Description

  The present invention relates to a biological purification treatment method for sewage from a livestock barn (hereinafter referred to as livestock barn sewage) using shochu manufacturing waste liquid, and is particularly suitable for livestock bar sewage containing a large amount of nitrogen from a pig barn etc. The present invention also relates to a biological purification treatment method in which organic matter treatment and denitrification treatment are carried out by biological methods.

  Conventionally, a part of livestock manure has been used as organic fertilizer and materials for soil improvement, but most of it has been discarded, and has the aspect of being the largest organic industrial waste in Japan. The treatment of livestock manure is carried out at in-house treatment facilities and joint treatment facilities. And most of the solids are composted and used, but urine is partly used for spraying, but is currently discarded after purification. More specifically, after removing substances (including fertilizer components) suspended and dissolved in livestock urine sewage from the sewage, it is purified to treated water that meets the release standards of the water area. ing. Under such circumstances, the problem with livestock house sewage purification technology is that eutrophication in closed water areas and nitrogen and phosphorus, which may cause groundwater nitric acid contamination, are highly efficient and low cost. It is a technology to remove. Among the livestock sewage, it is piggery sewage that has a high ratio of total nitrogen to BOD. In general, the ratio of BOD: total nitrogen suitable for biological treatment is about 100: 5, whereas piggery sewage is extremely sewage with excessive nitrogen, and its biological purification treatment is very difficult.

  As a method for purifying wastewater containing a large amount of nitrate nitrogen, a floating activated sludge method is generally used in which denitrification sludge is used for denitrification. However, the floating activated sludge method has an advantage that it can treat a large amount of wastewater, but requires a large installation area, so it is difficult to install in a place where there is not enough room. Further, there is a problem that the denitrification sludge is floated by nitrogen gas generated by the denitrification process, flows out along with the treated water (hereinafter referred to as treated water), and the treatment load is reduced.

  As another method for treating waste water containing nitrate nitrogen, there is a method using a fluidized bed type water treatment device. The present applicant has proposed a biological denitrification method for wastewater that allows high-load treatment of nitrate nitrogen without the problem of floating or outflow of denitrified sludge (see Patent Document 1). According to such a method, since the denitrified sludge becomes a high-density granulated product, it is possible to prevent the denitrified sludge from floating up and down due to the denitrification reaction of the nitrate nitrogen-containing wastewater. Further, since it is possible to perform high-load treatment with nitrate nitrogen as compared with the conventional floating activated sludge method, the installation area is small, and the apparatus can be made compact.

  In recent years, a small livestock farm has been established in accordance with the “Law Concerning the Optimization of Livestock Excretion Management and Promotion of Utilization” (enforced from November 2004), which called for further optimization of livestock excrement disposal in the livestock industry. Treatment is also required for wastewater treatment. For this reason, a simple and efficient processing method that can be installed even in a small-scale office, has achieved further downsizing / simplification of equipment, lower cost and lower running cost than conventional ones. The development of is eagerly desired. In particular, it would be very useful if a simple and efficient method for biological treatment with a more compact facility was developed for sewage from pig houses with high nitrogen content, which was pointed out as difficult to treat. It is.

  On the other hand, the amount of shochu discharged has increased due to the recent shochu boom, and its treatment has become a problem. Shochu is a residue obtained by distilling alcohol-fermented “Moromi” and taking out the product, but it is about twice as much as the product. Conventionally, shochu treatment methods include field spraying and offshore disposal, but in recent years it is shifting to land treatment. As land treatment methods, because of the rich nutrition of shochu, combined use of methane fermentation and conversion to feed, and dry feed, etc., are being carried out, but incineration and other treatments are also frequently performed. However, shochu is liquid and contains a large amount of water, and it contains 70% of water as a dehydrated cake. A large amount of fossil fuel is required for both use and incineration. The development of a processing method that reduces this problem has become an issue. Therefore, it would be very useful if a biological treatment technique for shochu could be established.

JP-A-8-167175

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a purification method that can easily and efficiently biologically treat livestock sewage containing a large amount of nitrogen from a piggery or the like. Furthermore, another object of the present invention is to provide a biological treatment method capable of easily treating shochu without consuming a large amount of fossil fuel as in the conventional treatment method.

