Abstract

The process uses natural gas which is passed in the form of a gas through at least one feed well (6, 15) into the groundwater upstream of the groundwater removal point (9). The natural gas can be passed together with gaseous carbon dioxide and a nutrient solution into the groundwater pipe (12). It is also possible for gaseous oxygen to be passed through further feed wells (2) into the groundwater. <IMAGE>

Description

DK 171819 B1 iDK 171819 B1 i

Opfindelsen angår en fremgangsmåde til kontinuerlig mikrobiologisk denitrifikation af grundvand ved hjælp af naturgas, især methan, og en indretning til gennemførsel af fremgangsmåden.The invention relates to a method for continuous microbiological denitrification of groundwater by means of natural gas, especially methane, and a device for carrying out the process.

5 De for tiden lovligt tilladte maksimale koncen trationer på 90 mg NO3 pr. liter i drikkevand nedsættes snart til 50 mg NO3 pr. liter. EF-standardværdien er endnu lavere, 25 mg NO3 pr. liter. For vandværkerne bliver det følgeligt nødvendigt, at gribe til foranstalt-10 ninger til formindskelse af for høje nitratkoncentrationer, for at undgå standsning. Grundvandets nitratindhold er særligt højt i nærheden af intensivt dyrkede jordbrugsarealer på grund af de store mængder tilført gødning og gylle.5 The currently legally permitted maximum concentrations of 90 mg of NO liter in drinking water is soon reduced to 50 mg NO3 per liter. liter. The EC standard value is even lower, 25 mg NO3 per day. liter. Consequently, for the waterworks it is necessary to take measures to reduce nitrate concentrations too high, in order to avoid stopping. The nitrate content of the groundwater is particularly high in the vicinity of intensively cultivated agricultural areas due to the large quantities of fertilizers and manure supplied.

15 Nitratet i sig selv er ganske vist ikke giftigt i den indtil nu tilladelige koncentration, dog kan dets omdannelsesprodukter, såsom nitrit og nitrosaminforbindelser føre til sundhedsskade. Også den af nitratet fremkaldte stigende hårdhed af grundvandet må anses for 20 økonomisk uheldig.15 Although the nitrate itself is not toxic in the concentration so far permitted, its conversion products, such as nitrite and nitrosamine compounds, can lead to health damage. Also, the increasing hardness of the nitrate caused by the groundwater must be considered economically unfortunate.

Kendte fremgangsmåder til denitrifikation af drikkevand beror på en iodbytning, anvendt osmose eller en mikrobiologisk nedbrydning i amlæg over jorden.Known methods for the denitrification of drinking water are based on an iodine exchange, applied osmosis or a microbiological degradation in groundnuts.

Ved de mikrobiologiske fremgangsmåder benyttes 25 reaktorer, der er anbragt over jorden, med fastlejrede eller fluidiserede partikellag, hvori enten sand eller andre materialer med kornet struktur udgør bærematerialet for en biomasse. Da biomassen til stadighed forøges hvorved reaktorens virkningsfuldhed hæmmes, er det for 30 reaktorer med fast leje nødvendigt med skylleanlæg, således at den dannede biomasse fra tid til anden fjernes fra reaktoren. I reaktorer med fluidiseret leje udskylles bakterieoverskuddet kontinuerligt med strømmen, med en efterfølgende adskillelse der fra.Yderligere kan det 35 være nødvendigt med en efter rensning af det vand, der forlader nitrifikationsreaktoren, ved iltning og efter-filtrering.In the microbiological methods, 25 reactors placed above the ground are used with fixed or fluidized particle layers, in which either sand or other granular structure materials constitute the support material for a biomass. As the biomass is constantly increased thereby inhibiting the efficacy of the reactor, for 30 fixed-bed reactors, flushing systems are needed so that the biomass formed from time to time is removed from the reactor. In fluidized bed reactors, the bacterial excess is continuously flushed with the stream, with a subsequent separation therefrom. Further, after purification of the water leaving the nitrification reactor, oxygenation and post-filtration may be necessary.

