[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of sludge treatment, and in particular relates to a sludge reduction treatment system based on an A2O process. Background Art

[0002] The A2O (anaerobic-anoxic-aerobic) process is a commonly used treatment process in sewage treatment plants and is a type of activated sludge process. The wastewater treatment process produces a large amount of sludge. The residual sludge often contains a large amount of toxic and hazardous substances and organic matter. If not properly treated and disposed of, it will cause direct or potential secondary pollution to the environment. To reduce the impact of sludge pollution, sludge reduction technology has been proposed.

The process mainly consists of a jet wall-breaking reactor, an anaerobic digestion reactor, and an aerobic digestion reactor. The process can achieve a sludge reduction of more than 70%, but the process system has high energy consumption and high operating costs. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0017] like Figure 1As shown, a sludge reduction treatment system based on the A2O process includes an A2O tank 1, a secondary sedimentation tank 2, a sludge pump tank 3, a culture tank 4 and a sludge storage tank 5. The A2O tank 1 is provided with an anaerobic zone 11, an anoxic zone 12 and an aerobic zone 13 from upstream to downstream. The outlet of the A2O tank 1 is connected to the secondary sedimentation tank 2. A baffle is provided at the bottom of the sludge pump tank 3 to divide the sludge pump tank 3 into two areas. The bottom of one area is connected to the secondary sedimentation tank 2. A sludge return pump 31 is provided in the area, and a residual sludge pump 32 is provided in the other area. The outlet of the residual sludge pump 32 is connected to the sludge storage tank 5. The outlet of the sludge return pump 31 is divided into two pipelines. A sludge return pipe enhanced bioreactor 33 is provided on one pipeline and extends to connect the anaerobic zone of the A2O tank 1. The other pipeline is connected to the culture pool 4. A baffle is provided inside the culture pool 4 to divide the culture pool 4 into two areas. A flow promoter 41 is provided in each area. A culture pool circulation pump 42 is provided in one area. The outlet pipeline of the culture pool circulation pump 42 is divided into two pipelines. One pipeline is provided with a culture pool enhanced bioreactor 43 and is connected to the other area through backflow. The other pipeline is connected to the aerobic zone 13 of the A2O tank 1. The interiors of the sludge return pipe enhanced bioreactor 33 and the culture pool enhanced bioreactor 43 are made of multi-potential alloy material. Expansion joints and pressure gauges are installed before and after the pipelines of the sludge return pipe enhanced bioreactor 33 and the culture pool enhanced bioreactor 43. The volume of the culture pool 4 is 10-20% of that of the A2O tank 1.

[0018] A sludge reduction treatment process using the above system comprises the following steps:

[0019] 1) Startup phase: After pretreatment, the wastewater is transported to A2O tank 1 for biochemical treatment. The effluent from A2O tank 1 is transported to secondary sedimentation tank 2 for sedimentation and stratification. The sludge from secondary sedimentation tank 2 is transported to sludge pump tank 3.

[0020] 2) Bacteria cultivation stage: After the system runs stably, the sewage containing activated sludge in the sludge pump pool 3 is transported to the bacteria cultivation pool 4 through the sludge return pump 31. When the sludge volume reaches the effective volume of the bacteria cultivation pool, the transportation is stopped. The bacteria cultivation pool enhanced bioreactor 43 circulates the sludge. The treated sludge is used as a nutrient base for the high-efficiency aerobic composite engineered bacteria. The engineered bacteria are then added to the bacteria cultivation pool 4. The flow pusher 41 is turned on and the power of the flow pusher 41 is not less than 5 w / m 3 Pool volume, domestication and cultivation of high-efficiency composite engineered bacteria;

[0021] 3) Operational stage: To better adapt to the biochemical system, the activated sludge rich in high-efficiency composite engineered bacteria is pumped into the aerobic zone 13 of the A2O tank 1 in 4-6 batches through the culture tank circulation pump 42. The sludge return pipe enhanced bioreactor 33 is started. The sludge containing high-efficiency composite engineered bacteria in the sludge pump tank 3 is treated by the sludge return pipe enhanced bioreactor 33 and then returned to the anaerobic zone 11 of the A2O tank 1. The residual sludge pump 32 transports the residual sludge in the sludge pump tank 3 to the sludge storage tank 5. To mitigate the impact on the biochemical system and allow the system to better adapt, the operation time of the sludge return pipe enhanced bioreactor is increased in stages until it is put into operation at 100% load. The operation process of the enhanced bioreactor 33 in the sludge return pipe in step 3) is divided into five stages, specifically the first stage: working 4 hours a day for three days, continuously observing the system effluent treatment indicators (SS, COD, ammonia nitrogen, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, pH, etc.). If the effluent is normal (meets the discharge standard), enter the next stage; the second stage: working 6 hours a day for three days, continuously observing the system effluent treatment indicators. If the effluent is normal, enter the next stage; the third stage: working 12 hours a day for three days, continuously observing the system effluent treatment indicators. If the effluent is normal, enter the next stage; the fourth stage: working 18 hours a day for three days, continuously observing the system effluent treatment indicators. If the effluent is normal, enter the next stage; the fifth stage: working 24 hours a day for three days, continuously observing the system effluent treatment indicators. If the effluent is normal, enter the stable operation stage.

[0022] Taking a sewage treatment plant with a sewage treatment capacity of 60,000 tons / day as an example, the sewage treatment volume of the first phase is 30,000 tons / day. As a blank group, no treatment is adopted. The sewage treatment volume of the second phase is 30,000 tons / day. After the sludge reduction treatment system based on the A2O process of the utility model is used for treatment, the sludge discharge is calculated after the system runs stably.
