Abstract:Based on the resource attribute of waste activated sludge (WAS), A novel electro-fermentation (EF) system mediated by iron anode was constructed to investigate the effect of NaCl concentration (10mmol/L, 30mmol/L and 60mmol/L) on synchronous hydrogen and vivianite recovery from simulative sludge fermentation liquid. Results showed that hydrogen yield peaked at (387.8±14.2) mL under 10mmol/L, promoted by 23.5% and 286.6% compared with that of 30mmol/L (312.2±18.6) mL and 60mmol/L (100.3±10.4) mL. The corresponding utilizing efficiency of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) reached 81.2%, which was much higher than that obtained in other groups. Soluble phosphate was completely removed within 3d in each group, Fe2+ content was reduced with NaCl concentration increase, accounted for 77.6% in 10mmol/L group. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed that the recovered precipitate was vivianite, and the crystallinity was negatively related with NaCl concentration. Meanwhile, the charge-discharge property of biofilm was promoted by the low electrolyte concentration, the dominating microbial consortia attached to the bio-cathode in 10mmol/L group, i.e., electrochemically active bacteria (EAB), anaerobic fermentation bacteria (AFB) and dissimilatory iron reducing bacteria (DIRB, e.g, Bacteroides, Pseudomonas and Sphingomonas), accounting for 22.10%, 42.37% and 9.17%, respectively.
