(54) PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR THE TREATMENT OF
SEWAGE SLUDGE
(71) We, KUBOTA TEKKO KABUSHIKI
KAISHA (KUBOTA, LTD.), a Japanese Company, of No. 22, 2-chome, Funade-machi,
Naniwa-ku, Osaka-shi, Osaka-fu, Japan, do hereby declare the invention for which we pray that a patent may be granted to us, and the method by which it is to be performed to be particularly described in and by the following statement:- The present invention relates to an improved sludge treatment process, and particularly to a lower-temperature heattreatment process performed under pressure for treating sludge containing organic material and apparatus for carrying out said process.
A sludge treatment process is known which subjects sewage sludge containing organic material to heat treatment in a reactor at relatively low temperatures below 165 C by blowing steam and compressed air thereinto to keep the reactor in an oxidizing atmosphere. In such a process the volume of air blown into the reactor is more than the theoretical value required to reduce COD of sludge by 2-4% and is 10 to 30 times the volume of the sludge being treated, the volume of steam being controlled to keep the reaction temperature below 165 C; this is detected by a thermocouple provided in the reactor.
Developed in order to solve problems associated with the high-temperature or
Porteous process using higher temperatures of about 200"C, such as the syneresis of sludge, strong malodor of separated gas, clogging up by organic matter in the heat exchanger, this lower-temperature process performed under pressure can improve the filtrability or dewatering characteristics of sludge in spite of relatively low reaction temperatures, thereby increasing sludge treatment efficiency. High pressure and high temperature such as that used in the conventional process such as the Zimmerman process are not required.
There is known from the British Patent
No. 1475452, for example, a sludge treatment process in which the sludge to be treated is preheated in a heat exchanger before being heat-treated in the reactor with steam compressed air, the heat-treated sludge being used as a heat source for the heat exchanger.
However, these known processes have the following problems: 1) Air blown into the reactor rises in the
form of large air bubbles and not uni
formly but sometimes at only one side
thereof. Therefore, satsifactory contact
of sludge with air is not achieved, thus
impairing the efficiency of the heat treat
ment.
2) The gas separated in the reactor is dis
charged in the form of bubbles through
the exhaust pipe at the top thereof,
causing such problems as pipe chokage,
corrosion and wear.
3) The conventional process is not suited
for the treatment of separated liquor in
the low-temperature pressurized process.
4) Chemicals are used to deodorize the
malodorous gas produced in the sludge
treatment plant. This deddorizing pro
cess is uneconomical.
An object of this invention is to provide an improved all-round closed process for the lower-temperature treatment under pressure of organic sludge, said process including not only the heat treatment of sludge in the reactor but also the treatment of separate liquor and the deodorization of malodorous gas produced in the process so as not to discharge any harmful waste gas or liquor.
The present invention provides a process fdr treating sewage sludge which comprises the steps of preheating the sludge in a heat exchanger wherein previously heat-treated sludge is used directly or indirectly to heat the untreated sludge, feeding the preheated sludge into a reactor together with steam and compressed air to subject it to heat treatment and separate the gas therefrom, characterized in that the sludge is brought into uniform contact with air in said reactor, the discharge of air bubbles from said reactor being prevented and the liquor separated from the treated sludge being treated by at least one step of the activated sludge process.
The invention further provides apparatus for treating sewage sludge which comprises a heat exchanger for preheating the untreated sludge by using the heat of heattreated sludge directly or indirectly, a reactor for subjecting the preheated sludge to further heat treatment by bringing it into contact with steam and compressed air, said reactor having a plurality of perforated plates arranged horizontally in tiers spaced therebetween and a partitioning plate mounted above said perforated plates to divide said reactor into an oxidizing chamber and a heat condensing chamber, each of said perforated plates having a rib secured to the underside thereof to distribute air bubbles evenly for uniform contact of the sludge with air, said reactor further having means for preventing air bubbles from being discharged therefrom with the separated gas, and a system for treating the liquOr separated from said heat-treated sludge.
The invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a flow sheet of a sludge treatment plant embodying the present invention;
Fig. 2 is a vertical sectional view of one form of the reactor according to this invention;
Fig. 3 is a partially cutaway perspective view of the perforated plates with ribs provided in the reactor;
Figs. 4 and 5 are bottom views of other forms of ribs secured to said perforated plates;
Fig. 6 is a vertical sectional view of a portion of the reactor shown in Fig. 2;
Fig. 7 is a flow sheet Of one form of the separated liquor treatment system according to this invention; and
Fig. 8 is a schematic representation of one form of the deodorizing system according to this invention.
Referring to Fig. 1, the mixed raw sludge pumped from the preliminary and final settling ponds in a sewage treatment plant is first thickened in a raw sludge thickener 10 until the concentration of solid matter in the sludge increases to 3.5-4%. After being screened to remove foreign matter to prevent the chockage of pumps, pipes and heat exchanger, the thicknened sludge is stored in a thickened sludge tank 11 from which it is pumped to a heat exchanger 12. The latter is a double pipe, the untreated sludge being passed through its inner pipe and the heat-treated sludge from a reactor 16 being fed through its outer pipe in the opposite direction to preheat the untreated sludge up to about 1200C by indirect heat exchange. Some heating medium such as water may be used to recover the heat of the heat-treated sludge and preheat the untreated sludge.
The preheated sludge has sand removed therefrom by a sand remover 13 of a cyclone type to prevent the wear of component devices located downstream. The sand-free sludge is fOrced into the reactor 16 from the bottom thereof together with steam from a boiler 14 and compressed air from a compressor 15. By heat treatment for 30 minutes or longer at 1300-1650C under a pressure of about 10 kg/cmS so as to bring it into close contact with air, the filtrability of the sludge is improved. The gas separated from the sludge in the reactor 16 is burned in an incinerator 19.
The heat-treated sludge is discharged from the reactor 16 through its sludge discharge pipe and passed through the heat exchanger 12 for heat recovery as mentioned above so that it cools down to about 60"C. The sludge is then allowed to settle in a heat-treated sludge thickener 17 where it separates by natural settling into supernatant liquor and thickened sludge. The thickened sludge is pumped to a dewatering means such as a filter press 18 where it is filtered under pressure. The filter cake is burned to ashes in the incinerator 19 using a waste heat boiler. The heat value of the sludge cake is recovered in the form of steam in the waste heat boiler, said steam being used as the heat source for heat treatment in the reactor.
The separated liquor consisting of the -supernatant liquor from the thickener 17 and the filtrate from the filter press 18 is subjected to biological treatment in a separated liquor treatment system 20 which will be described later. The treated liquor is sent back to an ordinary water treatment plant.
The reactor 16, raw sludge thickener 10, thickened sludge tank 11, heat-treated sludge thickener 17, filter press 18 and aeration tanks in the separated liquor treatment sys tem 20 are major sources d malodorous gas in this sludge treatment plant. The gas from the reactor 16 is burned in the incinerator 19 and that from the heat-treated sludge thickener 17 is used for aeration in the separated liquor treatment system 20.
The gas from other sources, which is less malodorous, is led to a deodorizing system 21 which will be described later.
The exhaust gas from the incinerator 19 is treated in a desulfurizing tower 53 to remove the sulfurous acid (SO2) gas contained therein. The waste liquid from said tower is used in the deodorizing system 21.
Referring to Fig. 2, the sludge from the sand remover 13 is fed into the reactor 16 through a pipe 22. At the same time, steam and compressed air are blown into the reactor through pipes 23 and 24, respectively. The reactor 16 is provided at its upper portion with a partitioning plate 25 to divide the space therein into an oxidizing chamber 26 and a heat condensing chamber 27.
