RESEARCH PROGRESS OF ANAEROBIC MEMBRANE BIOREACTOR (ANMBR) PROCESS FOR MUNICIPAL WASTEWATER TREATMENT
-
摘要: 厌氧膜生物反应器(AnMBR)以其优良的出水水质和较高的净产能潜力逐渐成为市政污水处理领域的有力技术。然而,膜污染控制具有较高的工艺运行成本,同时常规运行中环境温度通常偏低,这将导致厌氧微生物活性降低和甲烷溶解度升高,不利于能源回收以及对温室气体排放的控制。此外,市政污水中硫酸盐的广泛存在对产甲烷过程也有较为显著的影响。为全面了解AnMBR在市政污水处理中的研究进展,从有机物去除、甲烷产量和污泥产量3个方面评价了工艺的运行效能,分析了工艺应用过程中主要的挑战和解决方式,并在此基础上展望AnMBR在市政污水处理中的发展方向,旨在为推广AnMBR处理低浓度市政污水,实现污水中资源及能源的回用提供参考。Abstract: Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) has become a powerful technology for municipal wastewater treatment due to its excellent effluent quality and high net productivity potential. However, membrane fouling causes high energy consumption. Besides, operating at ambient temperature will reduce the anaerobic microbial activity and increase the methane solubility, which is not conducive to energy recovery and greenhouse gas emission control. In addition, the widespread existence of sulfate in municipal wastewater also has a significant impact on the process of methane production. For a comprehensive understanding of AnMBR research progress in municipal wastewater treatment, this paper evaluated the process’s efficiency from three aspects: organic matters’ removal, methane yield and sludge production. Then, the main challenges and solutions in the process of technology application were analyzed and discussed. At last, the technical challenges in enhancing AnMBR development from a number of different perspectives were pointed out, aiming to provide a reference for promoting AnMBR treatment of low-concentration municipal wastewater and realizing the recovery of resources and energy in municipal wastewater.
