In the present study, the treatment of synthetic landfill leachate was carried out using a lab-scale anaerobic hybrid membrane bioreactor (An-HMBR). The reactor was operated for 250 days at two days of hydraulic retention time (HRT). Average chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency was ≥ 88% at steady-state conditions at 100% raw leachate. As organic loading rate (OLR) increased from 1.6 to 13.9 Kg COD m d, flux gradually declined from 70 to 52 L/m h (LMH) within 250 days. Chemical membrane cleaning enhanced the flux up to 75% of the initial flux at the final stage of the reactor. Reversible fouling (>90%) dominated over irreversible fouling (<8%). Membrane fouling was mainly caused by extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) fraction, which resulted in cake layer formation on the ceramic membrane used in the An-HMBR system. Membrane resistance increased with variables in the following order OLR > MLSS (mixed liquor suspended solids) > EPS > SMP (soluble microbial products). A nonlinear regression model developed for prediction of membrane resistance at different OLR can predict with an error of ±7%.
在本研究中,使用实验室规模的厌氧混合膜生物反应器(An-HMBR)处理合成垃圾渗滤液。在水力停留时间(HRT)为 2 天的条件下,该反应器运行了 250 天。在稳态条件下,当进水渗滤液 100%为原水时,平均化学需氧量(COD)去除率≥88%。随着有机负荷率(OLR)从 1.6 增加到 13.9 Kg COD m d,通量在 250 天内逐渐从 70 降至 52 L/m h(LMH)。化学膜清洗可将通量提高至反应器末期初始通量的 75%。可恢复性污染(>90%)占主导地位,不可逆污染(<8%)。膜污染主要是由胞外聚合物物质(EPS)引起的,这导致陶瓷膜上形成了滤饼层。膜阻力随变量的变化按以下顺序增加:OLR > MLSS(混合液悬浮固体)> EPS > SMP(可溶性微生物产物)。针对不同 OLR 开发的膜阻力预测非线性回归模型可预测误差为±7%。
