Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of electrochemical reduction of nitrate nitrogen, in particular to a device and a method for electrochemical reduction of high nitrate nitrogen wastewater.
Background
When the nitrogen content of the water body exceeds the environmental threshold (TN is more than 0.2mg/L), a great amount of blue algae explodes, and the water body eutrophication is caused. High nitrate nitrogen drinking water threatens human health and induces various diseases such as blue-infant syndrome, infant hemorrhagic erythropoiesis, adult gastric cancer, methemoglobinemia and the like. Excessive nitrate nitrogen in water body can also induce toxic symptoms such as tachypnea, apoplexy and the like of livestock.
The biological nitrification/denitrification process is most widely used as a traditional denitrification technology, wherein the nitrification reaction is energy-intensive, and the subsequent denitrification usually requires an external organic carbon source to completely reduce nitrate nitrogen. The removal of nitrate nitrogen requires a proper carbon-nitrogen ratio (C/N) of 2.7-3. For wastewater with low C/N ratio, the need for additional organic carbon addition results in a dramatic increase in cost.
The anaerobic ammonia oxidation denitrification technology is a novel energy-saving and consumption-reducing sewage biological treatment technology, and realizes autotrophic denitrification by oxidizing ammonia nitrogen through nitrite nitrogen. The denitrification technology based on anaerobic ammonia oxidation is concerned by the advantages of no need of extra carbon source, low sludge yield, low energy consumption, low cost, high denitrification rate, no greenhouse gas emission and the like.
The electrochemical nitrogen reduction method is a nitrate nitrogen reduction method with high catalytic efficiency, strong flexibility and high selectivity, and selectively reduces nitrate nitrogen into ammonia nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, nitrogen and the like by utilizing electrons (serving as green reducing agents) provided by a power supply. Therefore, it is an urgent technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art to provide an electrochemical reduction apparatus and method for high nitrate nitrogen wastewater.

Under the conditions of the external voltage of the direct current power supply of 25V and the rotation speed of 400rpm, the current is 0.281A and the current density is 11.71mA/cm2(ii) a The ammonia nitrogen slowly accumulates after the reaction is still 1h, and the concentration of the nitrite nitrogen is 105 mg/L; after 2h, the content of nitrite nitrogen begins to decrease, the concentration of nitrite nitrogen is 150mg/L, and the ammonia nitrogen reaches 60 mg/L; and when the ammonia nitrogen concentration exceeds the nitrite nitrogen concentration by 150mg/L, the nitrite nitrogen concentration is 100mg/L, and the residual nitrate nitrogen is about 50mg/L in 3.5 h.
The experimental result shows that the reaction time required in experimental example 3 is between 3 and 3.5 hours, but compared with experimental example 2, the residual concentration of nitrate nitrogen in the reaction system of the cathode material using the stainless steel mesh as the substrate is slightly higher than that of the reaction system of the cathode material using the brass mesh as the substrate; the stainless steel mesh has good selectivity to ammonia nitrogen due to the fact that the material of the stainless steel mesh mainly contains substances such as iron, nickel and the like, and the phenomenon is expressed in that the ammonia nitrogen accumulation rate is high; the stability of the two substrate materials is relatively consistent, and the uniformity and deposition amount of Cu on electrodeposition under the same condition are relatively consistent; the electrical conductivity of the two materials is relatively consistent, and the current density can reach 11mA/cm under the voltage of-25V2The above.
In conclusion, the reaction voltage and the reaction time can be adjusted according to the proportion of the required products, the nitrate nitrogen is promoted to be converted into ammonia nitrogen and nitrite, the concentration ratio is close to 1, and the reaction conditions in the embodiment 2 meet the requirements.
