A loop microbial fuel cell (MFC) system consisting of a denitrifying organics/sulfide removal MFC and a nitrification chamber was developed, and its performance at different feeding ratios of total organic carbon to sulfide (TOC/S) and dissolved oxygen (DO) levels of cathodic feeding were investigated. High feeding TOC/S ratio favored elemental sulfur production and anodic electron recovery. Introducing oxygen into the cathode enhanced nitrogen removal and electricity generation but hindered elemental sulfur production. At the optimal feeding TOC/S mass ratio of 4.69 and cathodic feeding DO of 4.2 mg/L, 100% of TOC, 100% of sulfide and 82.6 ± 0.9% of total nitrogen were removed, achieving a sulfur production percentage of 35.1 ± 4.4% and a coulombic efficiency of 53.0 ± 2.2%. Cathodic nitrogen removal was catalyzed by denitrifiers, nitrifiers and anammox bacteria. This work provided a novel approach for simultaneously removing organics, sulfide and ammonium coupled with electricity generation from wastewater.
开发了一种由反硝化有机物/硫化物去除微生物燃料电池(MFC)和硝化室组成的循环微生物燃料电池(MFC)系统,并研究了其在不同总有机碳与硫化物进料比(TOC/S)以及阴极进料溶解氧(DO)水平下的性能。高进料TOC/S比有利于元素硫的产生和阳极电子回收。向阴极引入氧气可增强氮去除和发电,但会阻碍元素硫的产生。在最佳进料TOC/S质量比为4.69且阴极进料DO为4.2 mg/L时,100%的TOC、100%的硫化物和82.6±0.9%的总氮被去除,元素硫产生率达到35.1±4.4%,库仑效率为53.0±2.2%。阴极氮去除由反硝化细菌、硝化细菌和厌氧氨氧化细菌催化。这项工作为同时去除废水中的有机物、硫化物和铵并耦合发电提供了一种新方法。
