为了在酸性条件下实现剩余污泥中磷的高效回收，对pH=3时剩余污泥水解酸化过程中氨氮、正磷酸盐和钙镁离子的溶出现象以及磷回收进行了研究分析。结果表明：当pH=3时，所溶出的氨氮、镁离子和钙离子与磷酸盐的摩尔比均大于1，能满足采用鸟粪石沉淀法或者羟磷灰石沉淀法回收磷的要求；但所溶出的钙镁离子的摩尔比大于1，会对鸟粪石沉淀法回收磷的顺利进行有较大影响；有无外加镁剂对磷回收率影响不大。采用改型后的镁型强酸性阳离子交换树脂进行离子交换可以得到较高纯度的鸟粪石沉淀产品，通过XRD检测其纯度为95%以上。

微波及其组合工艺污泥预处理上清液中碳酸盐对磷回收的影响

本研究考察了微波及其组合工艺(微波-酸、微波-碱、微波-过氧化氢和微波-过氧化氢-碱)污泥预处理的碳酸盐溶出特征,并研究了碳酸盐对鸟粪石法磷回收的影响。结果表明,微波及其组合工艺进行污泥预处理时,碳酸盐的释放与pH值显著相关,但与预处理方法无关。模拟实验结果表明,当在浓度≤150 mg/L时,碳酸盐对鸟粪石结晶的磷/镁摩尔比(Mg/P=0.74~1.16)具有一定影响,但对鸟粪石法磷回收率(>90%)和鸟粪石结晶形态(呈典型的斜方晶型)没有显著影响。

为探讨剩余污泥超声预处理后的水解酸化特性,考察了0.6 W/mL、5 min和1 W/mL、5 min 2种超声预处理条件下污泥水解酸化过程有机质、氮、磷的释放情况。实验结果表明,2种超声预处理均可促进污泥水解酸化,并且0.6 W/mL比1 W/mL的超声预处理更有利于SCOD的释放、VFAs的产生以及氮和磷的释放;水解酸化初期,超声预处理比未经超声预处理的污泥在有机质、氮、磷释放率上差异非常明显,随着水解酸化的进行,有机质和氮释放率差异仍很明显,而磷释放程度逐渐接近;经0.6 W/mL超声预处理,污泥水解酸化3 d后,SCOD释放率、VFAs浓度、TN释放率和NH4+-N释放率分别是未经处理污泥的1.85、2.63、1.85和1.41倍,而TP和PO43--P释放率较未经处理污泥仅分别多2.44和1.23个百分点。研究表明,控制适宜的声能密度、超声时间和水解酸化进程是超声预处理强化剩余污泥水解酸化效果的关键。

工艺条件对磷回收过程中鸟粪石沉淀颗粒粒径的影响

在鸟粪石沉淀法回收废水中磷的过程中,鸟粪石颗粒的大小将直接影响其沉淀的速率,进而影响鸟粪石的沉淀效果和磷的回收率。本文采用激光粒度分析仪测定鸟粪石的平均粒径,详细考察在小型连续搅拌反应-沉淀磷回收装置中不同的工艺条件下鸟粪石颗粒粒径的变化规律,并结合Stokes公式计算鸟粪石颗粒在废水出口处的沉降速率,为沉淀池的设计提供参考依据。结果表明:鸟粪石的平均粒径在12～25μm之间,沉降速率在5.46×10-5～2.37×10-4m/s之间。随着反应室水力停留时间的延长,鸟粪石颗粒的粒径逐渐增大,当停留时间超过18 min时,颗粒的粒径基本不变;随着沉淀室水力停留时间的延长,鸟粪石颗粒的平均粒径缓慢增大,当停留时间超过70 min后颗粒粒径的变化不大;鸟粪石颗粒的平均粒径在一定程度上受废水中磷初始浓度变化的影响,在磷初始浓度为62～128 mg/L时颗粒的粒径变化不大,当磷浓度为496 mg/L时粒径有较大增加,此时鸟粪石颗粒的沉降速率也大幅度增加;鸟粪石颗粒的平均粒径受pH值的影响不大;随氮磷摩尔比的增大,鸟粪石颗粒的平均粒径略有增加;随镁磷摩尔比的增大,鸟粪石颗粒的平均粒径逐渐减小,沉降速率则有明显的下降。     

