まな課題を有している。2. Description of the Related Art Wastewater containing a high concentration of ammonia is
It is generated from steelworks coke factories, human waste, fertilizer factories, semiconductor factories, leather factories, etc. For example, ammonia-containing wastewater generated from a coke plant of an ironworks is referred to as low-temperature water and contains several hundred to several thousand mg / l of ammonia nitrogen. These effluents have a concentration of ammonia nitrogen that is lower than that of city sewage (several tens of mg / l) or farm effluent (several mg / l)
This is extremely high compared to the conventional technology, and the conventional technology has various problems in processing.
【0003】従来のアンモニア性窒素の除去方法として
は、以下のようなプロセスが広く知見されている。[0003] As a conventional method for removing ammoniacal nitrogen, the following process is widely known.

垂らし、空気によりアンモニアイオンをアンモニアガス
として空気中に飛散させる。First, (1) the ammonia stripping method will be described. This adjusts the pH of the wastewater to 10.5-1.
It is adjusted to 1.5, water is dropped from a tower similar to the cooling tower, and ammonia ions are scattered into the air as ammonia gas by air.
【0006】NH4 + → NH3 ↑ + H+ NH 4 + → NH 3 ++ H +

し、窒素ガスとなる。Next, the (2) break point (discontinuous point) chlorine injection method will be described. As chlorine is added to wastewater containing ammoniacal nitrogen, the amount of residual chlorine initially increases, but then begins to decrease and then increases again. This minimum point is called a breakpoint, and a method of injecting chlorine until reaching this point is the breakpoint chlorine injection method. Chlorine and ammoniacal nitrogen react as follows to form nitrogen gas.

In order to oxidize l, Cl 2 is theoretically 7.6 mg / l
Necessary (for example, Kenji Fujita, Seminar on Sewer Engineering, Academic Cooperation). Therefore, it is almost impossible in terms of running cost to apply the method to wastewater containing a large amount of ammonia nitrogen. Further, since chlorine is usually added in excess, it is necessary to treat residual chlorine.

When the ion exchange resin is regenerated, ammonia nitrogen is generated again. It is practically difficult to apply to wastewater treatment containing a large amount.

から成っている。Finally, (4) biological nitrification-denitrification method will be described. The biological nitrification-denitrification method is based on the combination of biological oxidation by aerobic autotrophic bacteria (nitrifying bacteria such as Nitrozomonas and Nitrobactor) and biological reduction by facultative anaerobic heterotrophic bacteria (such as Pseudomonas). Made up of
【0013】まず、硝化工程は以下の2段の反応から成

ではメタノールがよく用いられる。A facultative anaerobic heterotrophic bacterium requires a hydrogen donor and utilizes an organic substance. In municipal sewage, organic matter in sewage is used as it is, and in wastewater containing no organic matter, methanol is often used.

ア性窒素濃度が100mg/l以下では問題が少なく、
また、最も安価で安定した処理方法である。This biological nitrification-denitrification method has few problems when the concentration of ammonia nitrogen is 100 mg / l or less.
Moreover, it is the cheapest and stable processing method.

る。However, the biological nitrification-denitrification method has an ammonia nitrogen concentration of 100 mg / l.
When the number exceeds, various problems occur, and stable processing becomes difficult.

When the amount exceeds mg / l, it has been found that in the nitrification step, the oxidation of ammonia nitrogen does not proceed to nitrate nitrogen, that is, the nitrobacter is inhibited and nitrite nitrogen in the treated water tends to accumulate. I have. As a cause of this, inhibition of free ammonium ions on nitrobacter is known. In particular, when the pH is high, free ammonium ions are generated.
【0024】この結果、以下の(1)、(2)の障害が
生ずる。As a result, the following faults (1) and (2) occur.
【0025】(1)亜硝酸性窒素は、従属栄養細菌に対

る。From the above, when the ammonia nitrogen concentration exceeds 100 mg / l, the nitrification step becomes extremely important. For this reason, it is required to dilute, to reduce the load by prolonging the treatment time, or to perform strict management of pH (around 7). However, stabilization of the process is difficult and often results in the accumulation of nitrite nitrogen.

