Municipal sludge treatment and disposal is an important component that cannot be ignored in the field of carbon reduction.This study combined the emission factor method and actual operating parameters in the project case to calculate the carbon footprint of three promising tech-nology route:anaerobic digestion+thermal drying+collaborative disposal of cement kiln,biologi-cal drying+thermal drying+collaborative disposal of cement kiln,and biological drying+pyrolysis +collaborative disposal of cement kiln.The results showed that the carbon emission of the tech-nology route of biological drying+thermal drying+collaborative disposal of cement kiln was the lowest,which was mainly due to the low energy consumption of dehydration and high energy con-version efficiency in the process of biological drying.In order to further reduce the carbon emis-sions generated during anaerobic digestion and pyrolysis,the development of low-carbon sludge conditioning agents suitable for terminal disposal and the optimization of pyrolysis processes were the directions that need to be paid attention to in the future.At the same time,the optimization of conditioning agents,bactericides and control parameters can effectively improve the degradation ef-ficiency of organic matter in sludge,enhance the dehydration effect of biological drying,and was also expected to promote carbon emission reduction in sludge treatment.
Biochar modified by H3PO4 treatment can be used to purify malodorous gases during bio-drying of sludge, but the current understanding of multi-component adsorption of malodorous gases through biochar is limited. This study examined the adsorption mechanism of mixed malodorous gases including toluene and ammonia (NH3) on two kinds of biochar modified via H3PO4 pretreatment before and after pyrolysis. The biochar obtained by H3PO4 pretreatment of biomass before pyrolysis (C550) preferred to adsorb NH3 whether in the single or the dual system. In contrast, the biochar obtained by H3PO4 reprocessing after pyrolysis of biomass (C350-550) tended to adsorb toluene in the dual system but was more efficient in absorbing NH3 in the single system. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model indicated the synergistic adsorption between NH3 and toluene for all biochar samples. In-situ DRIFTS of C350-550 during adsorption demonstrated the formation of amino functional groups caused by NH3 chemical adsorption with -OH (or -COOH) in the dual system. These increases in basic groups on C350-550 could enhance the surface zero potential point of C350-550, thereby improving the non-polarity of C350-550 and benefit the adsorption of weak polar toluene.
采用共焦显微拉曼光谱仪探索不同热解温度(500~900℃)条件下所制备的污泥基生物炭结构变化的表征方法.结果表明,拉曼信号的荧光干扰与生物炭的理化特性有较强的相关性.随着热解温度升高,拉曼漂移系数减小,这与污泥基生物炭挥发分含量、H/C和O/C比变化趋势一致.其中,漂移系数与挥发分含量和H/C的相关性指数分别是0.97和0.94,其变化规律可用来准确评估生物炭挥发分含量和H/C的变化.同时,生物炭在拉曼光谱中的特征峰强度比D/G随着热解温度升高而增强,代表了污泥基生物炭无序化程度增加的过程.谷区域(V)与D峰强度比IV/ID随热解温度升高而减小,表明具有缺陷的稠合芳环结构的比例增加;另外,经分峰拟合后得到的ID1/IG1变化较小,而ID2/IG2呈增加趋势,证实了小分子侧链基团断裂形成的化合物部分沉积在炭表面,形成缺陷和非晶结构;IG1/IG2随着热解温度升高而减小,表明了炭基材料键角有序与无序比随着热解温度的升高而降低.因此,拉曼光谱可用于表征污泥基生物炭的微观结构变化,反映其结构演变规律.
