好氧污泥颗粒化过程的影响因素分析

影响好氧颗粒污泥性质的因素多且复杂,具有灰色系统的特点.应用了灰色关联分析方法对好氧颗粒污泥的重要参数污泥体积指数(SVI)、沉降速率、颗粒粒径和污泥浓度(MLSS)进行了关联影响分析.结果表明:对颗粒污泥SVI的影响顺序为沉降速率＞颗粒粒径＞ MLSS,说明沉降速率对活性污泥的形态转变和颗粒化过程的作用最明显,SVI可作为评判颗粒化进程的一个理想指标;沉降速率对MLSS的影响最弱;颗粒粒径的最佳值为1.3～1.5 mm,此时,颗粒粒径对SVI降低的贡献最大,从而使颗粒污泥的沉降性能得到很大改善,并且使MLSS达到最大.

高负荷条件下好氧颗粒污泥同步脱氮除碳特性及微生物群落结构分析

为研究高负荷条件下好氧颗粒污泥的形成过程、同步脱氮除碳效果和微生物群落结构特点,构建了一个序批式反应器(sequencing batch reactor,SBR)。结果表明,C/N=40进水条件下能够完成颗粒化,成熟后的好氧颗粒污泥呈表面光滑结构紧实的椭球体。随着颗粒粒径增大,其比好氧速率提高、含水率下降、沉降性能变好、生物量增加。颗粒形成过程产生的胞外聚合物(extracellular polymeric substances,EPS)先增加后受水质冲击减少,之后又明显提高,整个过程中多糖与蛋白质之比(PS/PN)持续下降,EPS中的蛋白质对颗粒的形成影响较大。SBR中的好氧颗粒污泥能够同时高效去除进水中的COD、N H_4~+-N和TN,去除率分别为94%、96%和93%,反应器的反硝化性能良好。C/N=40时,采用MiSeq高通量测序方法对成熟好氧颗粒污泥中的群落结构进行研究,发现存在促进颗粒化的优势菌门(包括Saccharibacteria、Proteobacteria、Bacteroidetes、Actinobacteria、Firmicutes和Chloroflexi)。同时,在颗粒污泥中,异养硝化、好氧/缺氧反硝化菌属丰度较高,表明异养硝化-好氧/缺氧反硝化菌属可能存在于好氧颗粒污泥中。

The role of SBR mixed liquor volume exchange ratio in aerobic granulation

Four sequencing batch reactors (SBR) were operated at different volume exchange ratios of 20-80%. Results showed that a rapid aerobic granulation could be achieved in SBR run at high volume exchange ratios, and the characteristics of mature aerobic granules in terms of mean size, SVI, granule fraction, EPS and calcium content were all closely related to the volume exchange ratio applied to SBR. To interpret the role of volume exchange ratio in aerobic granulation, a concept of minimum settling velocity of bioparticles was proposed, which is the function of both settling time and volume exchange ratio. It was further demonstrated that the effect of volume exchange ratio on aerobic granulation in SBR would be realized through selecting the minimum settling velocity of bioparticles. In fact, the minimum settling velocity would serve as a major selection pressure exerted on bioparticles. It appeared from this study that the production of EPS was stimulated significantly by high volume exchange ratio, which was associated with marketable accumulation of calcium ion in aerobic granulation. It is expected that this study may offer insights into the mechanism of aerobic granulation.     

Correlation analysis of major control factors for the formation and stabilization of aerobic granule

In recent years, aerobic granular sludge technology has demonstrated significant advantages in areas such as the sludge–water separation, residual sludge minimization, simultaneous biological nitrogen and phosphorus removal, and toxic organic compounds degradation in biological wastewater treatment. However, the critical control factors and their relation during sludge granulation have not been revealed indeed, and the stability of aerobic granular sludge is still not good. The Gray’s correlation analysis was used to investigate the relationship of aerobic granular characteristics and control factors in the study. Results showed that the organic loading rate, hydraulic shear stress, and sludge settling time were the major factors affecting the aerobic sludge granulation, and the associated regulating strategy was important for the stabilization of granular sludge system. Based on above results, the mechanism of aerobic sludge granulation was proposed, and it was expected to favor the application of aerobic granular sludge technology.     

Effects of extracellular polymeric substances on aerobic granulation in sequencing batch reactors

The effects of extracellular polymeric substances on aerobic granulation in sequencing batch reactors were investigated by evaluating the content and compositions of extracellular polymeric substances, and the relationship between extracellular polymeric substances composition and surface properties of glucose-fed aerobic granules. The results showed that extracellular polymeric substances could affect surface properties of cells, such as surface charge and hydrophobicity, enhance polymeric interaction and promote aerobic granulation. Moreover, extracellular polymeric substances were produced mainly in the exponential phase, and served as carbon and energy source in starvation phase during granulation process, thus regulating the growth of bacteria in the interior and exterior of granules, and maintaining the integrality of granules.     

高盐废水体系运行模式对活性污泥颗粒化过程的影响

好氧颗粒污泥(AGS)技术在高盐废水处理领域具有广阔应用潜力,高盐胁迫条件下运行模式对造粒过程影响尚不清晰。采用3个序批式反应器(SBR),探究好氧模式(R1)、厌氧/好氧模式(R2为厌氧推流进水30 min;R3为厌氧推流进水120 min)对活性污泥颗粒化过程及高盐废水处理效能的影响。结果发现,R1、R2和R3造粒时间无显著差异(分别在第13、13、10 d实现完全颗粒化),而R3培养的颗粒结构更致密、胞外蛋白/胞外多糖(PN/PS)含量较高。3个SBR均可在高盐废水体系实现高TOC去除率(>97%);R1和R2的NH₄⁺-N去除率大于96%,而R3在50%~70%波动,可能是硫酸盐还原菌(Desulfovibrio和Fusibacter)在长厌氧推流进水过程产生的S^2-抑制了硝化反应。本研究结果可为高盐废水体系活性污泥造粒过程提供参考。     

Roles of ATP-dependent N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) and extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) in aerobic granulation

Aerobic granules which form through a cell-to-cell self-immobilization process have been intensively studied and developed for wastewater biotreatment. However, the microbiological origin of this phenomenon is still largely unknown. This study investigated the possible role of metabolic energy in the development of aerobic granules. Results showed that aerobic granulation was positively related to ATP-dependent N-acylhomoserine lactones (AHLs) and extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs) production. Inhibited ATP synthesis by a chemical uncoupler, 3,3′,4′,5-tetrachlorosalicylanilide, led to significant reduction of AHLs and EPSs production, which in turn prevented aerobic granulation. This study for the first time demonstrated the involvement of ATP-dependent AHLs in aerobic granulation.
