Abstract
Description
本発明は、家庭・レストラン・工場・下水処理場等から排出される有機性廃棄物や廃水を、直接、嫌気性消化槽を用い嫌気的に発酵させることにより、廃棄物中の有機物を迅速に分解・消化処理する方法に関する。 The present invention enables organic waste and waste water discharged from households, restaurants, factories, sewage treatment plants, etc. to be anaerobically fermented directly using an anaerobic digestion tank, thereby quickly accelerating the organic matter in the waste. It relates to a method of decomposing and digesting.
生ごみ等有機性廃棄物の処理方法として、嫌気性消化が注目されるようになっている。しかし、従来の嫌気性消化法では、有機物分解速度、消化ガス生成速度は十分に高くないという問題点があり、そのため、ある程度大きな消化槽を用意する必要があった。分解速度が速くなれば、消化槽がよりコンパクトにでき、経済性・エネルギー収支等の改善が実現できる。 Anaerobic digestion is gaining attention as a method for treating organic waste such as garbage. However, the conventional anaerobic digestion method has a problem that the organic matter decomposition rate and the digestion gas generation rate are not sufficiently high, and therefore it is necessary to prepare a digester large to some extent. If the decomposition rate is increased, the digester can be made more compact, and the economic efficiency and energy balance can be improved.
これらの問題点を解消するために、活性汚泥方式で発生する汚泥の余剰部分を、高温嫌気性消化処理し、該処理液を固液分離膜に通して循環させ、該分離膜を通して水分を抜き取ることを特徴とする有機性汚泥の処理方法が提案されているが(特許文献1)、この方法は、従来の高温型嫌気性消化法であり、十分に消化効率が上がらないという問題があった。 In order to solve these problems, an excess portion of sludge generated by the activated sludge method is subjected to high-temperature anaerobic digestion, and the treatment liquid is circulated through a solid-liquid separation membrane, and water is extracted through the separation membrane. An organic sludge treatment method characterized by this is proposed (Patent Document 1), but this method is a conventional high-temperature anaerobic digestion method, and there is a problem that digestion efficiency does not sufficiently increase. .
また、消化汚泥を主体とする混合液を嫌気性消化リアクタから引き抜き循環・返送する過程で熱処理する方法が提案されているが(特許文献2)、この方法は、消化汚泥を高温で処理して物理化学的に消化汚泥の構造を破壊しようとしたものであり、嫌気性消化槽そのものの性能を向上させる方法ではなく、消化効率が十分に上がらないという問題が残る。 In addition, a method of heat-treating a mixed liquid mainly composed of digested sludge from the anaerobic digestion reactor in the process of drawing and circulating / returning it has been proposed (Patent Document 2). In this method, digested sludge is treated at a high temperature. It is intended to destroy the structure of digested sludge physicochemically, and is not a method for improving the performance of the anaerobic digester itself, but the problem that digestion efficiency does not sufficiently increase remains.
嫌気性消化槽内に微生物の住処となる担体を具備することにより、分解に関わる微生物を高濃度に槽内に維持し、分解・ガス化効率を図る固定化法が検討されている。
UASB法といわれる微生物が自己凝集したグラニュールを用い、消化槽内の微生物濃度を高める方法が検討・実用化されているが(特許文献3)、この方法は固形分をあまり分解できないので、もっぱら懸濁固形分の少ない有機性廃水の処理に利用されており、固形分を含有する有機性廃棄物や廃水の嫌気性処理には不向きである。
An immobilization method has been studied in which an anaerobic digestion tank is provided with a carrier serving as a place where microorganisms reside, so that microorganisms involved in decomposition can be maintained in the tank at a high concentration and decomposition and gasification efficiency can be improved.
A method called UASB method that uses self-aggregated granules of microorganisms to increase the concentration of microorganisms in the digestion tank has been studied and put into practical use (Patent Document 3). It is used for the treatment of organic wastewater with a small amount of suspended solids, and is not suitable for anaerobic treatment of organic waste and wastewater containing solids.
