Mechanism Study and Conditions Optimization of Microelectric Field Coupled Microbial Remediation of Acidic Wastewater from In-situ Leaching Uranium Mining
摘要
Abstract
Acidic wastewater generated by in-situ leaching uranium poses a serious threat to the groundwater environment.Aiming at the problems of long microbial remediation cycle,low survival rate and insufficient stability of electrokinetic remediation,a remediation method of microelectric field-coupled sulfate-reducing bacteria(SRB)was proposed.Through simulated wastewater remediation experiments,a three-chamber electrochemical device was constructed to explore the remediation mech-anism and optimize the key parameters by combining the electromigration effect with the reduction function of SRB.The results show that the coupled remediation system significantly enhanced the ura-nium(Ⅵ)removal rate(more than 98%),and effectively reduced the concentrations of Ca,Mg,Al,Fe and other metal ions(removal rate>80%)and sulfate content(removal rate>90%).Under the influence of an electric field,uranyl ions migrate to the cathode region,where they are predominantly reduced by S2-generated through the metabolic activity of sulfate-reducing bacteria(SRB)and subse-quently co-precipitated.A minor fraction is reduced to U(Ⅵ)via electrode reactions.Experiments show that the different potential gradients can lead to different pH in the cathode chamber,which af-fects the remediation effect,with H+leading to the escape of S2-under acidic conditions(pH<4)and the formation of soluble uranium complexes easily under alkaline conditions(pH>9);with a potential gradient of 0.2~0.4 V/cm,the balancing remediation efficiency,microbial activity and energy econo-my.This study provides a theoretical basis and technical support for the green and efficient remedia-tion of acidic wastewater from uranium extraction by in-situ leaching technology.关键词
