两相厌氧处理有机废水快速启动试验研究

针对试验设计的两相厌氧反应器(TPAD)进行启动研究,寻求快速启动的方法. 试验采用人工配水,以淀粉、葡萄糖作为主要碳源. 采用低负荷启动方式,快速提高进水ρ(COD_Cr),缩短水力停留时间(HRT),使产酸相尽快维持在酸性最佳条件下. 间歇投加粉末状CaO调节产酸相出水pH在7.0±0.3,从而保证产甲烷相在最佳条件下. 经过36 d的启动过程,在产酸反应器和产甲烷反应器中均出现了性能良好的厌氧颗粒污泥. 启动后第36天,当两相厌氧反应器的水力停留时间(HRT)为17.03 h,COD_Cr负荷(VLR)为8.46 kg/(m3·d),水力负荷为0.059 m3/(m2·h)时,系统整体COD_Cr去除率达到最优,为96.66%.      

Determination of the archaeal and bacterial communities in two-phase and single-stage anaerobic systems by 454 pyrosequencing

2-Phase anaerobic digestion (AD), where the acidogenic phase was operated at 2 day hydraulic retention time (HRT) and the methanogenic phase at 10 days HRT, had been evaluated to determine if it could provide higher organic reduction and methane production than the conventional single-stage AD (also operated at 12 days HRT). 454 pyrosequencing was performed to determine and compare the microbial communities. The acidogenic reactor of the 2-phase system yielded a unique bacterial community of the lowest richness and diversity, while bacterial profiles of the methanogenic reactor closely followed the single-stage reactor. All reactors were predominated by hydrogenotrophic methanogens, mainly Methanolinea. Unusually, the acidogenic reactor contributed up to 24% of total methane production in the 2-phase system. This could be explained by the presence of Methanosarcina and Methanobrevibacter, and their activities could also help regulate reactor alkalinity during high loading conditions through carbon dioxide production. The enrichment of hydrolytic and acidogenic Porphyromonadaceae, Prevotellaceae, Ruminococcaceae and unclassified Bacteroidetes in the acidogenic reactor would have contributed to the improved sludge volatile solids degradation, and ultimately the overall 2-phase system''s performance. Syntrophic acetogenic microorganisms were absent in the acidogenic reactor but present in the downstream methanogenic reactor, indicating the retention of various metabolic pathways also found in a single-stage system. The determination of key microorganisms further expands our understanding of the complex biological functions in AD process.     

Effect of nitrite on hydrolysis-acidification, biogas production and microbial community in semi-continuous two-phase anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge

Previous study found that the pre-treatment of sewage sludge with nitrite improves the biogas production during the mono/two-phase anaerobic digestion (AD) using batch biochemical methane potential tests. In this study, the effects of nitrite on hydrolysis-acidification, biogas production, volatile solids destruction and microbial composition in semi-continuous two-phase AD of sewage sludge were investigated. The addition of nitrite promotes sludge organic matter solubilization (+484%) and VFAs production (+98.9%), and causes an increase in the VS degradation rate during the AD process (+8.7%). The comparison of biogas production from the acidogenic and methanogenic reactors with or without the addition of nitrite implies that the nitrite has no significant effect on the overall biogas production of two-phase sludge AD process. High-throughput sequencing analysis shows that the microbial communities of bacteria and archaea in two-phase AD reactors significantly changes after the addition of nitrite. Vulcanibacillus (bacteria) and Candidatus Methanofastidiosum (archaea) become the dominant genera in the acidogenic and methanogenic reactors with the nitrite respectively. These findings provide new insights about using nitrite to promote the organic matter degradation of sewage sludge in a semi-continuous two-phase AD system.     

