TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention belongs to the technical field of treating and transforming organic solid wastes into resources, in particular relates to a method of treating organic solid wastes and a biological organic fertilizer prepared by the method.
BACKGROUND More than 10 billion tons of solid organic wastes are produced in China every year. If organic matters and plant nutrients which are rich in the wastes can be converted into organic fertilizers, there will be a great potential in improving a recycling rate of resources. Traditional aerobic fermentation is a process converting organic matters of organic materials into more stable humus, generating products of organic fertilizers and soil conditioners. The traditional process is simple to operate and requires just a little investment, but it has many disadvantages, such as large floor area, long production cycle (about 1-2 months or even longer), high labor costs, susceptibility to regional and climatic conditions, secondary pollution (for example, odor), and incomplete decomposition (with a low humus coefficient and a relatively high content of fulvic acid). Compared with traditional composting, ultra-high temperature aerobic composting technology can effectively increase the temperature of compost to promote degradation of organic matters, resulting in materials humidified to a larger extent, and effectively kill pathogenic microorganisms. Moreover, the technology can shorten a fermentation cycle (about 49 d) and reduce cost of composting organic solid wastes. But defects are also obvious, for example, extreme thermophilic bacteria are at a disadvantage in competition with local microorganisms since they can be activated only at a certain temperature (above 65°C) and do not work at an early stage of fermentation (temperature accumulation section), that is, during degradation of macromolecular organic matters. We all know that there is an extremely strong correlation between degradation of organic matters in materials and humification of the materials. Although extreme thermophilic bacteria can result in materials humidified to a larger extent, humification is still limited by the degradation efficiency of macromolecular organic matters at an early stage. Efforts are made in order to solve the problems of the existing technology such as the incomplete decomposition in traditional high temperature composting and low degradation efficiency of organic matters at the early stage of an ultra-high temperature fermentation. Improvement of a current process of producing a biological organic fertilizer with organic solid wastes, and development of a new technology for treatment of organic solid wastes in production of a biological organic fertilizer have become the key to solving the current problems with the current biological organic fertilizer.
OBJECT OF THE INVENTION It is the object of the present invention to substantially overcome or at least ameliorate one or more of the disadvantages of the prior art or to provide a useful alternative.
SUMMARY In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a method of efficiently treating organic solid wastes based on a two-phase aerobic fermentation and use thereof to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the existing method of treating organic solid wastes. In one aspect, the present invention provides a method of treating organic solid wastes, comprising the following steps: step (1): mixing a wet material of organic solid wastes with a pulverized auxiliary material to obtain a mixed material having a water content of 45-55%; step (2): a first fermentation at a high temperature inoculating the mixed material obtained in step (1) with a microorganism for degradation at a high temperature in an amount of 0.3-0.5% of the weight of the mixed material obtained in step (1), aerating the mixed material to ensure the material is sufficiently aerobic, performing treatment of turning over and mixing intermittently, and maintaining fermentation at a high temperature of 65-75°C for 2-6 d to obtain an intermediate material; step (3): a second fermentation at an ultra-high temperature inoculating the intermediate material obtained in step (2) with extreme thermophilic bacteria in an amount of 0.1-0.5% of the intermediate material obtained in step (2), turning well, aerating the intermediate material to ensure the material is sufficiently aerobic, maintaining a maximum temperature of the intermediate material at 85-90°C for 2-5 d, and then subjecting the material to static fermentation for 18-21 d. In another embodiment, the present invention relates to a two-phase aerobic fermentation technology for efficient treatment of organic solid wastes, which includes an organic matter decomposition stage and a high temperature humification stage in two independent fermentation devices. The technology achieves cooperative fermentation based on microbial relationships, for example interspecific cooperation and commensalism. Two independent fermentation devices are used for the organic matter decomposition stage and the high temperature humification stage to provide best conditions for the microorganism for degradation at a high temperature and the extreme thermophilic bacteria respectively. Therefore, the present