In the former chamber and below the partitioning plate are arranged a plurality of perforated plates 28 in tiers horizontally and suitably spaced apart. For regular spacings, said plates may be preferably mounted in the reactor 16 after welding them to a plurality of vertical coupling bars 29 disposed at the periphery thereof (Fig. 3).
A rib 30 is secured as by welding to the underside of each perforated plate 28. The rib may be in the form of a lattice as in
Fig. 3, concentric circles combined with a cross as in Fig. 4, or a honeycomb as in
Fig. 5. In any cases, a plurality of air reservoirs 31 are formed at the underside of each rib 30.
A demister 32 formed by a plurality of wire gauzes disposed one upon another is horizontally mounted on the partitioning plate 25 which is formed with a plurality of V-shaped notches 33 in its upper edge (Fig, 6). Above the demister 32 is horizontally mounted a steam heating coil 34 which is spiral-shaped in this embodiment, but may be zigzag- or lattice-shaped.
A separate gas outlet 39 is also covered with a tubular demister 36 similarly formed by wire gauzes with its lower end closed by end plate 35. The gas separated in the reactor 16 flows through the demister 32 into an exhaust pipe 37 provided with a pressure adjusting valve.
As the compressed air blown into the reactor 16 together with the sludge rises therein in the form of air bubbles while subjecting the sludge to partial oxidation, these air bubbles enter each air reservoir 31 formed under each rib 30 and pass through the perforatiOns in each perforated plate 28. Even if said plates are not mounted in a correct horizontal position, air bubbles would be well distributed into the air reservoirs 31 without gathering at only one side of the reactor 16. Thus, this arrangement ensures a uniform mixing of air with the sludge.
After passing through the perforated plates 28, the sludge overflows the partitioning plate 25 into the heat condensing chamber 27 where it is heat condensed in an oxygen-deficient standing condition.
Even though the demister 35 is mounted on the partitioning plate 25, it does not obstruct the flow of sludge because of the
V-shaped notches 33 formed in the top edge thereof. The sludge thus treated is discharged through an automatic discharge valve (not shown) from a pipe 38. This heat treatment in the reactor 16 subjects the sludge to partial oxidation and separates it into gas and solids, thereby improving its filtrability. The separated gas is taken out through the pipe 37 to the incinerator 19.
As the separated gas passes the demister 32, almost all of the bubbles are broken.
Even if any of them pass it, they will burst upon contact with the steam heating coil 34. Should any bubbles survive, they would break at the second demister 36.
This arrangement ensures that no bubbles are discharged through the exhaust pipe 37.
Next, the liquor treatment system 20 shown in Fig. 7 will be described in detail.
The supernatant liquor from the heattreated sludge thickener 17 and the filtrate from the dewatering system such as the filter press 18 are called the separated liquor.
Generally, the separated liquor produced in the lower-temperature process has a much lower BOD and COD and chromaticity when compared with that produced in the high-temperature process due to the fact that the reaction temperature is lower and the reactor is kept in an oxidizing atmosphere. The COD and BO;D of the former are 1/2-2/3 of those of the latter and the chromaticity is 1/6 - 1/5. Also, analysis by gel chromatography shows that the separated liquor in the lower-temperature process is hardly decomposed by heat treatment, retaining the characteristics akin to those of raw sludge. Therefore, it can be easily treated by the activated sludge process.
The liquor from the thickener 17 and the press filter 18 is first allowed to settle in a first adjusting tank 40 is then aerated with activated sludge in a first aeration tank 41.
Preferably, a BOD loading of about 1.2 - 2.0 kg/cm3/day and a mixed liquor suspended solid (MLSS) concentration of 4000-6000 ppm are used for the first aeration tank 41.
The treated liquor is then allowed to separate into solids and liquid in a first settling tank 42 from which part of the sludge is fed back to the first aeration tank 41. Tests show that BOD of the liquor from the first aeration tank 41 is 100 - 150 ppm on the average which means a removal rate of more than 95%. However, further decrease in BOD is not to be unexpected owing to the effect of COD and the lack of nourishment.