不同类型污泥中非溶解性有机物水解产酸特性研究

分别以化学生物絮凝污泥(以下简称絮凝污泥)、初沉污泥和剩余污泥3种污泥为基质,对比研究了不同类型污泥中的非溶解性有机物的水解产酸特性,并进一步考察了水解酸化产物挥发性脂肪酸(VFAs)的产量和组成。结果表明,与初沉污泥和剩余污泥相比,絮凝污泥的水解酸化性能最优,稳定运行期间,絮凝污泥单位质量挥发性悬浮固体(VSS)的VFAs产量为(410.3±26.8)mg/g,分别为初沉污泥和剩余污泥的1.2、1.9倍。此外,絮凝污泥水解酸化产生的VFAs结构最优,乙酸占VFAs的比例高达64.3%(质量分数),絮凝污泥水解产酸发酵液中C/N、C/P均远高于典型城镇污水处理厂生化处理系统进水需求,可以作为后续生物脱氮除磷过程的优质补充碳源。

Prevention of struvite scaling in digesters combined with phosphorus removal and recovery--the FIX-Phos process

The fixation of phosphorus (FIX-Phos) combines struvite prevention and phosphorus recovery by the addition of calciumsilicatehydrate (CSH) particles into the anaerobic digester. The CSH fixates phosphorus as calcium phosphate and reduces the phosphorus concentration in the sludge water that allows for control of struvite formation. The phosphorus-containing recovery product can be separated and recovered from the digested sludge. In pilot plant experiments, 21% to 31% of phosphorus contained in digested sludge could be recovered when CSH was added at concentrations of 2 g/L to 3.5 g/L to a mixture of primary sludge and waste activated sludge (WAS) from enhanced biological phosphorus removal. The recovery product contained few heavy metals and a phosphorus content of 18 wt % P2O5, which allows for recycling as fertilizer. The fixation of phosphorus within the digester may increase wastewater sludge dewaterability. The phosphorus recycle stream to the headworks of the wastewater treatment plant is reduced.

The removal of phosphorus during wastewater treatment: a review

Phosphorus removal from wastewater can be achieved either through chemical removal, advanced biological treatment or a combination of both. The chemical removal of phosphorus involves the addition of calcium, iron and aluminium salts to achieve phosphorus precipitation by various mechanisms which are discussed. In addition, the effects of operating conditions, especially wastewater characteristics; sludge production in terms of quality and quantity; optimisation of chemical use and re-use; points of chemical addition combined with biological treatment; alternative chemical/physical treatments and examples of full-scale applications are also reviewed. Biological phosphorus removal is dependent upon the uptake of phosphorus in excess of normal bacterial metabolic requirements and is proposed as an alternative to chemical treatment. Early developments and the postulated removal mechanisms are reviewed; these include either natural chemical precipitation, enhanced biological removal, or a combination of both. The nature of excess biological phosphorus removal in activated sludge wastewater treatment plants is evaluated, considering various operating parameters, bacteriology and process designs.     

Full-scale use of glycogen-accumulating organisms for excess biological carbon removal

The purpose of this study has been to verify the efficient full-scale applicability of glycogen-accumulating organisms (GAOs) for excess biological carbon removal, that is, for removing more carbon substrate than the amount of available nutrients would allow in the conventional activated sludge process of microbial growth. This aims to cost-effectively overcome the problem of viscous bulking occurring in a fully aerated system, with nutrient deficiency. Analytical data measured at the wastewater treatment plant of the Balatonboglár (BB) winery in Balatonboglár, Hungary, containing consecutive unaerated and aerated activated sludge basins, reflected a high performance with efficient carbon removal and good sludge settling, without dosing any external nutrient source to the severely nitrogen- and phosphorous-deficient influent. Supplementary laboratory-scale batch experiments and microbiological tests verified the abundance of GAOs in the activated sludge system and elucidated their role in efficient excess biological carbon removal.

Investigation of OUR and NUR experiments for nitrogen and phosphorus removal with activated sludge: a lab-scale study

Activated sludge systems are widely used in wastewater treatment. Organic carbon removal and nutrient removal are important for stringent water discharge standards. Therefore, activated sludge systems are widely used to remove carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus in new wastewater treatment systems or upgrades of existing systems. The determination of system compounds and kinetic parameters for modelling of these systems are important. For this purpose, respirometric measurements are used to reveal the electron consumption rate of biomass. In order to determine OUR (oxygen uptake rate) and NUR (nitrate uptake rate) parameters, a laboratory scale activated sludge system, including anaerobic, anoxic and aerobic zones, was developed. The performance of the system was continuously controlled from influent and effluent samples. OUR and NUR measurements indicated the kind of nitrogen-phosphorus removal systems required. Moreover, phosphorus uptake in the anoxic zone was investigated. It was found that phosphorus uptake in the anaerobic zone was related to substrate type consumed biologically. The OUR and NUR were found to be lower than in continuous activated sludge measurements. This may be because the mixed culture of the system affected the system performance, owing to competition between denitrification bacteria and poly-P bacteria.
