Abstract
Description
464 520 2 anaerob och slutligen aerob miljö. Processen blir härigenom mycket svårhanterlig. Även om man placerar denitrifikations- steget efter det första sedimentationssteget och därigenom eliminerar ett luftningssteg, så blir processen känslig' för miljöförändringar. 464 520 2 anaerobic and finally aerobic environment. This makes the process very difficult to handle. Even if the denitrification step is placed after the first sedimentation step and thereby an aeration step is eliminated, the process becomes sensitive to environmental changes.
I kommunalt avloppsvatten finns fosfor och kväve, vilka utgör viktiga närsalter för biomassan i recipienten. Alltför stora utsläpp av dessa närsalter leder till stor bioproduktion, vilket medför att sjöar och vattendrag eutrofieras och bl a blir otjänliga för människans rekreations- och friluftsaktivi- teter. Syftet med föreliggande uppfinning är att eliminera fosfor och kväve i avloppsvattnet samt att minska renings- processens känslighet för variationer i vattenmängd och vatten- kvalitet.Municipal wastewater contains phosphorus and nitrogen, which are important nutrients for the biomass in the recipient. Excessive emissions of these nutrients lead to large bioproduction, which means that lakes and watercourses are eutrophied and, among other things, become unusable for human recreational and outdoor activities. The object of the present invention is to eliminate phosphorus and nitrogen in the wastewater and to reduce the sensitivity of the purification process to variations in water quantity and water quality.
Uppfinningen avser sålunda ett förfarande för avlägsnande av fosfor och kväve ur avloppsvatten, och detta förfarande kännetecknas av att avloppsvatten från ett konventionellt sedimenteringssteg underkastas inverkan av anaeroba, sulfatredu- cerande bakterier i en anaerob reaktor för frigörande av fosfor i form av fosfatjoner och kväve i form av ammoniumjoner, varvid sulfat införes i den anaeroba reaktorn, och att vattnet från den anaeroba reaktorn i. ett fällningssteg behandlas med mag- nesiumjoner och fosfatjoner för utfällning av såväl ammonium- jonerna som fosfatjonerna i form av struvit.The invention thus relates to a process for removing phosphorus and nitrogen from wastewater, and this process is characterized in that wastewater from a conventional sedimentation step is subjected to the action of anaerobic, sulphate-reducing bacteria in an anaerobic reactor for releasing phosphorus in the form of phosphate and form ions. of ammonium ions, whereby sulphate is introduced into the anaerobic reactor, and that the water from the anaerobic reactor in a precipitation step is treated with magnesium ions and phosphate ions to precipitate both the ammonium ions and the phosphate ions in the form of struvite.
En föredragen utföringsform av' uppfinningen beskrives nedan under hänvisning till den bifogade ritningen.A preferred embodiment of the invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawing.
Första steget (1) är liksom i nu befintliga anläggningar ett sedimenteringssteg för lättsedimenterat material.The first step (1) is, as in existing plants, a sedimentation step for easily sedimented material.
I det andra steget (2) utnyttjas den anaeroba miljö som redan utbildats i avloppsvattnet under dess väg till renings- verket. I den använda anaeroba reaktorn kommer organiskt slam att avsättas på botten och utsättas för nedbrytning av anae- roba, sulfatreducerande bakterier, t ex av typen Desulfo- vibrio. I denna anaeroba miljö frigöres fosfor i form av fosfatjoner och kväve i form av ammoniumjoner. Sulfat i form av t ex natriumsulfat införes i den anaeroba reaktorn.In the second step (2), the anaerobic environment already formed in the wastewater during its journey to the treatment plant is utilized. In the anaerobic reactor used, organic sludge will be deposited on the bottom and subjected to the decomposition of anaerobic, sulphate-reducing bacteria, for example of the Desulfovibrio type. In this anaerobic environment, phosphorus in the form of phosphate ions and nitrogen in the form of ammonium ions are released. Sulfate in the form of, for example, sodium sulphate is introduced into the anaerobic reactor.
Slammet i botten av reaktorn avskiljes successivt för vidare behandling i en slamförtjockare (4). Slammet transpor- teras därefter vidare till en reaktor för metanjäsning (5), eller det deponeras eller förbrännes. Vattnet från slam- förtjockaren går till ett luftningssteg (6). Reaktionen i denna anaeroba reaktor är mindre känslig för miljöförändringar än ett denitrifikationssteg eller ett aerobt bakterie-luftnings- steg, eftersom bakterierna i den anaeroba reaktorn inte befin- ner sig i suspension utan sitter fast på det sedimenterade slammet.The sludge at the bottom of the reactor is successively separated for further treatment in a sludge thickener (4). The sludge is then transported to a methane fermentation reactor (5), or it is deposited or incinerated. The water from the sludge thickener goes to an aeration stage (6). The reaction in this anaerobic reactor is less sensitive to environmental changes than a denitrification step or an aerobic bacterial aeration step, since the bacteria in the anaerobic reactor are not in suspension but are attached to the sedimented sludge.
Vattnet från den anaeroba reaktorn ledes till ett tredje steg (3) innefattande en reaktor för kemisk utfällníng av struvit (MgNH4PO4-6H2O), som är ett mineral med låg löslig- hetsprodukt. I allmänhet finns ett överskott av kväve i för- hållande till fosfor och magnesium, varför en tillsats av såväl magnesiumjoner som fosfatjoner kommer att behövas. Detta kan ske genom tillsatser av t ex MgCl2, MgSO4 eller MgCO3 samt t ex K2HPO4 eller KHZPO4. De tillsatta mängderna bestämmes genom analyser av halterna av fosfat och ammonium samt genom kemiska jämviktsberäkningar. Efter sedimentering, eventuellt genom tillsats av flockningsmedel, får vattnet gå vidare till ett slutligt luftningssteg (6). Struvitslammet kan användas som gödningsmedel men kan också vidarebehandlas tillsammans med slammet från anaerobreaktorn i en reaktor för metanjäsning (5).The water from the anaerobic reactor is passed to a third stage (3) comprising a reactor for chemical precipitation of struvite (MgNH4PO4-6H2O), which is a mineral with low solubility product. In general, there is an excess of nitrogen in relation to phosphorus and magnesium, so an addition of both magnesium ions and phosphate ions will be needed. This can be done by additions of eg MgCl2, MgSO4 or MgCO3 and eg K2HPO4 or KHZPO4. The amounts added are determined by analyzes of the levels of phosphate and ammonium as well as by chemical equilibrium calculations. After sedimentation, possibly by adding flocculants, the water is allowed to proceed to a final aeration step (6). The struvite sludge can be used as a fertilizer but can also be further treated together with the sludge from the anaerobreactor in a reactor for methane fermentation (5).
Reaktorn för metanjäsning (5) kan utformas på sed- vanligt sätt, såsom sker vid ett flertal reningsverk redan i dag. Vattnet från denna reaktor kan lämpligen helt eller delvis átercirkuleras till den anaeroba reaktorn (2). Den anaeroba miljön i denna reaktor förbättras härigenom, varvid ett stabilare system erhålles. Ett metanjäsningssteg medför dessutom en minskning av de slammängder som skall gå till deponering.The reactor for methane fermentation (5) can be designed in the usual way, as is the case at several treatment plants already today. The water from this reactor may conveniently be wholly or partly recirculated to the anaerobic reactor (2). The anaerobic environment in this reactor is thereby improved, whereby a more stable system is obtained. A methane fermentation step also entails a reduction in the amounts of sludge that must go to landfill.