を発明した。BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The present inventors have considered that it is extremely difficult to control the nitrification reaction in the biological nitrification step of wastewater containing a high concentration of ammonia, and have invented the following two methods.

Reduced to nitrogen gas by bacteria.

窒素作用が知られていたが、ほとんど実際には用いられ
ていない。Autotrophic bacteria such as hydrogen bacteria and sulfur oxidizing bacteria are microorganisms that synthesize and proliferate cells from the energy generated when hydrogen and reducing sulfur compounds are oxidized, respectively, and carbon dioxide gas in the air. These bacteria have been known to have a denitrifying effect because of their low growth rate and weak floc-forming ability, but they are hardly actually used.

下)。The inventors have found that these autotrophic bacteria have extremely strong resistance to nitrite nitrogen as compared to heterotrophic bacteria. That is, no reduction in the denitrification rate was observed when the nitrite nitrogen concentration was in the range of 2000 mg / l or less (pH: 6 to 8; water temperature: 20 ° C.).

イオンまで生物酸化してもかまわない。In particular, among the autotrophic bacteria, the sulfur-oxidizing bacteria have a self-granulating effect, so that it is easy to increase the concentration and the treatment efficiency in the reactor, and to use the independent oxidizing bacteria in the present method. It is optimal as a vegetative bacterium. Furthermore, sulfur compounds such as thiosulfuric acid necessary for sulfur-oxidizing bacteria to obtain energy are easily oxidized to sulfate ions by ultraviolet rays, ozone, hydrogen peroxide, etc., even if they remain in excess. Of course, the remaining sulfur compounds may be biologically oxidized to sulfate ions using aerobic sulfur oxidizing bacteria.

安定処理が可能となることを見いだした。Next, a method of oxidizing nitrite nitrogen generated from the nitrification step to nitric acid by ultraviolet rays and reducing it to nitrogen gas by heterotrophic bacteria or autotrophic bacteria will be described. The present inventors have found that ultraviolet light has no residual property and has excellent nitrite nitrogen oxidizing power, and it has been conventionally difficult to carry out the biological nitrification-ultraviolet light oxidation-biological denitrification method. It has been found that stable treatment of wastewater containing a high concentration of ammonia is possible.

る。It is widely known that nitrite nitrogen is oxidized to nitrate nitrogen by ozone, hydrogen peroxide, chlorine and the like. However, drugs such as hydrogen peroxide and chlorine
Due to the persistence, the subsequent biological treatment adversely affects the activity. Ozone quickly becomes oxygen, but if there is an anaerobic biological treatment at a later stage, the oxygen may have an effect.

酸性窒素が処理水に残留することになる。In addition, even if denitrification is performed using the above-described autotrophic bacteria resistant to nitrite nitrogen, inhibition occurs when nitrite nitrogen is accumulated at 2000 mg / l or more, and nitrite nitrogen is reduced. It will remain in the treated water.

生物学的脱窒に好影響を及ぼす。Therefore, in such a case, it is desirable to incorporate a step of rapidly oxidizing nitrite nitrogen to nitrate nitrogen by ultraviolet rays at a stage subsequent to the biological nitrification tank.
As a result, nitrite nitrogen is reduced and has a favorable effect on biological nitrification and biological denitrification.

The nitrification tank 1 controls the pH to 7 to 8 with sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide, and controls DO at 2 mg / l with air and / or oxygen.

である。Example 2 Application to human waste treatment activated sludge treated water The application of the method of the present invention to human waste treatment was examined. In the conventional standard denitrification method, after collecting collected manure is diluted about 10 to 20 times, it is treated with activated sludge to remove organic substances (BOD). In the case where nitrogen removal is also performed, a recirculating nitrification-denitrification method is often employed (the nitrification solution is circulated to a denitrification tank and denitrification is performed using organic matter in wastewater. Flow). However, when performing nitrogen removal, nitrite nitrogen accumulation tends to occur, and the nitrogen removal efficiency tends to decrease. For this reason, the dilution ratio becomes large, and the facility becomes large. The quality of collected human waste is BO
