铁镍离子组合对褐煤发酵产甲烷的影响

Effects of iron-nickel ion combination on methane produced by lignite fermentation

为研究外源最佳铁镍离子组合对煤发酵产气过程的影响机理,以陕北大柳塔褐煤为例,对不同含量的铁镍离子分别进行煤发酵实验,优选出单一离子的最佳含量,进一步通过二元二次旋转组合设计法确定铁镍离子的最优组合,利用气相色谱、X射线衍射仪、傅里叶红外线光谱分析仪等手段对添加最优组合质量浓度的实验组和空白组(不添加两种离子)产气过程的发酵液及反应前后的煤样进行对比分析。结果表明:Fe2+、Ni2+的最佳质量浓度分别为15mg/L、0.005mg/L,Ni2+的添加存在明显的低促高抑现象;添加最优Fe2+和Ni2+组合的产气量相较于添加单一Fe2+、Ni2+分别增加了13.64%和20.69%;实验组的pH值、挥发性脂肪酸含量VFA及OD600相较于空白组的变化均提前3 d达到峰值,且煤的大分子结构得到更加充分的降解。最后分析了铁镍离子组合对产甲烷过程的影响,阐明了两种微量元素对于促进煤发酵产甲烷的内在机理,研究成果为提高次生生物成因气的产量及产气效率打下了理论基础。

In order to study the mechanism of the influence of exogenous optimal iron-nickel ions combination on the gas production process of fermentation, taking Daliuta lignite as an example, experiments were carried out with different contents of iron-nickel ions and the optimal concentration of single ions was elected. The optimal combination concentration of iron-nickel ions were determined by combined design of quadratic regression and common rotation. The fermentation broth of experiment group and blank group(not to added any ions), the coal sample of before and after experiment were analyzed by gas chromatography, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, etc. The results showed that the optimum concentrations of Fe2+ and Ni2+ were 15 mg/L and 0.005 mg/L, respectively, and the addition of Ni2+ showed an obvious trend of promotion at low concentration and suppression at high concentration. The gas production of experiment group increased by 13.64% and 20.69%, respectively, compared with blank group. The peak time of pH, VFA and OD600 of experiment group was ahead of 3 d, and the macromolecular structure of the coal was more fully degraded. Finally, the effect of iron-nickel ions combination on methanogenic process was analyzed and the internal mechanism of iron-nickel ions in promoted methane production by coal fermentation was clarified, which laid a theoretical foundation for improving the yield and efficiency of secondary biogenic gas.