  The above object is achieved by the present invention described below. That is, the present invention is a biological purification treatment method of sewage using livestock sewage containing a large amount of organic matter and nitrogen as treated water, and a membrane separation activated sludge process for performing biological oxidation treatment of treated water; And a denitrification step using a fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment device for treating nitrate nitrogen, and after the organic matter treatment and nitrogen oxidation treatment in the membrane separation activated sludge step, The condensed water of shochu is added to the treated water to replenish the organic matter, and the denitrifying bacteria in the apparatus are propagated. In the denitrifying step, the treated water containing the organic matter and nitrate nitrogen is fluidized bed type anaerobic water. Shochu production characterized in that it is fed from the lower part of the treatment apparatus to make it an upward flow, and denitrification sludge containing denitrification bacteria in the apparatus and the water to be treated are brought into contact with stirring to treat nitrate nitrogen. This is a biological purification treatment method of sewage from livestock barn using waste liquid.

  The following is mentioned as a preferable form of the biological purification processing method of the above-mentioned livestock barn wastewater. In the above description, the BOD value of the sewage from the livestock barn after the sewage from the livestock barn is the sewage from the pig barn or the treated water 100 after being treated in the membrane separation activated sludge process Examples include a biological purification treatment method for sewage from a livestock barn where 6,000 to 20,000 mg / L of shochu condensate is added in a range of 2 to 30 on a volume basis.

  In the present invention, after the organic substance treatment and nitrogen oxidation (nitrification) treatment by aerobic microorganisms in the membrane separation activated sludge process, the solution is further nitrated in the denitrification process using a fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment device. Nitrogen is treated, but denitrifying bacteria in the above treatment apparatus are grown by adding the condensate of shochu to the water to be treated treated in the membrane separation activated sludge process, thereby increasing the denitrification bacteria. Provided is a biological purification treatment method for sewage from a livestock barn that achieves denitrification treatment efficiency. At the same time, in the present invention, a biological purification process of sewage from a livestock barn that can realize a simple biological process for shochu with a high BOD value that has been discharged in large quantities in recent years and whose processing has become a problem. Provide a method.

  Next, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to preferred embodiments. In the method for purifying sewage from a livestock bar of the present invention, livestock bar sewage containing a large amount of organic matter and nitrogen is used as raw water. Particularly suitable treatment targets to which the method of the present invention is applied include urine-containing sewage from livestock houses, particularly pig houses. As mentioned above, piggery sewage is known to be difficult to treat because it is a sewage with a remarkably excessive nitrogen content relative to BOD. According to the biological purification treatment method of sewage of the present invention, simple and efficient treatment can be performed even for pig sewage that is difficult to treat.

  The following survey reports have been made as general data on “contaminant concentration and load in manure” from the piggery. The following data is the amount of manure per adult animal.

  Table 2 shows the properties when the mixed manure in the above is removed. In the method of the present invention, as shown below, sewage after the removal of solids is the target of treatment, but as shown in Table 2, the target sewage is extremely nitrogenous relative to BOD. Is expensive.

  The method for purifying sewage from a livestock bar according to the present invention comprises a membrane separation activated sludge process that performs organic substance treatment and nitrogen oxidation treatment, and a denitrification process that treats nitrate nitrogen using a fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment device that is performed thereafter. A nitrogenation step, but after the treatment in the membrane separation activated sludge step, an organic substance that contributes to improving the efficiency of the denitrification step is added by adding a condensate of shochu to the treated water. . The condensate of shochu refers to a distillate obtained by redistilling shochu, which is a liquid containing a solid content remaining after distillation. In the present invention, after treatment in the membrane separation activated sludge process, denitrification treatment is carried out with a fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment device. At this time, the denitrification activated sludge in the device can be granulated to some extent. As a result, the floating outflow of activated sludge is suppressed, and efficient processing becomes possible.

Table 3 shows the analysis results of the condensate of shochu discharged as a by-product from the shochu production process. As is clear from Table 3, the nitrogen content of the condensate of shochu is extremely low, while the BOD value, which is an indicator of the biodegradable organic substance concentration, is extremely high. It is optimal for the purpose of growing denitrifying bacteria in the device.

  Hereinafter, the first-stage membrane separation activated sludge process, the second-stage denitrification process, and the condensate of shochu to be performed when the process moves from the first stage to the second stage. The addition of the liquid will be described respectively.

