مخلوط کردن سدیم زباله های زباله از طریق آمونیاک / نیترات راکتور سوخت سلول های سرکوب شده

In order to explore the feasibility of energy-free denitrifying N-rich wastewater, a self-powered device was uniquely assembled, in which ammonia/nitrate coupled redox fuel cell (CRFC) reactor was served as removing nitrogen and harvesting electric energy simultaneously. Ammonia is oxidized at anodic compartment and nitrate is reduced at cathodic compartment spontaneously by electrocatalysis. In 7.14 mM ammonia + 0.2 M KOH anolyte and 4.29 mM KNO3 + 0.1 M H2SO4 catholyte, the nitrate removal efficiency was 46.9% after 18 h. Meanwhile, a maximum power density of 170 mW m−2 was achieved when applying Pd/C cathode. When NH4Cl/nitrate and ammonia/nitrite CRFCs were tested, 26.2% N–NH4Cl and 91.4% N–NO2− were removed respectively. Nitrogen removal efficiency for real leachate at the same initial NH3–N concentration is 22.9% and nitrification of ammonia in leachate can be used as nitrate source. This work demonstrated a new way for N-rich wastewater remediation with electricity generation.
