Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to sewage treatment technical field especially relates to a sulfur autotrophic denitrification biological transfer cage. BACKGROUND

[0002] Sewage treatment is an important issue in the current environmental field. The total nitrogen exceeding standard emission after secondary biochemical treatment of sewage has become a difficult problem to be solved, because it can easily cause water eutrophication and destroy the stability of the water ecological system. The total nitrogen in sewage is mainly nitrate nitrogen, so the removal of nitrate nitrogen has become one of the core points of sewage treatment.

[0003] The traditional denitrification method is heterotrophic denitrification filter, and its principle is to use heterotrophic denitrifying bacteria to utilize organic matter as electron donor under anoxic conditions to promote the reduction of nitrate nitrogen in sewage to nitrogen gas escaping. However, it is found in research that the organic carbon source is scarce after secondary biochemical treatment of sewage, which leads to the heterotrophic denitrification filter having to add organic carbon source in actual operation, thereby causing a series of drawbacks. From the economic cost point of view, the cost of reagents and energy consumption increases significantly, which brings heavy economic burden to sewage treatment plants; from the environmental impact and subsequent treatment point of view, the amount of residual sludge increases significantly, and the cost of sludge treatment and disposal also rises, and the amount of carbon source addition is difficult to control accurately, and once the addition is excessive, secondary pollution is easily caused, which causes potential harm to the surrounding water and soil environment.

[0004] Under this background, sulfur autotrophic denitrification technology emerges as the times require and becomes a new denitrification method in the field of sewage treatment, that is, using sulfur autotrophic denitrifying bacteria to reduce nitrate nitrogen in sewage to nitrogen gas under anoxic conditions with sulfur or sulfur compounds as electron donor, which has the advantages of less residual sludge, no need to add organic matter, reduction of operation cost and risk of secondary pollution, and has become one of the hot directions of current research and application of sewage treatment technology. At present, the most widely used technology of sulfur autotrophic denitrification is sulfur autotrophic denitrification filter, but there are still many technical bottlenecks, such as high price of sulfur-containing filter material used in sulfur autotrophic denitrification filter, which greatly increases the construction and operation cost of treatment facilities; in the filtration process, the water head loss is large, which affects the treatment efficiency and stability; the filter material is easy to block, which causes poor water flow and reduces the treatment effect; at the same time, hydraulic dead zones are also produced, which causes local sewage to be unable to be effectively treated; and regular backwashing maintenance is needed, which further increases the complexity of operation and management and cost investment, and these defects seriously limit the large-scale promotion and application of sulfur autotrophic denitrification filter.