多孔質セラミック顆粒担体を用いた固定化嫌気性消化法が報告されているが(特許文献4)、本法はセラミック顆粒に貫通孔を設け数珠状に固定化して使用するため、装置が複雑で施工が難しく、槽内の担体容積が少ないため分解効率がさほど上昇しないという問題は残る。 An immobilized anaerobic digestion method using a porous ceramic granule carrier has been reported (Patent Document 4). However, since this method uses a ceramic granule with a through hole and is fixed in a rosary shape, the apparatus is complicated. The problem remains that the construction is difficult and the decomposition efficiency does not increase so much because the volume of the carrier in the tank is small.
また、流動性の0.5〜6 mmの粒状有機ゲル微粒子を微生物固定化担体として用いる方法が報告されているが(特許文献5)、流動性の微粒子を製造することや消化槽内に維持することが難しく、経済性や操作性に問題がある。 In addition, although a method using fluid 0.5 to 6 mm granular organic gel fine particles as a microorganism-immobilized carrier has been reported (Patent Document 5), producing fluid fine particles or maintaining them in a digestion tank. However, there are problems with economy and operability.
また、不織布に酸化剤で親水化処理し、微生物担体として利用する方法が報告されているが(特許文献6)、不織布では繊維を利用するため密度や空隙率を最適化することが困難で、微生物の担体としては不向きであるという問題がある。 Moreover, although the method of hydrophilizing a nonwoven fabric with an oxidizing agent and utilizing it as a microbial carrier has been reported (Patent Document 6), it is difficult to optimize the density and porosity because the nonwoven fabric uses fibers, There is a problem that it is not suitable as a carrier for microorganisms.
これらの欠点を解消するために、本発明者等は、先に、有機性廃水及び/又は有機性廃棄物を嫌気性消化処理し、得られる消化液を固液分離膜により分離する嫌気性消化処理方法であって、嫌気性消化処理を嫌気性消化微生物固定化担体の存在下で行う、有機性廃水及び/又は有機性廃棄物の嫌気性消化処理方法が提案した(特許文献7)。 In order to eliminate these drawbacks, the present inventors first performed anaerobic digestion treatment of organic wastewater and / or organic waste, and the resulting digested liquid is separated by a solid-liquid separation membrane. An anaerobic digestion treatment method for organic wastewater and / or organic waste, in which anaerobic digestion treatment is performed in the presence of an anaerobic digestive microorganism-immobilized carrier, has been proposed (Patent Document 7).
本発明は、前記特許文献7の方法を更に発展させたものであり、その目的は、有機性廃棄物からなる被処理物を消化微生物固定化担体の存在下で、固液分離膜を用いることなく直接、嫌気性処理する方法において、消化槽内に効率よく嫌気性微生物を維持し、有機性廃棄物を嫌気性消化により効率よく分解・ガス化し、メタンの生成効率を高めて消化速度を向上させる方法を提供することにある。 The present invention is a further development of the method of Patent Document 7, and its object is to use a solid-liquid separation membrane for an object to be treated consisting of organic waste in the presence of a digestive microorganism-immobilized carrier. Without anaerobic treatment, the anaerobic microorganisms are efficiently maintained in the digestion tank, the organic waste is efficiently decomposed and gasified by anaerobic digestion, and the digestion rate is improved by increasing the production efficiency of methane. It is to provide a method of making it happen.

As a result of intensive studies to solve the above problems, the present inventor has completed the present invention.
That is, according to the present invention, the following inventions are provided.
(1) An organic property characterized in that an immobilized carrier made of foamed polyurethane is used as a carrier in a method for directly anaerobically treating an object to be treated made of organic waste in the presence of a carrier for immobilizing digestive microorganisms.

本発明は前記のような構成であり、有機性廃棄物及び又は廃水は発泡ポリウレタン担体に固定化された嫌気性微生物の分解消化処理を受ける。分解消化に関わる微生物が効率よくポリウレタンに固定化されているので、槽内の微生物濃度が高く、分解消化が効率よく進む。結果として、有機物の分解速度が速く、メタンガスがより迅速に発生する。 The present invention is configured as described above, and the organic waste and / or waste water is subjected to a decomposition digestion treatment of anaerobic microorganisms immobilized on the foamed polyurethane carrier. Since microorganisms involved in decomposing digestion are efficiently immobilized on polyurethane, the concentration of microorganisms in the tank is high, and decomposing digestion proceeds efficiently. As a result, the decomposition rate of organic matter is high and methane gas is generated more rapidly.
