Abstract
- [Display omitted] • Biogas circulation at 5 L/min could not completely replace mechanical stirring. • Intermittent stripping mode proved applicable for in situ ammonia stripping. • Thermophilic digestion could be promoted to 90% of the methanogenic potential. • Exceeding the loading 4.2 g COD/L/d resulted in failure of the stripping mode. High-solid anaerobic digestion of hydrothermal sewage sludge has been developed. In order to upgrade the process by focusing on ammonia inhibition, a simply-equipped stripping system without additional alkali or heat supply was introduced by in situ biogas self-circulation. As the determined limit of total ammonia nitrogen at 1500 mg/L and 1000 mg/L for the mesophilic (MAD) and thermophilic anaerobic digestion (TAD) respectively and stripping rate at 5 L/min, continuous MAD and TAD was conducted in parallel. The stripping system successfully polished up the ammonia inhibition, and methanogenic capability of the TAD was promoted to approximately 90.0 % of the potential. Intermittent stripping mode proved usable. More frequent stripping was inevitable for the TAD as compared to the MAD. Hydraulic retention time below 20 d resulted in failure of the stripping mode due to rapid ammonia generation. Overall, this technology was practical in upgrading high-solid sludge digestion by effective ammonia control. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
