentation-anaerobic (OSA) process has the characteristics of low energy consumption, obvious reduction effect, and no secondary pollution. It is considered to be an ideal reduction method and has broad prospects in practical engineering applications.

[0003] The OSA process consists of an aerobic tank, a sedimentation tank and an anaerobic reactor. An anaerobic reactor is added to the sludge return section of the activated sludge process. The sludge stays in the anaerobic reactor for a period of time and then returns to the main reaction area. The sludge alternates between aerobic and anaerobic environments, which not only reduces the amount of sludge, but also is conducive to the growth of polyphosphate bacteria and enhances phosphorus removal.

[0004] The OSA process can be combined with other technologies to reduce sludge, for example, using ultrasound, ozone, chemical uncouplers, etc. Although these technologies significantly reduce the generation of excess sludge, they have a high implementation cost. The combination of membrane aerated bioreactor (MABR) and OSA process can be used to reduce sludge production. Membrane aerated bioreactor (MABR) is an efficient treatment system that combines gas diffusion membrane technology with biofilm technology. It uses a breathable membrane to provide the necessary oxygen for microorganisms and encourages microorganisms to attach and grow on the outer surface of the membrane. Compared with the traditional activated sludge method and MBR process, MABR has shown significant advantages, with high oxygen transfer efficiency, which can transfer oxygen to microorganisms more quickly and effectively, thereby improving the efficiency of biological reactions; low power consumption, which can save a lot of energy costs during operation; it is worth mentioning that MABR produces less sludge during the treatment process, which not only reduces the burden of sludge treatment, but also further improves the efficiency and sustainability of the entire treatment system.

The biofilm of the MABR reaction tank has anaerobic, facultative and aerobic functional processes at the same time, and can achieve simultaneous nitrification and denitrification, especially in the MABR reaction tank, the nitrification liquid returned from the aerobic zone and the organic carbon source in the sewage are used to complete denitrification. An anaerobic reactor is added to the sludge return section. The sludge stays in the anaerobic reactor for a period of time and then flows back to the main reaction zone, which introduces part of the carbon source into the MABR reaction tank. The sludge is reduced by alternating between aerobic and anaerobic environments.
