Description

System for monitoring heavy metal and microbial electrochemical sensor
Technical Field
The invention relates to a system for monitoring heavy metal and a microbial electrochemical sensor, belonging to the technical field of monitoring heavy metal pollution of a water environment.
Background
In recent years, with the development of heavy industry, heavy metal pollution has become one of the most harmful water pollution problems. The monitoring of the heavy metal pollution is an important means for knowing the current situation of water body pollution, and has very important significance for guaranteeing the safety of human life and property and carrying out subsequent water treatment work in a targeted manner. The traditional water quality poison monitoring work is mostly developed by means of an offline physicochemical analysis technology, although the total concentration of heavy metals in a water body can be accurately tested, the method needs complex instruments and equipment for support, the sample pretreatment process is complicated, the professional requirement on operators is high, more importantly, the detection result is obviously delayed, and the real influence of poisons on human health and water environment safety cannot be timely reflected. Therefore, it is very important to develop a sensing system which can meet the online early warning requirement of water quality and can respond in real time after being impacted.
The electrochemical sensor plays an increasingly important role in monitoring water environment safety with the advantages of high reaction speed, high sensitivity, low cost, suitability for on-line monitoring and the like. Electrochemical sensors are generally composed of multiple electrodes, and currently, the most common electrochemical measurement is a three-electrode system composed of a working electrode, a reference electrode and a counter electrode. The three-electrode system has the advantages of high voltage scanning speed, small monitoring error, stable work, capability of compensating ohmic voltage drop in solution and the like.
Electrochemical sensors have the disadvantages: an external power supply is needed for monitoring, and a complete loop is formed; the requirement on the electrode is high, the electrode needs to be chemically modified for increasing the sensitivity, and the operation is complex.
The bioelectricity sensor utilizes the combination of specific biological recognition substances and heavy metals, and converts the change into a monitorable electric signal through a signal converter so as to analyze and judge the heavy metal elements and the content thereof. Common biosensors comprise enzyme biosensors, cell sensors, DNA sensors and other online monitoring methods, and can respond quickly. The bioelectricity sensor relates to the extraction operation of biological active substances such as biological tissues, microorganisms, organelles, enzymes, antibodies, antigens, nucleic acids, DNA and the like, which is generally complex and expensive, and the biological active units have the defects of instability, easy denaturation and the like, so that the stability and the reproducibility of the biosensor are poor. However, a great deal of research work is limited to the initial attempts of methodology, and the gap from the realization of the commercialization requirement of the biosensor is large.