invention avoids inhibition between microorganisms and environmental inhibition on microorganisms which exist in a single-phase aerobic fermentation process. Moreover, the present invention can have a higher microbial activity than the single phase aerobic fermentation and thus improve a treatment effect. The present invention enables more effective and stable degradation of the organic wastes by the first fermentation at a high temperature and the second fermentation at an ultra-high temperature. Preferably, in step (2), the microorganism for degradation at a high temperature is selected from one or more of protease-producing aerobic bacteria, amylase-producing aerobic bacteria, cellulase-producing aerobic bacteria, lignin-degrading aerobic bacteria or refractory organic matter-degrading aerobic bacteria; where the refractory organic matter includes one or more of lignin, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon compound, an organophosphorus farm chemical or a heterocyclic compound. Preferably, the microorganism for degradation at a high temperature is selected from one or more of Bacillus subtilis, Aspergillus niger, white rot fungi, and thermoactinomyces. More preferably, an effective bacteria ratio of the Bacillus subtilis, the Aspergillus niger, the white rot fungi, and the thermoactinomyces is 1:1:1:1. Preferably, the extreme thermophilic bacteria are selected from one or more of Thermus thermophilus, Calditerricolayamamurae, and Calditerricolasatsumensis. Preferably, a bacteria concentration of the microorganism for degradation at a high temperature is above 2.51x108 CFU/g; and in step (3), a bacteria concentration of the extreme thermophilic bacteria is above 1.52x10' CFU/g. Preferably, in step (3), the intermediate material has a pile height of 0.5-9 m. Since the fermentation of the material at an ultra-high temperature has a relatively high initial temperature of 65-75°C, there is no need to reduce the pile height to ensure a heating rate, thereby breaking the pile height limitation of less than 2 m in a traditional aerobic fermentation with a low efficiency. An increased pile height of the present inventive means an increased amount of material which can be treated at one time. Preferably, in step (1), the wet material of organic solid wastes has a water content of 55 % and is selected from one or more of livestock and poultry manure, meal waste or urban sludge; and a weight ratio of the wet material of organic solid wastes to the auxiliary material is 20:(2-6). Preferably, the auxiliary material is selected from one or more of grain bran, sawdust, rice straw, wheat straw or corn straw. Preferably, a degradation rate of protein, fat, polysaccharide, and cellulose organic matter in the organic solid wastes is 40-70%. In another embodiment, the present invention combines a first fermentation at a high temperature and a second aerobic fermentation at an ultra-high temperature to perform cooperative fermentations based on microbial relationships, for example, interspecific cooperation and commensalism. In order to ensure a product of the first fermentation at a high temperature suitable for feeding the second fermentation at an ultra-high temperature, the present invention optimizes an initial water content, a material ratio, a pile height and time for the first fermentation at a high temperature and key process parameters such as a pile height and time for the second fermentation at an ultra-high temperature. It is found in a study of effect of change of water content on aerobic cooperative fermentation that, if the initial water content of the first aerobic fermentation at a high temperature is <45%, ordinary mesophilic and thermophilic microorganisms cannot have an activity of more than 2.51x108 CFU/g during the first aerobic fermentation at a high temperature, which affects decomposition of the wastes (<30%). If the initial water content is >55%, the water content of the product in the first aerobic fermentation at a high temperature will be >40%, which leads to problems such as air permeability is at a low level in the raw materials in the second aerobic fermentation at an ultra-high temperature, and the maximum temperature cannot reach above 85°C due to excessive heat dissipation through water evaporation, affecting the final fermentation effect. At the same time, we conduct a time control study on cooperative fermentation. The experimental results show that, if the treating time of the first aerobic fermentation at a high temperature is <2 d, the degradation of the macromolecular organic matters in the waste is less than 30%, resulting in excessive nutrients to be degraded in the subsequent aerobic fermentation at an ultra-high temperature. The excessive nutrients affect rapid growth of the extreme thermophilic bacteria and the content of undecomposed nutrients will be >60%, which affects the degradation effect of the organic matters in the entire process. If the treating time of the first aerobic fermentation at a high temperature is more than 6 d, <40% nutrients can be used, the maximum temperature cannot be maintained for more than 2 d, and the killing rate of harmful microorganisms cannot reach 100% in the subsequent second fermentation at an ultra-high temperature, greatly reducing economic benefits.
