[0002] Sludge is mainly composed of solid substances in original wastewater and solid substances generated in the wastewater treatment process. It contains a large amount of organic matter, inorganic matter, pathogenic microorganisms and various chemical substances. If the sludge is not properly treated and directly discharged or stacked, it will cause great harm: harmful substances in the sludge can destroy the soil structure, affect soil fertility, and even pose a threat to human health through the food chain; pathogenic microorganisms and parasite eggs in the sludge can cause various diseases and pose a threat to human health. Traditional sludge treatment mostly uses sedimentation, dewatering, stabilization (anaerobic digestion) and drying methods to treat sludge. For example, the sludge treatment system with publication number CN219239491U is treated by hydrothermal and drying methods. This method consumes a lot of energy and cannot utilize biogas in the anaerobic digestion process, resulting in waste of resources. SUMMARY

[0018] Figure 2 is the structural schematic diagram of the biogas purification system of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The utility model will be further described in combination with the drawings.
[0020] Example 1
[0021] As Figure 1As shown, a sludge treatment system includes a thickening device, which is connected to a mixing agitator via a thickening pump. The mixing agitator is connected to a dewatering device via a mixing pump. The dewatering device is connected to an anaerobic digester via a screw conveyor. The anaerobic digester is temperature-controlled by a temperature control system. The anaerobic digester is connected to a biogas purification system and a drying system. The biogas purification system is connected to a gas storage tank II, which is connected to a biogas compressor. The biogas compressor is connected to the drying system, which is connected to a waste heat boiler.
[0022] Example 2
[0023] like Figure 1 – Figure 2 As shown, a sludge treatment system includes a belt filter press as the thickening equipment, which accelerates sludge treatment compared to traditional gravity settling; a centrifugal dewatering machine as the dewatering equipment; and a drying system comprising a rotary kiln and a gas combustion chamber. An anaerobic digester is connected to the rotary kiln via a screw conveyor, and the rotary kiln is connected to both the gas combustion chamber and a waste heat boiler. A heat recovery pipe is installed above the gas combustion chamber and connected to the rotary kiln, improving the sustainable recycling rate of heat within the gas combustion chamber. A biogas compressor is connected to the gas combustion chamber via a valve, which can adjust the flow of gas into the combustion chamber. The biogas supply rate; the temperature control system includes a U-shaped heating pipe and a temperature sensor. The U-shaped heating pipe is located at the bottom of the anaerobic digester and is responsible for heating the anaerobic digester. An insulation layer is provided on the outside of the anaerobic digester. The temperature sensor is located inside the anaerobic digester to maintain the optimal temperature and promote microbial activity; the biogas purification system includes a gas storage tank I, which is connected to the anaerobic digester and a gas filter. The gas filter is connected to a drying tower, which is connected to a desulfurization tower, which is connected to an absorption tower, and the absorption tower is connected to a gas storage tank II. The rest is the same as in Example 1.
[0024] The belt filter rapidly concentrates and dehydrates the sludge, and then the sludge is transported to a mixing stirrer, in which a polymer flocculant is added to condition the sludge to improve the dewatering performance of the sludge, and then the sludge is dewatered by a centrifugal dewatering machine. The dewatered sludge is transported into an anaerobic digestion tank to decompose organic matters by microorganisms. The anaerobic digestion tank controls the temperature by a temperature sensor and a coiled heating tube, and the temperature is usually controlled at about 35°C. The sludge in the anaerobic digestion tank is transported to a rotary furnace to be heated by a gas combustion chamber (the drying principle is the same as the prior art), and the excess heat energy waste gas is converted to a waste heat boiler (the prior art). The biogas generated in the anaerobic digestion tank is pumped into a gas storage tank I by a biogas pump to be initially pressurized; then filtered by a gas filter to remove solid particulate matters; then dehumidified by a drying tower, which can remove water vapor to prevent corrosion of downstream equipment; then removed of hydrogen sulfide by a desulfurization tower; and finally absorbed of CO2 and other acid gases by an absorption tower. The purified biogas is stored in a gas storage tank II, and is supplied to the gas combustion chamber by a biogas compressor and a valve for auxiliary use, so as to improve the resource reuse rate and reduce the cost.