热碱解-中温两相厌氧消化工艺运行效能及抗生素抗性基因(ARGs)变化研究

为实现剩余污泥稳定化,并评估剩余污泥的生态环境风险,本研究采用热碱解-中温两相厌氧消化(Thermal-Alkaline Pretreatment-Mesophilic Two Phase Anaerobic Digestion,taMTPAD)工艺处理剩余污泥.考察了热碱解条件及在20、16和10 d 3个不同的总水力停留时间(Total Hydraulic Retention Time,tHRT)下,taMTPAD工艺的运行效果及消化前后抗生素抗性基因(ARGs)的变化.结果表明,对于taMTPAD工艺,当tHRT=10 d时,产酸相的挥发性脂肪酸(VFA)积累量和产甲烷相的日产气量达到最大值,但对ARGs的控制效果最差;tHRT=16 d时反应器的运行效果与tHRT=20 d时接近,但对磺胺类ARGs的控制效果不如tHRT=20 d时;当tHRT=20 d时,挥发性固体(VS)去除率和ARGs的削减效果最好.对比tHRT=10 d时的taMTPAD工艺和MTPAD(两相厌氧消化)工艺,发现对剩余污泥进行热碱预处理能提升产酸相150.32%的VFA产量和产甲烷相89.3%的甲烷产率,但同时热碱解却使得厌氧消化后污泥部分ARGs(sul1、tetO、tetW、tetX)相对丰度回升.研究表明,延长tHRT有利于taMTPAD工艺削减ARGs和VS,而缩短tHRT则有利于产气.     

结合态磷化氢在厌氧微生物产酸过程中的释放行为

通过动态实验分别研究了在产甲烷和酸化阶段厌氧污泥中结合态磷化氢的变化,并采用静态厌氧实验进一步阐明在酸化阶段有机酸的积累对磷化氢的影响及消失速率.结果表明,产甲烷阶段,厌氧颗粒污泥磷化氢浓度随高度升高呈下降趋势;酸化阶段,当pH达到4～5时会导致厌氧反应器颗粒污泥中结合态磷化氢消失.静态模拟实验研究表明,随着酸化程度的增加,厌氧污泥中结合态磷化氢消失速率加快.厌氧污泥在葡萄糖浓度2000mg·L^-1培养2d后,结合态磷化氢浓度从最初的1.76ng·kg^-1降低到0.09ng·kg^-1,磷化氢消失速率最高达到0.84ng·(kg·d)^-1;而葡萄糖浓度400mg·L^-1培养2d后,结合态磷化氢消失速率仅为0.27ng·(kg·d)^-1;随着进一步培养,当磷化氢浓度降低到一定程度后,消失速率也相应下降.     

热水解时间对污泥厌氧消化系统微生物群落结构影响分析

为评估热水解时间对北京市大兴区某污水处理厂污泥厌氧消化系统微生物群落结构的影响,利用Illumina MiSeq高通量测序方法,分析了不同热水解时间（15、30和45 min）对初沉污泥和剩余活性污泥厌氧消化系统中微生物群落结构及其多样性的影响因素.结果表明,消化污泥优势类群主要分布在厚壁菌门（Firmicutes）、阴沟单胞菌门（Cloacimonadota）、绿弯菌门（Chloroflexi）和同力菌门（Synergistota）,相对丰度之和超过60%,相对丰度最高菌属为W5,占比为20.8%~54.5%,表现为少数优势物种的高丰度特征.热水解污泥厌氧消化过程中,高挥发性脂肪酸和氨氮浓度导致嗜乙酸产甲烷菌相对丰度减少,嗜氢产甲烷途径多于嗜乙酸产甲烷途径.环境因子关联分析结果显示,消化进泥可溶蛋白质、消化进泥pH值、消化出泥氨氮和热水解时间是影响微生物群落结构的4个主要环境因子,其中消化出泥氨氮对产甲烷菌属的影响最大,呈负相关关系.热水解时间与Chao指数和Shannon指数均呈负相关,较长热水解时间不利于提高厌氧消化过程微生物菌群丰富度和多样性.     

