污泥与餐厨垃圾发酵产氢种泥预处理方法比较

以剩余污泥和餐厨垃圾作为混合基质进行厌氧发酵产氢批式试验,比较六种常用的产氢种泥预处理方法[热处理、化学抑制剂2-溴乙基磺酸钠(BESA)处理、酸处理、碱处理、连续曝气、重复曝气]对产氢的影响。结果表明,未经预处理的种泥氢气产率最低,且有明显的吸氢和产甲烷现象。BESA处理、酸处理、连续曝气和重复曝气种泥产氢效果较好,其中重复曝气预处理种泥氢气产率最高,为86.9 ml-H2/g-VSadded,对产甲烷菌有明显抑制。热处理和碱处理种泥产氢效果较差,反应后期出现吸氢反应并有明显的甲烷累积现象。发酵产氢过程中p H值从中性下降到5.0左右,对产甲烷菌活性也具有一定的抑制作用。

多级逆流工艺促进城市污泥厌氧发酵生产挥发性脂肪酸

采用一种新型的厌氧发酵工艺——多级逆流发酵工艺对城市污泥进行厌氧发酵, 实现高效产挥发性脂肪酸的目的。结果表明, 实验条件下应用多级逆流发酵工艺, 挥发性脂肪酸浓度与产率分别达到(10.5±0.5) g/L和0.20 gVFAs/ gVS, 与普通厌氧发酵工艺相比, 分别提高了31%和54%。此外, 在多级逆流工艺中, 底物有机质去除率可达50%, 较普通厌氧发酵提高了37%。进一步分析多级逆流工艺产酸的机制, 发现产酸效率的提高在于降低了发酵产物对厌氧产酸细菌的抑制效应, 并且工艺的VFAs产率以及有机质去除率分别取决于第一级和第三级厌氧发酵过程。因此, 城市污泥采用多级逆流工艺厌氧发酵不仅能够有效促进挥发性脂肪酸的生成, 而且能够较大程度上提高污泥中有机质的去除率。     

Enhanced Methane Production from Anaerobic Digestion of Disintegrated and Deproteinized Excess Sludge

To improve biogas yield and methane content in anaerobic digestion of excess sludge from the wastewater treatment plant, the sludge was disintegrated by using various methods (sonication, alkaline and thermal treatments). Since disintegrated sludge contains a high concentration of soluble proteins, the resulting metabolite, ammonia, may inhibit methane generation. Therefore, the effects of protein removal from disintegrated sludge on methane production were also studied. As a result, an obvious enhancement of biogas generation was observed by digesting disintegrated sludge (biogas yield increased from 15 to 36 ml/g COD_added·day for the raw excess sludge and the sonicated sludge, respectively). The quality of biogas was also improved by removing proteins from the disintegrated sludge. About 50% (w/w) of soluble proteins were removed from the suspension of disintegrated sludge by salting out using 35 g MgCl₂·6H₂O/l and also by isoelectric point precipitation at pH 3.3. For deproteinized sludge, methane production increased by 19%, and its yield increased from 145 ml/g COD_removed to 325 ml/g COD_removed. Therefore, the yield and quality of biogas produced from digestion of excess sludge can be enhanced by disintegrating the sludge and subsequent protein removal.

Impact of Anaerobic and Aerobic Processes on PolyChloroBiphenyl Removal in Contaminated Sewage Sludge

Aerobic and anaerobic biodegradation of six priority PCBs was investigated in continuous stirred tank reactors fed with naturally contaminated sewage sludge. Anaerobic and aerobic abiotic losses were higher for the lightly chlorinated PCBs but remained for all PCBs below 20%. Under strict methanogenic conditions, PCB removals were about 40% whatever PCB molecular weight or their degree of chlorination. However, considering abiotic losses, the heaviest PCBs were more efficiently anaerobically biodegraded probably because of higher dechlorination rates. The aerating sludge process enhanced removal of the lightest chlorinated PCBs from 40% up to 100%, while removal rates of the heaviest PCBs remained around 40%. Although the mesophilic aerobic process exhibits better removal efficiencies because of operating conditions, the results suggest that PCB biodegradation was strongly limited by their bioavailability in naturally contaminated sludge, under both redox conditions. Indeed, since PCB removal was closely linked to the solid reduction rates, PCB bioavailability was likely the limiting factor for biodegradation. As a consequence, the raw PCB concentrations (in mg kg^–1_{dry weight}) which are concerned by legislative procedures did not decrease sufficiently in both processes to reach a limit value fulfilling the current French/European regulation about PCB contents in sewage sludge before spreading on agricultural land.

Abundance, Diversity, and Dynamics of Viruses on Microorganisms in Activated Sludge Processes

We examined the abundance of viruses on microorganisms in activated sludge and the dynamics of their community structure. Direct counting with epifluorescence microscopy and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) were applied to 20 samples from 14 full-scale wastewater treatment plants (wwtps) treating municipal, industrial, or animal wastewater. Furthermore, to observe the dynamics of viral community structure over time, a laboratory-scale sequencing batch reactor was operated for 58 days. The concentrations of virus particles in the wwtps, as quantified by epifluorescence microscopy, ranged from 4.2 × 10⁷ to 3.0 × 10⁹ mL⁻¹. PFGE, improved by the introduction of a higher concentration of Tris–EDTA buffer in the DNA extraction step, was successfully used to profile DNA viruses in the activated sludge. Most of the samples from different wwtps commonly had bands in the 40–70 kb range. In the monitoring of viral DNA size distribution in the laboratory-scale reactor, some bands were observed stably throughout the experimental period, some emerged during the operation, and others disappeared. Rapid emergence and disappearance of two intense bands within 6 days was observed. Our data suggest that viruses—especially those associated with microorganisms—are abundant and show dynamic behavior in activated sludge.     

Application of Image Analysis Techniques in Activated Sludge Wastewater Treatment Processes

Image analytical techniques have been extensively developed to evaluate complex microbial aggregates such as sludge flocs and biofilms.
