[0026] To better understand this utility model, the following embodiments are further illustrations of this utility model, but the content of this utility model is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, a kitchen wastewater treatment system utilizing anaerobic ammonia oxidation technology includes: an inlet tank 1, an anaerobic reactor 2, a first intermediate tank 3, a baffled bioreactor 4, a second intermediate tank 5, and an anaerobic ammonia oxidation reactor 6, connected in sequence.
[0028] The system comprises the following components: Inlet tank 1 is connected to the inlet of anaerobic reactor 2 via a first inlet pump 21; the outlet of anaerobic reactor 2 is connected to the inlet of the first intermediate tank 3, and the outlet of anaerobic reactor 2 is connected to the circulating inlet of anaerobic reactor 2 via a first circulating pump 22; the first intermediate tank 3 is connected to the inlet of the baffled bioreactor 4 via a second inlet pump 41; the second intermediate tank 5 is connected to the inlet of the anaerobic ammonia oxidation reactor 6 via a third inlet pump 61. Simultaneously, the outlet of the anaerobic ammonia oxidation reactor 6 is connected to the circulating inlet of the anaerobic ammonia oxidation reactor 6 via a second circulating pump 62; the outlet of inlet tank 1 is connected to the inlet of the second intermediate tank 5 via a metering pump 51; and the first intermediate tank 3 is connected to the inlet of the second intermediate tank 5 via a pipeline pump 52.
[0029] Meanwhile, a first online ammonia nitrogen analyzer 11 is installed in the inlet pool 1, a second online ammonia nitrogen analyzer 31 is installed in the first intermediate pool 3, and a nitrate nitrogen online analyzer 45 is installed at the outlet of the baffled bioreactor 4.
[0030] The baffled bioreactor 4 is connected to a blower system 42 for introducing oxygen-containing gas into the baffled bioreactor 4. The baffled bioreactor 4 consists of a micro-aeration section and a fully aeration section from the inlet to the outlet, and is equipped with MBBR packing material. Specifically, the baffled bioreactor 4 is divided into interconnected anaerobic, micro-aeration, and fully aeration sections by partitions. Both the micro-aeration and fully aeration sections are equipped with aeration terminals controlled by the blower system 42 to regulate the aeration rate. The blower system 42 has dedicated aeration pipes for the micro-aeration and fully aeration sections, each equipped with a control valve to regulate its flow rate. Furthermore, the baffled bioreactor 4 is equipped with a sludge hopper, and the sludge outlet 44 of the sludge hopper is connected to the inlet of the baffled bioreactor 4 via a sludge return pump 43.
[0031] The processing system also includes a dedicated control system 7, which is connected to the first online ammonia nitrogen analyzer 11, the second online ammonia nitrogen analyzer 31, and the online nitrate nitrogen analyzer 45. The dedicated control system 7 controls the metering pump 51, the second inlet pump 41, and the pipeline pump 52 to regulate and control the flow rate and flow distribution at the outlets of the inlet pool 1 and the first intermediate pool 3.
[0032] In actual use, pretreated kitchen wastewater enters the inlet tank 1, and is then pumped into the anaerobic reactor 2 for further treatment. The effluent enters the first intermediate tank 3, and the first circulation pump 22 is activated to maintain a certain upward flow velocity within the anaerobic reactor 2. A portion of the wastewater in the first intermediate tank 3 enters the baffled bioreactor 4 via the second inlet pump 41. The front section of the baffled bioreactor 4 is an anaerobic environment, primarily for anaerobic phosphorus release. By adjusting the control valve of the aeration pipe in the blower system 42, the middle section of the baffled bioreactor 4 is kept in a state of micro-aeration, while MBBR packing is added to create an environment conducive to short-cut nitrification-anaerobic ammonium oxidation. The rear section of the baffled bioreactor 4 is in a state of complete aeration, ensuring that all residual nitrogen in the wastewater is converted into nitrate nitrogen, while aerobic phosphorus uptake also occurs. The sludge return pump 43 is activated to maintain a certain sludge concentration within the baffled bioreactor 4, and phosphorus removal from the wastewater is achieved by discharging phosphorus-rich residual sludge. The effluent from the baffled bioreactor 4 enters the second intermediate tank 5.

[0034] Wastewater in the second intermediate water tank 5 enters the anaerobic ammonia oxidation reactor 6 through the third inlet pump 61 for short-cut denitrification-anaerobic ammonia oxidation denitrification reaction, and the second circulation pump 62 is turned on to maintain a certain upward flow rate in the reactor.
[0035] This treatment system combines short-cut nitrification-anammox to save aeration and carbon source dosage. It leverages the ease of control and stable accumulation of nitrite nitrogen in short-cut denitrification, overcoming the difficulty of providing a stable nitrite nitrogen substrate for anammox. Simultaneously, under the dual action of short-cut nitrification-anammox and short-cut denitrification-anammox, even if the nitrogen removal efficiency of the short-cut nitrification-anammox effluent fluctuates, the subsequent short-cut denitrification-anammox effluent can achieve stable nitrogen removal through anammox, avoiding excessively high nitrate nitrogen levels in the effluent. Furthermore, a dedicated control system 7 controls the flow distribution of each influent pump, exhibiting strong adaptability to water quality fluctuations. It can utilize raw kitchen wastewater as a carbon source for the short-cut denitrification reaction while precisely controlling the nitrate nitrogen to ammonia nitrogen ratio entering the anammox reactor 6, achieving optimal nitrogen removal efficiency for the anammox reaction.
[0036] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