2 DK 171819 B1 I DVGW-skrifterne "Wasser" nr. 105, Eschborn 1894, side 188 til 190 beskrives en fremgangsmåde til underjordisk rensning af nitratrigt grundvand ved blanding med renset spildvand eller med opløst naturgas. Ved 5 denne fremgangsmåde behandles nitratrigt grundvand med en vandblanding af biologisk renset og efterrenset spildvand og grundvand eller ved injektion in situ med grundvand, som over jorden er tilsat methanrigt naturgas. De i jorden henholdsvis i grundvandet forhåndenvæ-10 rende autotrofe og heterotrofe mikroorganismer reducerer nitrat til nitrogen og vand, de anvender oxygenet i nitratet til oxidation af hydrogen og carbon. Ganske vist sker der ved denne fremgangsmåde en nedbrydning af forhåndenværende nitrat, men ikke desto mindre indtræder 15 der efter kort tid en tilstoppelse af sivebrønden af den bakterieslim som blokerer siveproceseen. En tilstoppelse lader sig ikke uden videre fjerne, si i det lange løb er det ikke muligt ved denne fremgangsmåde at opnå en forstyrrelsesfri drift. Hertil kommer at apparatomkostnin-20 ger, til at bringe de gas formi ge reaktanter i opløsning i en flydende delstrøm under tryk og ved hjælp af en almindelig absorber, er forholdsmæssig høje. Også undersøgelser med anvendelse udelukkende af naturgas viser lignende resultater.2 DK 171819 B1 The DVGW writings "Wasser" No. 105, Eschborn 1894, pages 188 to 190 describe a method for underground purification of nitrate-rich groundwater by mixing with purified wastewater or with dissolved natural gas. In this process, nitrate-rich groundwater is treated with a water mixture of biologically purified and post-purified wastewater and groundwater or by injection in situ with groundwater to which methane-rich natural gas is added above ground. The autotrophic and heterotrophic microorganisms present in the soil and in the groundwater, respectively, reduce nitrate to nitrogen and water, they use the oxygen in the nitrate to oxidize hydrogen and carbon. Admittedly, in this process, degradation of the existing nitrate occurs, but nonetheless, after a short time, a clogging of the seepage well of the bacterial mucus which blocks the seeding process occurs. A blockage is not easily removed, since in the long run it is not possible in this method to achieve a disturbance-free operation. In addition, apparatus costs to dissolve the gaseous reactants in a liquid partial stream under pressure and by means of a conventional absorber are relatively high. Also studies using only natural gas show similar results.

25 Det er ved opfindelsen tilsigtet at tilvejebringe en fremgangsmåde og en indretning til kontinuerlig mikrobiologisk denitrifikation af grundvand ved hjælp af naturgas, især methan, med lave .apparatom kostninger og som fungerer i lange tidsrum, uden at der 30 opstår tilstoppelse i området omkring det grundvandsledende lag.It is an object of the invention to provide a method and apparatus for continuous microbiological denitrification of groundwater by means of natural gas, especially methane, with low apparatus costs and which operate for a long period of time without causing clogging in the area of the groundwater conductor. layer.

Det tilsigtede opnås ved at naturgassen tilføres grundvandet ovenstrøms i forhold til grundvandsudtaget.The intended purpose is achieved by supplying the natural gas to the groundwater upstream of the groundwater outlet.

Dette kan ske periodevist, for at spare naturgas eller 35 methan og samtidig begrænse den på selve stedet dannende biomasse. Denne biomasse fungerer som substrat for hete-rotrofe/organotrofe bakterier til nitratnedbrydningen.This can be done periodically, to save natural gas or 35 methane and at the same time limit the biomass forming on the spot. This biomass acts as a substrate for heat-rotrophic / organotrophic bacteria for the nitrate degradation.

DK 171819 Bl 3DK 171819 Pg 3

Ved forsøg har det overraskende vist sig, at tilførslen af naturgas eller methan forstærker den naturligt forløbende denitrifikation i grundvandet uden at det i området omkring tilførselstedet fører til tilstop-5 pelse med bakterieslimen. Den direkte tilførsel af naturgas i det grundvandsledende lag fører til meget lave driftsomkostninger i sammenligning med andre kendte fremgangsmåder, derudover fremkommer der ingen miljøbelastende reaktionsprodukter.By experiment, it has been surprisingly found that the supply of natural gas or methane enhances the naturally occurring denitrification in the groundwater without causing it to become clogged with the bacterial mucus in the area around the supply site. The direct supply of natural gas into the groundwater conducting layer leads to very low operating costs compared to other known methods, in addition no environmentally harmful reaction products are produced.