本発明の最大の特徴は、従来の固液分離膜を用いることなく、通常の繊維状の消化性固定化担体の存在下で直接嫌気性消化処理方法の有する、特に消化槽運転開始時における嫌気性微生物の固定化速度が遅いため、慣らし運転に時間が掛かるといった問題点を克服するために、嫌気性消化槽内に収容する該担体として発泡ポリウレタン製の担体を選定した点にある。
このように固定化担体として、発泡ポリウレタン製のものを用いると、ポリウレタンの細孔数や密度が最適化されているため、分解消化・ガス化に関わる微生物が効率よくポリウレタンの細孔に入り高密度で固定化されるため、消化が効率よくすすむ。
The greatest feature of the present invention is that it has an anaerobic digestion method directly in the presence of a normal fibrous digestible immobilization carrier without using a conventional solid-liquid separation membrane, and particularly anaerobic at the start of digester operation. In order to overcome the problem that it takes a long time for the break-in operation due to the slow immobilization rate of the sex microorganisms, a support made of polyurethane foam is selected as the support accommodated in the anaerobic digester.
In this way, when the foamed polyurethane carrier is used as the immobilization carrier, the number and density of the pores of the polyurethane are optimized, so that microorganisms involved in decomposition digestion and gasification efficiently enter the pores of the polyurethane. Because it is fixed at a high density, digestion is efficient.
本発明でいう、嫌気性消化には、酸素のない嫌気的な条件で嫌気性微生物の働きにより、有機物からメタンと二酸化炭素を生成させる方法と、嫌気性消化処理とは、20〜70℃、好ましくは30〜60℃で行う嫌気性消化処理の両消化法が包含される。この嫌気性消化処理は、35〜37℃で行われる中温消化法でも、55℃で行われる高温消化法であってもよい。

And an anaerobic digestion treatment at 20 ° C. or higher, desirably 30 to 60 ° C., more preferably 35 or 55 ° C.
この場合、本発明においては、この消化槽内に、発泡ポリウレタン固定化担体を具備させる。
本発明で言うポリウレタンとは、ウレタン結合を有するポリマーの総称で、ウレタン結合はイソシアネート基と、水酸基などの活性水素を有する化合物との付加反応により生成されたものを言い、本発明では、その発泡体を固定化担体として用いる。発泡ポリウレタンで、密度や細孔数を任意に調整することができる。
固定化担体の収容方法としては、固定床でも流動床でも、それらを組み合わせた方法でもよいが、固定化担体が嫌気性消化槽内で固定されて動かず、消化物が動く状態で消化が進む固定床が好ましく使用される。
In this case, in the present invention, a foamed polyurethane fixed carrier is provided in the digestion tank.
The polyurethane referred to in the present invention is a general term for a polymer having a urethane bond, and the urethane bond refers to a product formed by an addition reaction between an isocyanate group and a compound having an active hydrogen such as a hydroxyl group. The body is used as an immobilization carrier. With foamed polyurethane, the density and the number of pores can be arbitrarily adjusted.
As a method for containing the immobilization carrier, either a fixed bed, a fluidized bed, or a combination thereof may be used. However, the immobilization carrier is fixed in the anaerobic digestion tank and does not move, and digestion proceeds with the digest moving. A fixed bed is preferably used.
担体である発泡ポリウレタンの形状は、制約されず、補助資材等を用いて円筒状、平板状、球状、円盤状の形状にも成型することができる。発泡ポリウレタンの厚さは、5〜200 mm望ましくは10〜50 mm、ポリウレタンの密度は、5〜100 kg/m3望ましくは20〜40kg/m3、ポリウレタンは、その細孔が相互につながっているオープンセル構造であることが望ましい。また、その細孔数は、10個/25mm以上望ましくは20〜50個/25mmである。 The shape of the foamed polyurethane as the carrier is not limited, and can be molded into a cylindrical shape, a flat plate shape, a spherical shape, or a disk shape using an auxiliary material.

Can be used.