The following examples are provided for a better understanding of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the invention. The experimental procedures in the following examples are conventional unless otherwise specified. The experimental materials used in the following examples were all purchased from a conventional biochemical reagent store unless otherwise specified.
Example 1: system for monitoring heavy metal and microbial electrochemical sensor
The microbial electrochemical sensor of the present embodiment is essentially a two-chamber Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) having carbon rods as an anode and a cathode, and the anode chamber and the cathode chamber are filled with carbon felts to form a microbial membrane. The cathode chamber and the anode chamber are separated by a cation exchange membrane or a proton exchange membrane. The sensor is essentially a double-chamber Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC), can automatically output an electric signal without an external power supply, and can be directly monitored by an electrochemical workstation.
A microbial electrochemical sensor (MFCs sensor) is a device developed based on the characteristics of MFCs electricity generation and applicable to the field of sensing and monitoring of heavy metals in water environment, and generally comprises an anode chamber, a cathode chamber, a proton exchange membrane and an external circuit, as shown in fig. 1.
The working principle of the microbial electrochemical sensor (MFCs sensor) is that anode anaerobic electrogenesis bacteria are used as a catalyst and are attached to the surface of an anode to form a biomembrane, organic matters are degraded on the surface of the anode after entering an anode chamber to form an intermediate product, protons and electrons, the protons reach a cathode chamber after passing through a proton or ion exchange membrane, the electrons are transferred to the anode and then reach a cathode through an external circuit to generate current, and the electrons, the protons and an electron acceptor (such as oxygen) are subjected to reduction reaction (combined to generate water) on the surface of the cathode. When the MFCs are used as the biosensor to monitor the heavy metals, the heavy metal substances enter the anode chamber and can inhibit anaerobic electrogenesis bacteria at the anode of the MFCs, so that the metabolism rate is reduced, the activity of the anaerobic electrogenesis bacteria is inhibited, the electrogenesis capability is finally reduced, the toxicity of the heavy metals can be reflected by monitoring the change of an electric signal (usually selecting current or voltage), and the online monitoring and early warning effect on the heavy metal pollution of a water body is realized.
Construction of microbial electrochemical sensors (MFCs reactors):
as shown in FIG. 1, electrochemical treatment of microorganismsThe chemical sensor (MFCs reactor) consists of an anode chamber 12, a cathode chamber 13 and a membrane 11 between the anode chamber 12 and the cathode chamber 13. The anode chamber 12 and the cathode chamber 13 are filled with carbon felt particles 14, which play a role in conducting electricity and attaching electrochemically active bacteria of microorganisms. The volumes of the anode chamber 12 and the cathode chamber 13 are 64cm3. The anode chamber 12 and the cathode chamber 13 are separated by a diaphragm, 35 carbon felts with the grain size of 0.5cm multiplied by 1cm are respectively arranged in the two chambers,
the anode chamber is provided with an anode water inlet 122 and an anode water outlet 123 for anode liquid or simulated heavy metal waste liquid to enter and exit; an anode electrode 121 is provided. The cathode chamber is provided with a cathode water inlet 132 and a cathode water outlet 133 for cathode liquid to enter and exit; a cathode electrode 131 is provided.
Four corners of the anode chamber baffle, the rubber pad, the anode chamber, the diaphragm 11, the cathode chamber and the cathode chamber baffle are all provided with screw holes, and all parts are fixed by long screws in sequence. An anode electrode insertion opening and a cathode electrode insertion opening are provided, and a cylindrical anode electrode 121 and a cylindrical cathode electrode 131 are vertically inserted into the bottom portions of the anode chamber 12 and the cathode chamber 13 through the anode electrode insertion opening and the cathode electrode insertion opening, respectively, as an anode electrode and a cathode electrode.
The system for monitoring the heavy metals comprises a microbial electrochemical sensor 1(MFCs reactor), a first storage tank 3 containing anode matrix liquid, a second storage tank 4 containing cathode matrix liquid, a peristaltic pump 2, an electrochemical workstation 6, a computer 7, a variable resistance box 5, an external circuit, an ammeter 8 and an external circuit. In order to increase the accuracy, a plurality of groups of microbial electrochemical sensors 1(MFCs reactors) are set to run in parallel, the plurality of groups of microbial electrochemical sensors (MFCs reactors) share the same second storage tank 4, and errors caused by catholyte are reduced. The anode substrate liquid is respectively arranged in different first storage tanks 3, so that respective data monitoring is facilitated. The first storage tank 3 is arranged in a constant-temperature water bath for heating, and the activity of the microbial electrochemical active bacteria is increased. The water inlet pipes of the anode chamber and the cathode chamber feed water into the MFCs reactor through the peristaltic pump 2, the discharged water flows back to the first storage tank 3, and the counter-flow water feeding ensures that the liquid is fully contacted with the attached electrochemical active bacteria in the anode chamber 12. The external varistor box 5 is connected to the anode electrode 121 and the cathode electrode 131 of the reactor, and receives an electric signal through the electrochemical workstation 6. A system for heavy metal monitoring is shown in figure 2.
The microbial electrochemical active bacteria inoculated on the anode indoor electrode and the carbon felt are taken from the active sludge of the SBR process sludge collecting tank of the sewage treatment plant, and the acclimation process of the anaerobic electrogenesis bacteria is as follows: putting 400mL of sludge into a 1L liquid storage tank, adding 600mL of anolyte into 12.5mL of trace elements, mixing, introducing nitrogen for 15min, adding into the liquid storage tank, mounting an aluminum foil gas sampling bag on the liquid storage tank, and placing in a digital display constant temperature water bath kettle at 37.5 ℃ for water bath heating for anaerobic acclimation. When the anaerobic bacteria is operated at constant temperature until gas exists in the sampling bag, the anaerobic fermentation of the anaerobic bacteria is explained to generate methane, the sludge on the appearance is changed into black bottom sludge from red brown turbid liquid and is deposited at the bottom of the liquid storage tank, and the supernatant is arranged at the upper part, namely the acclimation of the anaerobic electrogenic bacteria is completed, and the anaerobic electrogenic bacteria is placed in a constant temperature box for culture and standby.
After the MFCs sensor is built, a layer of biomembrane needs to be attached to the graphite electrode and the carbon felt in the double-chamber MFCs anode chamber, and the microbial electrochemical active bacteria on the biomembrane convert chemical energy into electric signals and transmit the electric signals to a computer, so that the anode liquid storage tank of the constructed microbial electrochemical sensor is replaced by domesticated activated sludge. The MFCs are acclimated for a long time because microorganisms are slowly attached, cathode electrodes are not modified by catalysts, and electrons need to repeatedly accumulate on the surfaces of the electrodes. Inoculating the anode of the reactor, flowing supernatant in an activated sludge bottle into the reactor through a pump, and finishing the attachment of anaerobic electrogenesis bacteria after the output voltage collected by an electrochemical workstation is stabilized to about 0.45V for 3 consecutive days, namely replacing the acclimated sludge with an anode substrate solution.
Anode matrix liquid: in the process of starting and operating the microbial electrochemical sensor reactor, the anode substrate solution needs to be replaced once a day, 1000mL of trace element solution is prepared and added every time, nitrogen is introduced for 15-20min to meet the requirement of anaerobic environment required by anaerobic electrogenesis bacteria, 1/3 bottles of anode substrate solution need to be uniformly and slowly moved and replaced by a rubber tube every day for a 1L liquid storage tank, and a large amount of oxygen is prevented from being dissolved in the anode solution. The anode matrix liquid is not easy to store, and needs to be prepared at present for preventing organic matter loss. The anolyte formulation is shown in the table below.

Washing liquid: the MFC anode chamber needs to be washed after the heavy metal monitoring is completed every time, the purpose is to prevent the influence of residual heavy metal on the next monitoring, and the MFC anode chamber is not suitable for being washed by deionized water in order to meet the nutritional requirements of anaerobic electrogenic bacteria in the anode chamber and reduce the death of microorganism infiltration. The washing liquid adopted in the experiment only contains sodium acetate and ammonium chloride, and the washing liquid is not easy to store and needs to be prepared at present.