10 Virkningsmekanismen i grundvandet kan beskrives generelt ved de efterfølgende reaktionsligninger: CH4 + 2 02 = HC0~ + H+ + H20 15 5 CH4 + 8 N0“3 = 4 N2 + 5 HCO*"^ + 6 H20 + 3 0H“The mechanism of action in the groundwater can generally be described by the following reaction equations: CH4 + 202 = HC0 ~ + H + + H2O 15 5 CH4 + 8N0 "3 = 4 N2 + 5HCO *" + 6 H2O + 30H "

Fe2+ °2 +H2° Fe (OH), 20 I denne forbindelse skal der tages hensyn til, at de mikroorganismer, som står for nedbrydningen af nitrat er aerobier, som kun i et i Øvrigt anaerobt miljø udnytter nitrationens oxygen og derved benytter naturgassens methan som energikilde.Fe2 + ° 2 + H2 ° Fe (OH), 20 In this connection, it must be borne in mind that the microorganisms responsible for the degradation of nitrate are aerobics which utilize only the oxygen of the nitration in an otherwise anaerobic environment and thereby use the methane of the natural gas. as a source of energy.

25 Under denne reaktion stiger grundvandets pH, hvilket kan føre til uønsket kalkudfældning. Samtidig fremkommer i et uønsket stort omfang biomasse af mikroorganismerne, som står for nedbrydningen af nitrat. For at sænke pH og opnå en forskydning af bakteriestofskif-30 tet i retning af en undertrykkelse af bakterievæksten i området omkring tilførselsstedet, og dermed undgå tilstoppelse, tilføres grundvandet hensigtsmæssigt carbondioxidgas sammen med naturgassen. På denne måde opnås et bestemt redoxpotentiale såvel som undgåelse af uheldige 35 påvirkninger af det grundvandsledende lags kalk-kulsy-re-system.During this reaction, the pH of the groundwater rises, which can lead to unwanted lime precipitation. At the same time, biomass of the microorganisms, which accounts for the degradation of nitrate, appears to an undesirable extent. In order to lower the pH and obtain an offset of the bacterial change towards suppression of the bacterial growth in the area around the supply site, and thus avoid clogging, the groundwater is suitably supplied with carbon dioxide gas together with the natural gas. In this way, a certain redox potential as well as the avoidance of adverse effects on the groundwater conducting layer's carbon dioxide system are obtained.

Hvis oxygenindholdet i grundvandet er for lavt, kan oxygen tilføres grundvandet ovenstrøms i forhold til tilførselsstedet for naturgas og/eller nedenstrøms før grundvandsudtaget. På denne måde dannes der et 5 aerobt miljø ovenstrøms i forhold til det anaerobe miljø.If the oxygen content of the groundwater is too low, oxygen can be supplied to the groundwater upstream from the point of supply of natural gas and / or downstream before the groundwater withdrawal. In this way, an aerobic environment is created upstream of the anaerobic environment.

Oxygen og naturgas kan også tilføres adskilt på samme sted og blandes med hinanden ved tilførselsstedet i grundvandet.Oxygen and natural gas can also be supplied separately at the same site and mixed with each other at the point of application in the groundwater.

10 Ved den ifølge de ovenstående ligninger forløben de reaktion fremkommer der på grund af næringsstofudbudet en masseophobning af mikroorganismer, hvor det drejer sig om en biomasse. Grundelementerne i denne biomasse består overvejende af æggehvidestoffer. Biomassen 15 kan ganske vist kun udvikles tilfredsstillende, når der er et tilstrækkeligt antal phosphationer til rådighed for stofskriftet. Derfor kan man tilføre grundvandet en phosphatopløsning alene og/eller sammen med oxygen. Der kan desuden tilledes oxygengas ovenstrøms i forhold til 20 udtagsstedet, dvs. mellem tilførselsstedet for naturgas og udtaget, hvis der i indgangsfasen er et utilfredsstillende indhold af jern, mangan og nitrit.10 In the reaction according to the above equations, due to the supply of nutrients, a mass accumulation of microorganisms occurs, in which it is a biomass. The basic elements of this biomass are predominantly egg whites. Admittedly, biomass 15 can only be developed satisfactorily when there is a sufficient number of phosphate ions available for the drug. Therefore, groundwater can be added to a phosphate solution alone and / or together with oxygen. In addition, oxygen gas can be fed upstream from the outlet location, ie. between the point of supply of natural gas and the outlet if there is an unsatisfactory content of iron, manganese and nitrite in the initial phase.