(1) Membrane-separated activated sludge process Membrane-separated activated sludge treatment performed in the first step of the present invention is a kind of organic substance removal technique using activated sludge. In this method, solid-liquid separation in a sedimentation basin is performed by a membrane unit immersed in an aerobic tank (aeration tank). Since it is the structure which obtains treated water by direct filtration by this membrane unit, the activated sludge in an aeration tank can be kept at high concentration. At the same time, since solid-liquid separation is not performed in the sedimentation basin, processing in a short time is possible. In addition, since there is no need for a settling tank, there is also an advantage of saving space compared to the conventional activated sludge method. In the membrane separation activated sludge treatment step performed in the first step of the present invention, treatment of soluble organic matter in raw water and oxidation (nitrification) of nitrogen content are performed. The membrane separation activated sludge method used in the present invention has the advantages as described above, but basically, as described below, a normal activated sludge method for performing aerobic microorganism treatment using an aeration tank. It is the same. That is, organic matter in raw water is used for bacterial growth to become SS, and a part of SS is eaten and removed by protozoa in activated sludge, and the other is adsorbed or absorbed by activated sludge floc, To be separated. As a result, a part of the organic matter in the raw water is consumed as a biological energy source, and the other part becomes a living organism or a storage material, which is separated by solid-liquid separation and removed. Nitrogen in raw water is oxidized (ammonia → nitrite → nitric acid) during activated sludge treatment.

(2) Addition of condensate of shochu In the method of the present invention, after the treatment in the above-mentioned membrane separation activated sludge process, it is further treated in a fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment device in the subsequent denitrification process. Although denitrification is performed, in the present invention, a condensate of shochu is added to the water to be treated when the process proceeds to the second denitrification step. Since shochu has a low nitrogen content and a high BOD, the growth of denitrifying bacteria constituting the denitrifying activated sludge in the apparatus can be activated. Further, as described above, in the present invention, the denitrification activated sludge in the apparatus is granulated, and the denitrification activated sludge is prevented from floating and flowing out. As a result, efficient processing is possible. The amount of shochu condensate added in the present invention varies depending on the BOD value of the condensate and is not particularly limited, but for the water 100 to be treated after being treated in the membrane separation activated sludge process, For example, if it is a normal shochu condensate having a BOD value of 6,000 to 20,000 mg / L, it may be added in a range of 2 to 30 on a volume basis.

  In the denitrification step performed in the present invention, the treatment is performed using a fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment device, which will be described later. The denitrification activated sludge in the apparatus includes seed sludge containing denitrifying bacteria and denitrifying bacteria grown using organic matter in treated water as nutrients. As shown in Table 3, the condensate of shochu used in the present invention shows a very high BOD value while having a low nitrogen content, and has a large amount of organic substances that contribute to the growth of bacteria. For this reason, the proliferation of denitrifying bacteria (denitrifying activated sludge) in the apparatus is promoted, and the life activity of the denitrifying bacteria can be greatly activated. As a result, denitrification treatment is performed efficiently even for treated water with a very high nitrate nitrogen content such as livestock sewage, and at the same time, biological treatment of shochu that exhibits an extremely high BOD value. The purification process is also performed efficiently. Moreover, in this invention, the denitrification activated sludge can be granulated and the effect that the floating and outflow of a denitrification activated sludge is also acquired, The efficient process is attained also from this point.

In the present invention, it is also preferable to use water containing Ca ²⁺ in the water to be treated. As will be described below, denitrification sludge can be granulated by the presence of Ca ²⁺ , so that the denitrification activated sludge can be prevented from rising and flowing out as described above, and efficient treatment can be achieved. In this case, the processing mechanism is considered as follows. First, the water to be treated containing Ca ²⁺ is supplied from the lower part of the fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment device to make an upward flow, and the denitrified sludge containing the denitrifying bacteria in the device and the water to be treated are stirred. And Ca ^{2+ in the} water to be treated is reacted with dissolved carbon dioxide to produce CaCO ₃ . The denitrification activated sludge in the apparatus is granulated using the generated CaCO ₃ as a nucleus, and nitrate nitrogen in the water to be treated is denitrified by the granulated denitrogen sludge to generate nitrogen gas. Next, the denitrification process will be described in detail.

