The invention provides a method of synchronously degrading excess
sludge and treating
hexavalent chromium wastewater, and relates to a method of recycling the excess
sludge and treating the
chromium-containing
wastewater. The invention aims to solve the problem that the current treatment cost for treating excess pollutants is high by utilizing microbial
fuel cells. The method comprises the steps of 1, setting up a double-
cell-structure reactor; 2, adding the excess
sludge and
nutrient solutions into an
anode chamber of the reactor, adding
potassium ferricyanidecatholyte into a
cathode chamber, and performing cultivation, wherein when the
voltage output is greater than 0.6 V, starting is successful; 3, adding the excess sludge and the
nutrient solutions to be treated into the
anode chamber, adding the
hexavalent chromium wastewater to be treated into the
cathode chamber, and performing treatment, wherein a
treatment period of the excess sludge is 40 to 50 days, the degradation rate of the excess sludge can reach 38 percent to 62 percent, a reduction period of the
hexavalent chromium wastewater is 2 to 10 days, the degradation rate of hexavalent
chromium can reach 66.4 percent to 93.2 percent, and the purpose of synchronously degrading the excess sludge and treating the hexavalent
chromium wastewater is realized.