Yderligere kan grundvandet tilføres en næringsopløsning af f.eks. phosphater, sporstoffer og vitaminer 25 alene eller i blanding med en eller flere gasser, for på denne måde at sikre et optimalt CsNjP-forhold. Fortrinsvis indstilles, henholdsvis holdes C:N:P-forholdet på 100:10:1. I forbindelse hermed indstilles carbonkon-centrationen ved hjælp af naturgas og/eller carbondioxid 30 samt ved hjælp af opløst biomasse, og phosphorkoncentra-tionen indstilles ved hjælp af næringsopløsningen eller phosphat, medens nitrogenkoncentrationen på forhånd er bestemt af grundvandets nitratindhold.Further, the groundwater can be fed with a nutrient solution of e.g. phosphates, trace elements and vitamins alone or in admixture with one or more gases, in this way to ensure an optimal CsNjP ratio. Preferably, the C: N: P ratio is maintained at 100: 10: 1, respectively. In connection with this, the carbon concentration is adjusted by means of natural gas and / or carbon dioxide 30 as well as by dissolved biomass and the phosphorus concentration is adjusted by the nutrient solution or phosphate, while the nitrogen concentration is predetermined by the groundwater nitrate content.

En indretning til gennemførsel af fremgangsmåden 35 ifølge opfindelsen omfatter et gasspyd med en gastæt, trykbestandig kappe og gastilslutning. Dette gasspyd kan DK 171819 B1 5 på en hvilken som helst måde indføres i det grundvandsledende lag i jorden og muliggør tilførsel af naturgas, carbondioxid og oxygen samt eventuelt phosphatopløsning under det nødvendige tryk. Afstanden mellem gasspydet og 5 udtagelsesbrønden svarer til en opholdstid for grundvandet i den ved fremgangsmåden tilvejebragte bioreaktor på mindst 4,5 timer.A device for carrying out the method 35 according to the invention comprises a gas spigot with a gas-tight, pressure-resistant jacket and gas connection. This gas sputum can in any way be introduced into the groundwater conducting layer in the soil and allows the supply of natural gas, carbon dioxide and oxygen as well as possible phosphate solution under the required pressure. The distance between the gas spike and the take-out well corresponds to a residence time of groundwater in the bioreactor provided by the process of at least 4.5 hours.

For at muliggøre en boblefri tilledning af gas i grundvandet, kan man på gasspydets udgangsåbning anbrin-10 ge et membranfilter, fortrinsvis en sintermetalplade.In order to enable a bubble-free supply of gas into the groundwater, a membrane filter, preferably a sinter metal plate, may be applied to the outlet opening of the gas skewer.

Opfindelsen belyses nærmere ved hjælp af tegningen.The invention is further illustrated by means of the drawings.

På denne viser: fig. 1 en indretning med to tilførselsbrønde 15 og fig. 2 en indretning til områdedækkende til førsel af gas og opløsninger.In this FIG. 1 shows a device with two supply wells 15 and FIG. 2 shows an area-wide device for conveying gas and solutions.