前記のようにして、有機性廃棄物を酸発酵性微生物やメタン発酵性微生物を固定化した発泡ポリウレタン担体を用いて嫌気的に消化処理すると、有機物が分解されてガス化し、嫌気性消化残滓が得られる。その時発生する嫌気性消化残滓は、窒素やリンなどの肥料成分を多く含み、発酵が進んでいるので有機性肥料として利用することが可能である。
また、好気的なコンポスト法によって生産された有機性肥料中の塩分が問題となる場合があるが、本法では発酵残滓は固液分離後固相部が有機性肥料となり、塩分は液相部中に多く含まれるため、本法により得られる有機性肥料はコンポスト法による有機性肥料に比べ塩分濃度が低いという利点を有する。
As described above, when organic waste is digested anaerobically using a foamed polyurethane carrier to which acid-fermenting microorganisms and methane-fermenting microorganisms are immobilized, the organic matter is decomposed and gasified, and anaerobic digestion residue is produced. can get. The anaerobic digestion residue generated at that time contains a large amount of fertilizer components such as nitrogen and phosphorus, and can be used as an organic fertilizer because fermentation is progressing.
In addition, the salt content in organic fertilizer produced by the aerobic compost method may be a problem. In this method, the fermentation residue is solid-liquid separated and the solid phase becomes organic fertilizer. Since it is contained in many parts, the organic fertilizer obtained by this method has the advantage that the salt concentration is lower than the organic fertilizer by the compost method.
また、消化時に発生するメタンは、ボイラー燃料、消化ガス発電、マイクロガスタービンや水素への改質後燃料電池の燃料として利用することが出来る。 Also, methane generated during digestion can be used as fuel for boiler fuel, digestion gas power generation, micro gas turbines and fuel cells after reforming to hydrogen.
次に、本発明について図面を参照しながら詳述する。

図1に従って本発明を実施するには、有機性廃棄物貯留タンク1より有機性廃棄物配管2を通って、メタン発酵を生じさせる微生物を含有する嫌気性汚泥を投入して発泡ポリウレタン担体に固定化した嫌気性消化槽3に、有機性廃棄物を供給する。
メタン発酵を生じさせる微生物を含有する嫌気性汚泥としては、前記したように、下水処理場の下水汚泥の嫌気性消化汚泥等を使用すればよい。この場合、この嫌気性消化槽3は、その内部に円筒状または平板状の発泡ポリウレタン担体4を具備し、嫌気性微生物を固定化する。通常、微生物の固定化には、消化槽の立ち上げ時に槽内に嫌気性消化汚泥を投入後、原料を加えないで2〜3週間運転し、その後徐々に原料を加えていく方法を用いる。
In order to implement the present invention according to FIG. 1, anaerobic sludge containing microorganisms causing methane fermentation is introduced from an organic
As described above, as the anaerobic sludge containing microorganisms that cause methane fermentation, anaerobic digested sludge or the like of sewage sludge in a sewage treatment plant may be used. In this case, the anaerobic digester 3 has a cylindrical or flat foamed
この嫌気性消化槽3において、廃棄物は固定化微生物の分解作用を受けながら消化処理を受ける。この消化処理により、廃棄物中の有機物は従来の嫌気性消化に比べ、より迅速に安定的に分解消化されメタンを発生する。本発明の場合、密度や細孔数を最適化した発泡ポリウレタン担体に効率よくメタン発酵性微生物が固定化され、槽内の分解微生物濃度が高くなっているので、従来の消化法に比べ有機物分解速度及び消化ガス化速度の向上が達成される。特に、消化槽運転開始時における嫌気性微生物の固定化速度が速く、慣らし運転を短縮できる。 In the anaerobic digestion tank 3, the waste is subjected to digestion while receiving the action of decomposing the immobilized microorganisms. By this digestion treatment, organic matter in the waste is decomposed and digested more rapidly and stably than methane in comparison with conventional anaerobic digestion. In the case of the present invention, the methane-fermenting microorganisms are efficiently immobilized on the foamed polyurethane carrier with optimized density and number of pores, and the concentration of decomposing microorganisms in the tank is high. An increase in speed and digestion gasification rate is achieved. In particular, the rate of immobilization of anaerobic microorganisms at the start of digester operation is fast, and the break-in operation can be shortened.