(3) Denitrification step In the denitrification step performed in the present invention, denitrified sludge is granulated as described above, and nitrate nitrogen is treated with the granulated denitrogen sludge. Since the granulated denitrified sludge has a higher density than normal sludge, the nitrogen gas generated by denitrification of nitrate nitrogen is prevented from rising above the denitrification tank, and the sludge is denitrified. Since it stays in the tank, it is possible to efficiently denitrify nitrate nitrogen.

  An example of a fluidized bed anaerobic water treatment apparatus that can be used in the present invention is shown in FIG. Reference numeral 1 denotes a denitrification tank. The treated water is sent from the raw water inflow pipe 2 to the raw water receiving section 3 and supplied to the denitrification tank through the stirrer shaft and raw water flow down pipe 4. At the bottom of the stirrer shaft 4 is a turbine blade 5 for raising the water to be treated and sludge settling in the denitrification tank as an upward flow, and a sludge agitation paddle blade 6 at the upper part. It is attached. This agitator shaft 4 is rotated by a variable agitator 7. The treated sewage rises to the treated water collecting unit 8 and is discharged from the treated water outlet 9. Reference numeral 10 denotes a sampling pipe, 11 denotes a sludge discharge port, 12 denotes a drain outlet, and 13 denotes a frame for fixing the denitrification tank 1.

  Since the water to be treated after treating livestock sewage such as piggery in the membrane separation activated sludge process contains a large amount of nitrate nitrogen, a fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment method can be applied. In the fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment apparatus described above, the water to be treated is treated as follows. First, the water to be treated, to which the condensate of shochu is added, is supplied to the lower part of the denitrification tank 1 through the raw water flow down pipe 4, and becomes an upward flow by the rotation of the turbine blade 5. Ascend and come into contact with denitrified activated sludge in the tank. Nitrate nitrogen in the water to be treated is denitrified by this denitrification sludge, and nitrogen gas is generated. However, the denitrification activated sludge in the denitrification tank 1 is prevented from rising to the upper part of the denitrification tank 1 due to this nitrogen gas, and the sludge remains in the denitrification tank. The denitrification activated sludge used in the present invention includes seed sludge containing denitrification bacteria and denitrification activated sludge grown using organic matter in treated water as a nutrient source. As described above, in the method of the present invention, the condensate of shochu is added so that there is sufficient organic matter in the treatment tank to assist the growth of denitrifying bacteria. Nitrogen is efficiently performed, and good treatment can be performed for sewage in livestock houses such as pig houses that contain a large amount of nitrate nitrogen.

  The denitrified sludge in the denitrification tank comes into contact with the water to be treated under agitation, but the agitation is performed by the agitation paddle blade 6 attached to the agitator shaft 4. Preferable stirring for promoting granulation of denitrified sludge is stirring in which the peripheral speed at the tip of the stirring blade is in the range of 3 to 30 cm / sec.

  The apparatus shown in FIG. 2 is an example of an apparatus used in the present invention. The treated water may be supplied directly to the lower part of the apparatus, and the means for making the treated water upward flow is a method other than the rotation of the turbine blades. For example, means such as supply of water to be treated by a pump may be used. It is preferable that the water to be treated is supplied by adjusting the inflow speed so as to be an upward flow of 0.4 to 3.0 m / hr and brought into contact with the denitrified sludge. Further, the shape, type, number, etc. of the stirring blades are not particularly limited in the stirring of the denitrified sludge, except that the peripheral speed at the tip of the stirring blade is within the above range.

  The seed sludge concentration (MLSS) containing the initial denitrifying bacteria in the denitrification tank is usually preferably 5,000 to 15,000 mg / L. The sludge partially settles at the bottom of the tank, but rises with the upward flow of the water to be treated. Then, the sludge and the water to be treated under stirring are subjected to a treatment such as denitrification by the contact of both. Further, the treated water that has been treated rises to the treated water collection section at the upper part of the tank, and is discharged as treated water from which nitrate nitrogen and the like have been removed from the treated water outlet.