外加铁对城市污泥厌氧消化产甲烷的作用

高浓度中温厌氧膜生物反应器处理城市污水厂污泥的厌氧消化效果

利用厌氧消化技术处理城市污泥等有机废弃物,可以生成以甲烷为主要成分的沼气,同时实现废弃物减量化。传统的污泥厌氧消化技术存在水力停留时间长,处理水质差,反应器对环境变动敏感,运行不稳定等缺陷。使用有效体积15 L的实验室规模厌氧膜生物反应器（AnMBR）对初沉污泥与剩余污泥混合的城市污水厂污泥进行高浓度厌氧消化处理。AnMBR通过膜过滤方式将悬浮固体（SS）截留在反应器内,增强了反应器运行的稳定性并促进有机物的分解。AnMBR反应器在中温35℃,HRT为15 d,有机负荷为4.66 g-COD/（L·d）的条件下进行了为期155 d的长期运行实验。实验过程中,反应器运行稳定,没有出现氨氮抑制和挥发性脂肪酸的积累。沼气收率为0.48 L/g-VS,甲烷平均含量为63.32%。膜过滤水中COD浓度为0.77 g/L,COD去除率高达98%以上。通过物质衡算,基质总COD的54.38%转化为甲烷,仅有0.6%残留在膜过滤水中。在保持反应器污泥浓度25 g/L的高浓度条件下,实现了工作模式为4 min抽吸,1 min休息,平均膜通量9.6 L/（m2·h）的连续稳定运行。通过膜阻力抵抗值的计算,污染膜总阻力为11.87×1012/m,其中附着在膜表面的泥饼层和导致膜孔闭塞的有机层为膜污染形成的主要因素。通过长期连续实验的产甲烷情况及膜过滤效果,验证了AnMBR在有机废弃物减量化和能源回收应用上的可行性。     

Influence of temperature on performance of anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste

The influence of temperature on the performance of anaerobic reactors for treating the organic fraction of municipal sohd waste （OFMSW） was studied. Batch digestion of OFMSW was carded out for 32 d at different temperature （25℃, 35℃, 45℃ and 55℃） conditions for total solid concentrations （TS） 17% with the ratio of total organic carbon to nitrogen （C/N） being, 25：1 respectively, while keeping other parameters constant such as inoculum, start-up pH, reactor volume （2 L） and so on. Temperature can influence the methanogenic bacteria activity, accordingly inhibiting the OFMSW biodegradation and stabilization efficiency. Anaerobic reactors excelled at TS reduction, total volatile solid reduction, chemical oxygen demand reduction, increasing cumulative biogas production, whose rate was at temperature （35℃ and 55℃） conditions. Methane concentration in the biogas was above 65% in four reactors. In addition, the fluctuation of temperatures resulted in the biogas production variation. The data obtained indicated that temperature had a significant influence on anaerobic process.

微波及其组合工艺强化污泥厌氧消化研究

为提高剩余污泥的厌氧消化效能和脱水性能,考察了微波及其组合污泥预处理工艺的强化污泥厌氧消化效果,同时考察了预处理-厌氧消化过程的污泥理化特征及其脱水性能.结果表明,微波及其组合工艺可以强化污泥厌氧消化产甲烷,其中微波-过氧化氢-碱(0.2)的强化效果最为显著,不仅30 d累计产甲烷量比对照组增加了13.34%,而且产甲烷速率也得到了提升.与单独微波处理相比,过氧化氢、碱的投加显著提高了溶解性COD的释放量,这表明微波、过氧化氢、碱之间的协同作用能有效破碎污泥,进而强化厌氧消化效果;微波-酸预处理后的污泥具有良好的脱水性能,毛细吸水时间(CST)只有9.85 s,污泥脱水性能的改善与其表面电性、粒径分布的变化密切相关;不同预处理条件下的污泥经过厌氧消化后,污泥脱水性能较为接近.

Microbial community structures in an integrated two-phase anaerobic bioreactor fed by fruit vegetable wastes and wheat straw