In summary, if the process parameters of the present invention are not used, there will be adverse effects such as difficulty in starting the second aerobic fermentation at an ultra-high temperature and prolonged fermentation time, and many other problems such as incomplete decomposition of the final material and hidden harm. By optimizing the process conditions, for the first fermentation at a high temperature in step (2) of the present invention, the concentration of the microorganism for degradation at a high temperature can be increased to more than 5 times of the initial concentration within 2 d, and a high temperature period can be reached in only 20-30 h. Thus, macromolecular organic matters can be rapidly degraded with a degradation rate of 30-50%. Moreover, it takes only 2 d to kill pathogen with an Ascaris egg killing rate of > 95%, and fecal coliform <10 5/kg. For the second fermentation at an ultra-high temperature in step (3), the material can be rapidly decomposed, and the harmlessness and humification of the material can be strengthened with an Ascaris egg killing rate of 100%, fecal coliform <10 3/kg and total amount of humus increased by 20-120% of the original amount. In addition, the humification effect mainly comes from humic acid. Thus, it can be seen that the method of the present invention has high feasibility, simple operation, short production cycle (only 21-28 d), and high output with stable product quality. The method of the present invention achieves a win-win outcome of environmental protection and economic benefits, and can be used to treat various organic solid wastes (for example, livestock and poultry manure, food waste, urban sludge, straw, organic debris). In another embodiment, the present invention relates to a biological organic fertilizer prepared by the above treatment method where humus is increased by up to 2 0 - 1 2 0 %, a final total organic matter content is 45-60%, a total nutrient content is 5. 1 -8.2%, a water content is -35%, a viable bacteria number is 4.2x108-6.5x10O CFU/g and a germination index is >80%. Subsequent screening, granulation, packaging and other processes of the biological organic fertilizer are all implemented by conventional equipment in the industry, and the fertilizer is applied in a conventional way. The biological organic fertilizer prepared by the present invention has various functions such as improving soil and promoting plant growth. Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: (1) Through the first fermentation at a high temperature, the functional fermentation bacteria population can be rapidly multiplied to such an extent that the concentration of the microorganism for degradation at a high temperature can be increased to more than 5 times of the initial concentration within 2 d. Fermentation of the material at a high temperature can reach the high temperature period in only 20-30 h, so that macromolecular organic matters can be quickly degraded (up to 30-50%) with a pathogen (Ascaris egg) killing rate >95% and fecal coliform <10 5/kg) and the like. The high temperature period (65-75°C) of the fermentation at a high temperature can act as a starting point for the fermentation at an ultra high temperature, reducing energy consumption for heating in the aerobic fermentation at an ultra-high temperature. Moreover, during the high temperature period, more small molecules are produced, which is beneficial to the humification of materials in the subsequent process at an ultra-high temperature. (2) In the second fermentation at an ultra-high temperature, while the state of the material is adjusted, extreme thermophilic bacteria are inoculated and quickly activated. The material obtained after fermentation at a high temperature contains more small molecular substances than before, which are used by the extreme thermophilic bacteria, reducing mortality of the extreme thermophilic bacteria. Therefore, the material can be rapidly decomposed, and the harmlessness (with an Ascaris egg killing rate of 100%, and fecal coliform <10 3/kg) and humification (total amount of humus is increased by 2 0 - 12 0 % of the original amount, and the humus mainly comes from humic acid) of the material can be strengthened. (3) Compared with the original single aerobic fermentation technology in which the organic matter decomposition stage and the high-temperature humification stage are present in one fermentation device, the method of the present invention is highly efficient throughout the process due to avoidance of the interaction of the two bacteria. Accordingly, the method of the present invention significantly increases the degradation rate of organic matters and strengthens the humification of the material. (4) The present invention is implemented by cooperative fermentation based on microbial relationships, for example, interspecific cooperation and commensalism, and has a wide range of applications, for example, it can be used to treat various common organic wastes. Moreover, the present invention can break the pile height limitation in a traditional aerobic fermentation. Furthermore, the present invention has a short production cycle, a high output and stable product quality, thus, production lines of different scales can be established according to needs which are less affected by region, season, and climate. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, throughout the description and the claims, the words "comprise", "comprising", and the like are to be construed in an inclusive sense as opposed to an exclusive or exhaustive sense; that is to say, in the sense of "including, but not limited to".
