The invention relates to the technical field of electrochemical reduction of nitrate nitrogen, in particular to an electrochemical reduction device and an electrochemical reduction method for high-nitrate nitrogen wastewater.
Background
When the nitrogen content of the water body exceeds an environmental threshold (TN is more than 0.2 mg/L), blue algae burst in a large amount, so that the water body is eutrophicated. The drinking water with high nitrate nitrogen threatens human health, and induces a plurality of diseases such as blue infant syndrome, infant hemorrhagic erythrosinesis, adult gastric cancer, methemoglobin and the like. Excessive nitrate nitrogen in the water body can also induce poisoning symptoms such as rapid breathing, middle wind and the like of livestock.
Biological nitrification/denitrification processes are most widely used as traditional denitrification techniques, wherein the nitrification is energy intensive, and the subsequent denitrification often requires an external organic carbon source to completely reduce the nitrate nitrogen. The removal of nitrate nitrogen requires a suitable carbon to nitrogen ratio (C/N) of 2.7 to 3. For low C/N ratio wastewater, the need for additional organic carbon addition results in a dramatic increase in cost.
The anaerobic ammonia oxidation denitrification technology is a novel energy-saving and consumption-reducing sewage biological treatment technology, and autotrophic denitrification is realized by oxidizing ammonia nitrogen by nitrite nitrogen. The denitrification technology based on anaerobic ammonia oxidation is paid attention to because of the advantages of no need of additional carbon source, low sludge yield, low energy consumption, low cost, high denitrification rate, no greenhouse gas emission and the like.
The electrochemical nitrogen reduction method is a nitrate nitrogen reduction method with high catalytic efficiency, strong flexibility and high selectivity, and uses electrons provided by a power supply (serving as a green reducing agent) to selectively reduce nitrate nitrogen into ammonia nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, nitrogen and the like.

Times.6 cm) substrate was replaced with 100 mesh 304 stainless steel mesh (4 cm. Times.6 cm) substrate at 0.5M CuSO 4 、pH<2, applying-2V voltage by an electrochemical workstation and depositing for 30 minutes at 400 rpm; the material was weighted from the initial 1.1231g to 2.4653g.
