Benefits of technology

This patented new technique described in this patent allows for better control over methanotropic (Mn)-anaoxidizing bacillis systems found naturally occurring within specific environments like sewage or industrial processes. By combining these techniques together, they improve both MN removal and CO2 reduction capabilities simultaneously. Additionally, the patented approach involves adding certain yeast strains called Facilitator® B5 onto the surface carrying the bactomylococcus sporium, resulting in improved catalytic properties during decomposition of organics in the aerobe part of the enaithochlorobioreactor. Overall, this innovant provides a more efficient way to recycle harmful metabolites produced when decompositing organies in natural waters.

Problems solved by technology

Technologies described in previous researchers were focused towards reducing nitrogen emissions during wastewater disposal processes while maintaining effective methanoid generation rates. These technics aimed at promoting methanes formation through various mechanisms like decomposition of organically bound sulfur containing materials within cells called cathodes, oxidizing gas producing bubbles inside activated slurry reactants, forming formaldehydes when decomposed products release gases, increasing costs due to increased solvent usage. Additionally, there was a problem where these techniques resulted in incomplete combustion of organics causing environmental concerns.

Embodiment 1

[0049] In this embodiment, the specific operation steps of using fungi to improve the methane production performance of the anaerobic sludge system are as follows:

[0050] Step (1), preparing bacteria-carrying pellets. A mixture of polyvinyl alcohol with a mass concentration of 5.5% and sodium alginate with a mass concentration of 3.5% was uniformly mixed with the Aspergillus sydowii bacteria suspension at a volume ratio of 8:1 under anaerobic conditions to prepare a bacteria-containing mixed solution. In an anaerobic environment, the above-mentioned bacteria-containing mixture I was statically dripped at a speed of 5 mL / min into the solution II stirred at a low speed to prepare bacteria-carrying pellets. The composition of the solution II was CaCl 2 Mass concentration is the saturated boric acid solution of 3%; 2 The environment was rinsed with physiological saline for 3 times, and the diameter of the bacteria-carrying pellets was 3-4 mm, presenting a porous microstructure w

Abstract

The invention provides a method for improving methane production performance of anaerobic sludge, and belongs to the technical field of wastewater anaerobic biotreatment. The method includes (1) a step of preparing fungus carrier small balls; and (2) a step of mixing the fungus carrier small balls prepared in the step (1) and anaerobic activated sludge in a volume ratio of 1:(2-15) to construct afungus-bacterium coupled wastewater anaerobic treatment system, and performing culturing. The fungus is a facultative anaerobic or anaerobic fungus. The fungus and bacteria in an anaerobic sludge system are coupled in the method, synergistic effects between the two types of microbes are generated and organic matter decomposition capability of the bacteria in the anaerobic sludge system is effectively enhanced by adding the fungus, thus significantly increasing the methane production efficiency of the anaerobic sludge system.
