Abstract:
In order to promote sludge hydrolysis and improve the efficiency of aerobic digestion, the sodium alginate immobilized gel spheres pellet B (SIP B) were prepared using sodium alginate (SA) and sinter as carrier to immobilize lysozyme producing strain SJ25. The optimal conditions for SIP B to promote sludge hydrolysis were 5.6 mg SS-1 dosage and pH of 9.0. Under the optimal condition compared with the control group, the reduction efficiency of suspended solids (SS) in 24 h was increased by 26.89 %, the release of soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD) was increased by 517.79 mg L-1, polysaccharide (PS) and protein (PN) concentrations were increased by 186.69 and 368.68 mg L-1, respectively. SIP B enhanced the degradation efficiency of sludge by promote the release of lysozyme, prolonging the action time of the enzyme, enhancing the metabolism and membrane transport of xenobiotics, carbohydrate and amino.
