2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to biologically anaerobicly digest organic matter in sludge, the first settling sludge and surplus sludge generated from an activated sludge treatment plant have been concentrated before biologically anaerobic digestion. The digested sludge that has been treated, further concentrated and settled, is then dehydrated and incinerated before being disposed of in landfills. The supernatant water separated by settling is returned to the existing water treatment facility for new treatment. The problem with such a treatment process is that the decomposition rate of organic matter is about 50%, and sufficient digestion treatment is not performed. The clear water is
Due to the high concentration of water quality, there is concern that the load will increase when it is returned to the existing water treatment facility. In addition, since a large amount of energy is consumed for heating the sludge digestion tank and incinerating the dehydrated cake, a more efficient sludge reduction method is desired.

FIG. 1 generally comprises a primary anaerobic digestion tank 1, an ultrafiltration membrane device 3, a sludge circulation pump 4, and a secondary anaerobic digestion tank 2. A sludge inflow pipe 21 is provided in the anaerobic digestion layer 1, and the digested sludge in the anaerobic digestion tank is transferred to the ultrafiltration membrane device 3 by the sludge circulation pump 4.
Here, the digested sludge is filtered and separated into concentrated digested sludge and permeate. The concentrated digested sludge is returned to the primary anaerobic digestion tank 1. The ultrafiltration membrane device 3 employs a method of sucking or pressurizing the membrane surface as a separating means.
It is sucked at 0 Torr and the permeated water 23 is returned to the existing activated sludge treatment plant. When pressurizing, the permeated water suction pump 5

Operate with. In either method, it is necessary to increase the flow rate of the sludge circulation pump 4 and increase the membrane surface velocity of the ultrafiltration membrane device 3 to 1 to 3 m / s to prevent clogging of the membrane surface. In order to keep the digested sludge concentration in the anaerobic digestion tank 1 constant, the sludge extraction pump 6 periodically discharges it. The amount of digested sludge to be discharged is 1/100 to 1/200 of the anaerobic digester tank capacity per day.
It is desirable to operate at a pulling ratio of. Anaerobic digester 1
A stirrer is installed to make the digested sludge concentration of the plant uniform. Next, the excess digested sludge generated in the primary anaerobic digester is introduced into the secondary anaerobic digester, and oxygen-free gas is blown into it once a day to replace the gas layer in the upper part of the sludge. A mixed gas of 80% nitrogen gas and 20% carbon dioxide gas was used as the oxygen-free gas. The digested sludge 22 is introduced into the dehydrator.

In the present invention, a polysulfone membrane having a molecular weight cut-off of 750,000 is connected as an ultrafiltration membrane of the ultrafiltration membrane device 3 to an anaerobic digestion tank 1 having a capacity of 100 liters, and sewage having a sludge concentration of 1.8% is supplied. Excess sludge from the activated sludge treatment plant was used. Both primary and secondary anaerobic digesters had a digestion period of 15 days, and the temperature and sludge extraction ratio were 35 ° C and 1/100, respectively.
I drove under the conditions. FIG. 3 shows the results of the decomposition rate of organic matter with respect to the sludge extraction ratio of the method of the present invention. The total organic matter decomposition rate (indicated by line A in the figure) and the gas layer in the secondary anaerobic digester at 30 days in the primary and secondary anaerobic digester were replaced with nitrogen gas. The total organic matter decomposition rate (indicated by line B in the figure) is shown. The digestion efficiency is obviously better than the conventional anaerobic digestion rate of about 50% of organic matter. Also, if the sludge extraction ratio is less than 1/100, it does not change,
Equilibrium was approximately 75%. This is considered to be an equilibrium state when anaerobic microorganisms such as methanogenic bacteria, hydrogen-utilizing bacteria, and sulfate-reducing bacteria exist in a wide variety of symbiotic systems. Methane gas and carbon dioxide gas are the main components of the gas layer in the digestion tank, but they contain trace amounts of nitrogen and hydrogen, and the activity of anaerobic microorganisms was changed by changing the partial pressure of these gases. It is considered to be a thing.

However, the operating amount is not limited to this range, and the withdrawing amount is 1/100 or less. May be. Even in this case, although the decomposition rate of organic matter will decrease, more results than before can be expected.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce the amount of sludge more than before by simply adding an ultrafiltration membrane to the existing sludge digestion facility and replacing the gas without constructing a new digestion facility. The load on the dehydration equipment is reduced. Moreover, it is easy to secure a heat source because most of the organic substances are converted to methane gas.