The microbial community structures in an integrated two-phase anaerobic reactor（ITPAR）were investigated by 16 S r DNA clone library technology. The 75 L reactor was designed with a 25 L rotating acidogenic unit at the top and a 50 L conventional upflow methanogenic unit at the bottom, with a recirculation connected to the two units. The reactor had been operated for 21 stages to co-digest fruit/vegetable wastes and wheat straw, which showed a very good biogas production and decomposition of cellulosic materials. The results showed that many kinds of cellulose and glycan decomposition bacteria related with Bacteroidales,Clostridiales and Syntrophobacterales were dominated in the reactor, with more bacteria community diversities in the acidogenic unit. The methanogens were mostly related with Methanosaeta, Methanosarcina, Methanoculleus, Methanospirillum and Methanobacterium; the predominating genus Methanosaeta, accounting for 40.5%, 54.2%, 73.6% and 78.7% in four samples from top to bottom, indicated a major methanogenesis pathway by acetoclastic methanogenesis in the methanogenic unit. The beta diversity indexes illustrated a more similar distribution of bacterial communities than that of methanogens between acidogenic unit and methanogenic unit. The differentiation of methanogenic community composition in two phases, as well as pH values and volatile fatty acid（VFA） concentrations confirmed the phase separation of the ITPAR. Overall, the results of this study demonstrated that the special designing of ITPAR maintained a sufficient number of methanogens, more diverse communities and stronger syntrophic associations among microorganisms, which made two phase anaerobic digestion of cellulosic materials more efficient.     

A comparative study on the alternating mesophilic and thermophilic two-stage anaerobic digestion of food waste

An alternating mesophilic and thermophilic two stage anaerobic digestion(AD) process was conducted. The temperature of the acidogenic(A) and methanogenic(M) reactors was controlled as follows: System 1(S1) mesophilic A-mesophilic M;(S2) mesophilic A-thermophilic M; and(S3)thermophilic A-mesophilic M. Initially, the AD reactor was acclimatized and inoculated with digester sludge. Food waste was added with the soluble chemical oxygen demand(SCOD) concentrations of41.4–47.0 g/L and volatile fatty acids of 2.0–3.2 g/L. Based on the results, the highest total chemical oxygen demand removal(86.6%) was recorded in S2 while S3 exhibited the highest SCOD removal(96.6%). Comparing S1 with S2, total solids removal increased by 0.5%; S3 on the other hand decreased by 0.1 % as compared to S1. However, volatile solids(VS) removal in S1, S2, and S3was 78.5%, 81.7%, and 79.2%, respectively. S2 also exhibited the highest CH4 content, yield, and production rate of 70.7%, 0.44 L CH4/g VSadded, and 1.23 L CH4/(L·day), respectively. Bacterial community structure revealed that the richness, diversity, evenness, and dominance of S2 were high except for the archaeal community. The terminal restriction fragments dendrogram also revealed that the microbial community of the acidogenic and methanogenic reactors in S2 was distinct. Therefore,S2 was the best among the systems for the operation of two-stage AD of food waste in terms of CH4production, nutrient removal, and microbial community structure.     

不同类型秸秆对污泥厌氧消化特性及细菌群落结构的影响

为促进污水处理厂污泥及农作物秸秆的资源化利用,探讨不同类型秸秆（玉米、小麦、水稻）对污泥厌氧消化特性、产气效果及细菌群落结构的影响,在中温〔（35±1）℃〕下,研究了污泥与秸秆按不同质量比（1:0、1:0.5、1:1、1:1.5）联合厌氧消化对污泥C/N（碳氮比）和厌氧消化环境中pH、ρ（NH₄+-N）、ρ（VFAs）（VFAs为挥发性脂肪酸）、日均沼气产量及φ（CH₄）、细菌群落的特征变化,以未添加秸秆的污泥厌氧消化为CK（对照）.结果表明:不同类型秸秆的添加对厌氧消化体系的pH、ρ（NH₄+-N）、ρ（VFAs）均产生显著影响,秸秆的加入明显提高了厌氧消化体系的产气量.联合厌氧消化可通过优化厌氧消化底物的C/N,从而增加ρ（VFAs）和φ（CH₄）.其中,污泥与玉米秸秆质量比为1:1.5时对厌氧消化的促进作用最为显著;其沼气日产量为2 303.08 mL,比CK（536.15 mL）提高了3倍以上,而沼气中φ（CH₄）最高为54.49%,比CK（37.07%）提高46.99%.此外,不同类型秸秆的添加也可通过改变细菌群落结构从而促进秸秆降解,增加ρ（VFAs）和提高沼气产量,特别是添加秸秆后,Bacteroidetes会逐渐取代Proteobacteria成为主要的产酸菌种,从而导致ρ（VFAs）增加.研究显示,污泥与秸秆联合厌氧消化可改善污泥营养结构,改变细菌群落结构,提高沼气产量.