I et grundvands ledende lag 12 stikker en kon-trolniveaumåler 1 op i området omkring en tilføreels-20 brønd 2 til oxygen og eventuelt til phosphatopløsning, samt yderligere en tilførselsbrønd 6 til methan og carbondioxid, samt endnu en kontrolniveaumåler 11 i området omkring en udtagelsesbrønd 9. Grundvandsstrømningsretningen svarer til retningen af en pil 14 25 fra kontrolniveaumåleren 1 til udtagelsesbrønden 9. Tilførselsbrøndene 2 og 6 er afbildet som gasspyd, hvis ender, som stikker ned i det grundvands ledende lag 12, er forsynet med et membranfilter i form af en sintermetalplade 3.In a groundwater conducting layer 12, a control level meter 1 projects into the area around a supply well 2 for oxygen and optionally for phosphate solution, as well as an additional supply well 6 for methane and carbon dioxide, and a further control level meter 11 in the area around a take-out well 9. The groundwater flow direction corresponds to the direction of an arrow 14 25 from the control level gauge 1 to the take-out well 9. The supply wells 2 and 6 are depicted as gas skewers, whose ends protruding into the groundwater conductive layer 12 are provided with a membrane filter in the form of a sinter metal plate 3. .

30 Enderne af tilførselsbrøndene 2, 6, 15, som rager op over jordoverfladen, er lukket med en gastæt, trykbestandig kappe 4, som viser tilslutningerne for de tilledende gasser og (ikke vist her) til phosphat-opløsningen. Tilførselsbrøndene 2 og 15 er forbundet 35 med en oxygenbeholder via det armatur, som er nødvendigt for at tilføre oxygen til det grundvandsledende lag un- DK 171819 B1 6 der det fornødne tryk og i den fornødne mængde. På samme måde er tilførselsbrønden 6 forbundet med en methanbe-holder 7 og en carbondioxidbeholder 8.The ends of the supply wells 2, 6, 15, which protrude above the soil surface, are closed with a gas-tight, pressure-resistant jacket 4, which shows the connections for the supply gases and (not shown here) to the phosphate solution. The supply wells 2 and 15 are connected to an oxygen container via the luminaire necessary to supply oxygen to the groundwater conducting layer under the required pressure and in the required quantity. Similarly, the feed well 6 is connected to a methane container 7 and a carbon dioxide container 8.

I udtagelsesbrønden 9 er anbragt en pumpe 10, 5 som pumper det nitratfrie eller nitratreducerede grundvand op og fører det frem via en vandledning 13.A pump 10, 5 is arranged in the take-out well 9, which pumps up the nitrate-free or nitrate-reduced groundwater and feeds it via a water line 13.

Tilførselsbrønden 2 til oxygen er placeret ovenstrøms i forhold til tilførselsbrønden 6 for me-than og carbondioxid, og denne er igen placeret oven-10 strøms i forhold til udtagelsesbrønden 9.The oxygen supply well 2 is located upstream of the methane and carbon dioxide supply well 6, and this is again located upstream of the extraction well 9.

Mellem udtagelsesbrønden 9 og tilførselsbrøndene 2 og 6, danner der sig så at sige en underjordisk bioreaktor, hvor grundvandet strømmer horisontalt i pilen 14's retning.Between the take-off well 9 and the supply wells 2 and 6, so-called an underground bioreactor is formed, where the groundwater flows horizontally in the direction of arrow 14.

15 Det ved tilsætning af oxygen, naturgas, carbon dioxid og eventuelt phosphatopløsning og efter denitri-fikationsforløbet påny med oxygen konditionerede grundvand transporterer samtidig indenfor bioreaktoren selv de nærings- og puf fer stof fer, som er nødvendige for den 20 indenfor reaktionsstrækningen i det grundvandsledende lag forløbende omsætning af nitrat til nitrogen og vand.15 The addition of oxygen, natural gas, carbon dioxide and possibly phosphate solution and after the denitrification process again with oxygen conditioned groundwater simultaneously transports within the bioreactor even the nutrients and buffers necessary for the reaction within the groundwater conducting layer. progressive conversion of nitrate to nitrogen and water.

Herved opstår én i sig selv mikrobiologisk aktiv specifik virksom, underjordisk bioreaktor, hvor overspuling ved tilførselsbrøndene 2 og 6 ikke er nødvendigt 25 efter et periodisk vandudtag. Der er desuden ikke behov for efterrensning af det fra udtagelsesbrønden 9 førte grundvand, til fjernelse af reaktionsslutprodukterne fra denitrifikationen.This results in one microbiologically active, specific underground bioreactor in itself, where flushing at supply wells 2 and 6 is not necessary after a periodic water withdrawal. In addition, there is no need for post-purification of the groundwater from the take-off well 9 to remove the reaction end products from denitrification.