Next, the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to examples.
[Example 1]
The treatment system (apparatus) shown in FIG. 1 was used to conduct a purification treatment test on actual livestock sewage.
(Raw water)
The raw water was defecationed from swine sewage and subjected to a continuous treatment test for about 5 months. Table 4 shows the results of water quality analysis for the treated raw water, but the BOD: N was 100: 29 and excessive nitrogen, although it was lower than the general water quality after defecation. In the table, K-N means the amount of nitrogen measured by the Kjeldahl method of wet analysis. In this case, the total amount of organic nitrogen and ammonia nitrogen is measured. In the case of swine sewage, it is unlikely that nitrate nitrogen and nitrite nitrogen are contained, so Kjeldahl nitrogen = total nitrogen can be considered.

(Test method)
The purification treatment test was conducted using a 20 L / day scale apparatus. First, raw water was introduced into the membrane-separated activated sludge tank of the apparatus of FIG. 1 for treatment, and organic matter treatment and nitrogen oxidation (nitrification) were performed. Next, the water to be treated after the above treatment was mixed into the circulation line of the fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment apparatus for treatment. As shown in FIG. 1, in this embodiment, the processing was performed by mixing the shochu condensate into this circulation line. As a result, the nitrogen nitrified in the membrane separation activated sludge tank is treated by the denitrification action of the denitrified sludge in the fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment device. The test conditions in the apparatus of FIG.

(Processing result by membrane separation activated sludge method)
Table 6 shows the results of water quality analysis of the membrane separation activated sludge process water after treatment in the membrane separation activated sludge tank performed as described above. As shown in Table 6, the water to be treated after being treated in the membrane separation activated sludge tank had a BOD of <5 mg / L and a COD of about 60 mg / L. This indicates that the organic matter in the piggery sewage was sufficiently treated by the membrane separation activated sludge method, and in this respect, it was confirmed that treated water with good water quality was obtained. On the other hand, it was confirmed that the nitrogen content was oxidized.

(Results of treatment with fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment equipment)
The glass cylindrical reactor (see FIG. 2) of the fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment apparatus used for the test has a diameter of 8 cm, a length of the straight body part of 77 cm (effective volume is about 4 liters), and the length of the precipitation part is 26 cm (volume is about 2.5 liters). In addition, two mesh-like stirring blades were installed in four stages on the rotating shaft in the reactor, and rotated by a motor (M) so that the tip peripheral speed of the stirring blade was 10 cm / sec. The treated water introduced from the circulation line is supplied to the lower part of the reactor at a rate of 2.5 m / hr so as to have an upward flow of 0.6 m / hr by a pump (P). The treated water that has been treated and raised to the sedimentation section overflows and is sent to the treated water tank.

The analysis results of the water introduced into the fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment apparatus and the treated water are shown in FIG. Since NO _x -N membrane separation activated sludge process water described above was an average 230 mg / L, for the purpose of further increasing the nitrogen load, further, the nitrogen concentration by adding sodium nitrate 530 mg / L, nitrogen A study was also conducted on sewage with a higher concentration of nitrate nitrogen at a volumetric load of 3 kg / m ³ / day. As shown in FIG. 3, good processability was also ensured when the nitrogen concentration was increased. The required amount of shochu condensate at this time was 300 to 350 kg per 1 kg of nitrate nitrogen in the membrane-separated activated sludge process water. Further, the BOD and COD after the treatment were almost the same values as the above-mentioned membrane separation activated sludge treated water. This is because, despite the addition of shochu condensate rich in organic matter, these organic matter is used for the growth of denitrifying bacteria, so that the BOD value and COD value of treated water are not affected. It shows no. Furthermore, immediately after the start of the treatment, a part of the sludge surfaced, but as the treatment progressed, the sludge granulation progressed (confirmed by visual observation), and it was confirmed that the sludge surface was not observed.

[Comparative Example 1]
Using the treatment system (apparatus) shown in FIG. 1, the same treatment test as in Example 1 was conducted except that the condensate of shochu was not added to the circulation line to the fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment device. As a result, it was found that the concentration of NO _x -N in the treated water was almost the same as the concentration flowing into the apparatus, and sufficient denitrification was not performed.

It is a figure which shows an example of the apparatus used in the Example. It is a schematic diagram for demonstrating the fluidized bed type anaerobic water treatment apparatus used by this invention. It is a figure which shows the result processed in Example 1. FIG.
