Abstract:In order to reduce the pollution of organic matter in rural domestic sewage to river water body, the coupling processes of traditional plant floating bed, iron-carbon micro-electrolysis and conventional biological fillers were used to study its treating effect towards the first-grade effluent of existing rural sewage treatment. The coupling process took physical and chemical reactions, biological reactions and chemical reactions as symbiotic relationships, which can establish an artificial ecosystem to reduce the pollution load in water. The results showed that the removal rates of COD, TP, ${\rm{NH}}_4^ + $-N and TN by the microbial coupling iron-carbon micro-electrolysis-enhanced floating bed enhanced could reach 78.6%, 78.2%, 72.2% and 73.3%, respectively in winter. In summer, the removal rates could reach 88.8%, 75.6%, 78.1% and 80%, respectively. The COD degradation rates by the coupled enhanced floating bed in winter and summer reached 2.933 mg·(L·d)?1 and 3.529 mg·(L·d)?1, respectively. The TP degradation rates were 0.055 mg·(L·d)?1 and 0.061 mg·(L·d)?1, respectively. The ${\rm{NH}}_4^ + $-N degradation rates were 0.583 mg·(L·d)?1 and 0.8 mg·(L·d)?1, respectively. The TN degradation rates were 0.73 mg·(L·d)?1 and 1.114 mg·(L·d)?1, respectively. They were better than the treating effects of the traditional plant floating bed or microorganism enhancing floating bed. In addition, microbial-coupled iron-carbon micro-electrolysis-enhanced floating bed had a significantly stronger growth-promoting performance on plants than traditional floating bed and micro-enhanced floating bed. In winter, the plant weight gain before and after the experiment was 23.3 g, and in summer was 67.4 g. The microbial activity in the coupled floating bed was 1.81 and 1.45 times that in the microbal-enhanced floating bed. Finally, the correlation analysis and principal component analysis of the factors were used to further indicate that the synergistic effect of micro-electrolysis of iron and carbon promoted the increase of the number and activity of microorganisms, and thus had an important influence on the removal effect of pollutants. This study provides strong technical support for the advanced treatment of rural domestic sewage, and has great significance for improving the status quo of rural sewage treatment. Key words:plant floating bed/ microorganism/ iron carbon micro electrolysis/ microorganism coupling iron carbon micro electrolysis.