Til overvågelse af denitrifikationen, behøver man 30 kun at undersøge og kontrollere det, der påvirker systemet, såsom grundvandets vandtemperatur, dets vandkvalitet, strømningshastighed og strømningsretning, samt det grundvandsledende lag's biologiske opbygning. Endvidere er det nødvendigt at bestemme tilførselsstofferne og re-35 aktionsprodukterne. Således skal pH-værdi, total hårdhed, syre- og basekapacitet, nitrat-, nitrit-, jern-, DK 171819 B1 7 mangan- og oxygenindholdet samt kimtallet kontrolleres før og efter behandlingen.In order to monitor denitrification, one only needs to investigate and control what affects the system, such as the groundwater water temperature, its water quality, flow rate and flow direction, and the biological structure of the groundwater conducting layer. Furthermore, it is necessary to determine the feedstock and reaction products. Thus, the pH value, total hardness, acid and base capacity, nitrate, nitrite, iron, manganese and oxygen content as well as the number of germs must be checked before and after treatment.

For at forsyne grundvandet i et større område med reaktanterne, anbringes mange tilførselsbrønde eller 5 spyd 16 til tilførsel af en blanding af gas, næringsopløsning og vand, f.eks. 5 til 30, med afstand fra hinanden. Hvert spyd 16 er tillige, via hver sin særlig pneumatisk eller elektrisk styrede doseringsventil 17, tilsluttet et blandingsrør 18, der via tillednin-10 gerne 19, 20, 21 forsynes med gas, næringsopløsning eller vand. De enkelte doseringsventiler betjenes ved hjælp af en styreenhed 22 og styreledningerne 23.In order to supply the groundwater in a larger area with the reactants, many supply wells or spears 16 are applied to supply a mixture of gas, nutrient solution and water, e.g. 5 to 30, spaced apart. Each spear 16 is also connected, via its own pneumatically or electrically controlled metering valve 17, to a mixing tube 18 which is supplied with gas, nutrient solution or water via the connections 10, 19, 20, 21. The individual metering valves are operated by a control unit 22 and the control lines 23.

I blandingsrøret 18 kan man indstille forskellige blandingsforhold ved dosering af reaktanterne. Gasserne 15 tilføres blandingsrøret 18 via ledningen 19 som blanding eller via ikke viste enkeltledninger. Da naturgas, carbondioxid og oxygen ikke kan tilføres sammen, fordi dette kan føre til en eksplosion, kan der kun føres enten naturgas og carbondioxid eller oxygen via 20 gasledningen 19 til blandingsrøret 18. For tilførsel af oxygen er det derfor altid nødvendigt med en separat indretning af den i fig. 2 viste art.In mixing tube 18, different mixing ratios can be set by dosing the reactants. The gases 15 are supplied to the mixing tube 18 via the conduit 19 as a mixture or via single conduits not shown. Since natural gas, carbon dioxide and oxygen cannot be supplied together because this can lead to an explosion, only either natural gas and carbon dioxide or oxygen can be fed through the gas line 19 to the mixing pipe 18. Therefore, a separate device is required to supply oxygen. of the one shown in FIG. 2 art.

De enkelte spyd 16 kan ensartet eller enkeltvis eventuelt efter hinanden, tilføres lige store reaktant-25 mængder pr tidsenhed.The individual skewers 16 can be supplied uniformly or individually, one after the other, with equal reactant quantities per unit time.

Det er således muligt ved fremgangsmåden ifølge opfindelsen at frembringe en i grundvandsstrømmen værende bioreaktor med enkle midler, hvor tilbageskylning ved periodisk vandudtag ved tilførselsstedet ikke er nødven-30 digt. . Det er desuden særlig fordelagtigt, at det fra udtagelsesbrønden førte grundvand ikke kræver efterrens-ning, for at fjerne eventuelle reaktionsprodukter fra denitrifikationen.Thus, it is possible in the process of the invention to produce a simple reactive bioreactor in the groundwater stream, where backwash at periodic water withdrawal at the point of supply is not necessary. . In addition, it is particularly advantageous that the groundwater flowing from the sampling well does not require post-purification to remove any reaction products from denitrification.