本発明に係る嫌気性消化槽は、槽内の汚泥を撹拌し発酵反応を促進させるために、撹拌装置を具備させることが望ましい。また、槽内の汚泥を抜き再度投入することにより撹拌を実現してもよい。 The anaerobic digestion tank according to the present invention is desirably provided with a stirring device in order to stir sludge in the tank and promote the fermentation reaction. Moreover, you may implement | achieve stirring by removing the sludge in a tank and throwing in again.

To a 300 ml reactor, 150 ml of a mixture of digested sludge and acetic acid medium was added. Polyurethane foam (number of pores 20/25 mm) is fixed in a 20% (v / v, 30 ml) digestive fluid reactor to form a fixed bed. After sealing, the gas inside is replaced with nitrogen and the reactor is filled with nitrogen. Made anaerobic. The amount of gas produced from the plastic bottle was measured with a syringe, and the methane concentration was measured with gas chromatography. The cells were cultured for 42 days in a semi-continuous system in which an acetic acid medium was supplied once a week to a 35 ° C. vibration incubator (120 rpm). The dissolved total organic carbon concentration of the influent and effluent was measured, and the methane yield per added dissolved organic matter was examined.

[実施例1と参考例1の実験結果およびその考察]
細孔数13個/25 mmの発泡ポリウレタンを固定床とした比較例1では、培養42日後の累積メタンガス生成量は413mlであったのに対し、細孔数20個/25 mmで固定床法の実施例1の累積メタンガス生成量は、1073 mlであった。また、参考例1では208ml/g-添加溶存総有機炭素のメタン収率あったのに対し、実施例1では590 ml/g-添加溶存総有機炭素のメタン収率であった。細孔数20 個/25mmの発泡ポリウレタンを固定床としたリアクタではより多くのメタン菌が固定化され、細孔数13 個/25mmの発泡ポリウレタンリアクタより消化ガス生成量が向上したと考えられる。
[Experimental Results and Discussion of Example 1 and Reference Example 1]
In Comparative Example 1 in which polyurethane foam with 13 pores / 25 mm was used as a fixed bed, the cumulative amount of methane gas produced after 42 days of culture was 413 ml, whereas the fixed bed method with 20 pores / 25 mm was used. The amount of accumulated methane gas produced in Example 1 was 1073 ml. Further, in Reference Example 1, there was a methane yield of 208 ml / g-added dissolved total organic carbon, while in Example 1, the methane yield of 590 ml / g-added dissolved total organic carbon. It is considered that more methane bacteria were immobilized in the reactor using fixed polyurethane foam with a pore number of 20/25 mm, and digestion gas production was improved compared to a foamed polyurethane reactor with a pore number of 13/25 mm.
[実施例1と参考例2の実験結果およびその考察]
細孔数20個/25mmの、発泡ポリウレタンを流動床とした参考例2では、培養42日後の累積メタンガス生成量は631 mlであったのに対し、実施例1の累積メタンガス生成量は1073
mlであった。また同様の実験条件で、参考例2では307 ml/g-添加溶存総有機炭素のメタン収率に対し、実施例1では590 ml/g-添加溶存総有機炭素のメタン収率であった。流動床に比べ固定床を具備したリアクタがより安定で、より多くの消化ガスが生成したと考えられる。
[Experimental results and discussion of Example 1 and Reference Example 2]
In Reference Example 2 in which foamed polyurethane is a fluidized bed having a pore number of 20/25 mm, the cumulative amount of methane gas produced after 42 days of culture was 631 ml, whereas the cumulative amount of methane gas produced in Example 1 was 1073.
ml. Further, under the same experimental conditions, the methane yield of 307 ml / g-added dissolved total organic carbon in Reference Example 2 was 590 ml / g-added dissolved total organic carbon in Example 1, and the methane yield of Reference Example 2 was 590 ml / g-added dissolved total organic carbon. It is believed that the reactor with the fixed bed was more stable than the fluidized bed, and more digestion gas was produced.
これらの実験結果から、嫌気性消化槽内に細孔数20個/25mmで固定床型発泡ポリウレタン担体を具備すると、効率よく嫌気性微生物が固定化され、有機性廃棄物の分解速度やガス化速度が向上することがわかる。 From these experimental results, anaerobic microorganisms are efficiently immobilized and organic waste decomposition rate and gasification when equipped with a fixed-bed foamed polyurethane carrier with 20 pores / 25mm in an anaerobic digester. It can be seen that the speed is improved.