The liquor is then diluted about three fold with raw sewage in a second aeration tank 44. As the raw sewage the supernatant liquor from the raw sludge thickener 10 is used in this embodiment. It is fed in from a second adjusting tank 43. The liquor is then subjected to a standard activated sludge treatment once again.
The liquor from the second aeration tank 44 is allowed to settle in a second settling tank 45, the supernatant liquor from which is fed to a water disposal system (not shown). Part of the sludge in the second settling tank 45 is also fed back to the second aeration tank 44. As the aeration air for the first and second aeration tanks, the malodorous gas from the heat-treated sludge thickener 17 is also used to deodorize it (Fig. 1).
Where a higher grade of treatment is required, further treatment stages such as coagulation or filtration through sand or activated charcoal may be naturally provided after the second settling tank 45.
This process provides almost complete biological treatment of the separated liquor by two-step aeration with activated sludge.
It also provides a simplified and totally closed treatment system with high efficiency by using the liquor from the raw sludge thickener 10 as the nourishment source.
Finally, the deodorizing system 21 shown in Fig. 8 will be described.
Generally, in the lower-temperature sludge treatment process, the exhaust gas contains little malodour coming from sulfides such as hydrogen sulfide (H.s) and methyl sulfide because the sludge is partially oxidized in the reactor. Also, the odour of the heattreated sludge is much less offensive than that in the high-temperature process because almost all malodorous components are removed from the reactor in the form of the separated gas, which is directly burned in the incinerator 19 because of its highly effensive odour.
Relatively less malodorous gas from the raw sludge thickener 10, thickened sludge tank 11, press filter 18 and aeration tanks 41 and 44 is introduced into a deodorizing tower 46 through a pipe 47. The tower is also supplied with ozone (03) from an ozone generator (not shown) through a pipe 48 to oxidize the malodorous components in said gas.
The deodorized gas containing residual ozone is taken from the top of the tower 46 and led to the bottom of an ozone removing tower 49 where the residual ozone therein serves to treat the waste liquid containing Na.;SO3 fed from the desulfurizing tower 53 through a collecting tank 54. The treated gas and the waste liquid containing Na > SO; are discharged therefrom through ducts 50 and 52, respectively.
The desulfurizing tower 53 serves to remove the sulfurous acid in the exhaust gas from the incinerator 19 with caustic soda (NaOH) solution pump up from a tank 55 and supplied from the top thereof. The exhaust gas from the incinerator is introduced into the tower 53 through a duct 56 and is contacted with the caustic soda for desulfurizatin. The desulfurized gas is discharged from the top thereof and the waste liquid containing NaSSO3 flows down into the tank 54.
All of the above-mentioned three towers 46, 49 and 53 are filled with some anticorrosive synthetic material in their middle portion to prevent the gas from passing through them too quickly for effective treatment.
This deodorizing process is much more economical than the conventional one and is particularly suited for sludge treatment plants with an incinerator.
The advantages of the lower-temperature process performed under pressure according to this invention will be summarized below.
1) It provides a totally closed system which
combines the treatment of exhaust gas,
liquor and solids into one. There is
no possibility of causing any secondary
pollution problems.
2) Close, uniform contact of sludge with
air is assured by the provision of per
forated plates with ribs. This makes
possible the heat treatment of sludge at
relatively low temperatures. The size
of the reactor can be reduced because
of higher reaction efficiency.
3) Complete separation of gas from liquid
in the reactor prolongs the working life
of the pressure adjusting valve provided
in the gas exhaust pipe of the reactor.
Also, the temperature in the incinerator
does not have to be so high.
4) Low BOD of the separated liquor makes
it possible to treat it by the ordinary
biological treatment process.
5) No oxidizing system is needed for the
waste liquid from the desulfurizing tower
since it is treated with the residual ozone
in the exhaust gas from the deodorizing
tower.
