The reaction vessel 14 is divided into an anode chamber 2 and a cathode chamber 4 by an ion exchange membrane 3; the photocatalytic anode 6 is placed in the anode chamber 2, and the biocathode 7 is placed in the cathode chamber 4. The present invention uses the ion exchange membrane 3 to separate the photocatalytic reaction of the anode chamber 2 from the biological reaction of the cathode chamber 4 to ensure that the biological reaction of the cathode chamber 4 is not affected by the photocatalytic reaction of the anode chamber 2 . The present invention can inoculate aerobic sludge in the cathode chamber 4, so that the cathode chamber 4 is an aerobic environment. The anode chamber 2 is provided with an anode chamber water inlet 1 and an anode chamber water outlet 9 , and the cathode chamber 4 is provided with a cathode chamber water inlet 10 , a cathode chamber water outlet 5 and a cathode chamber gas outlet 13 . The water outlet 9 of the anode chamber communicates with the water inlet 10 of the cathode chamber through a conduit 17 . An external resistor 8 is connected in series between the photocatalytic anode 6 and the biocathode 7 .

本发明在阳极室2的侧壁上密封镶嵌有石英玻璃窗口15。在石英玻璃窗口15的外部设有光源16,光源16正对石英玻璃窗口15,使得光源16发射的光能够通过石英玻璃窗口15进入阳极室2,从而使阳极室2内的光催化阳极6在光源16发射的光的作用下发生光催化反应。 In the present invention, a quartz glass window 15 is sealed and inlaid on the side wall of the anode chamber 2 .

本发明可利用供氧装置为阴极室4提供氧气。来自供氧装置的氧气进入阴极室4内。作为本发明的一种实施方式,供氧装置可由相互连通的曝气头11和空气泵12组成。其中,曝气头11置于阴极室4内,空气泵12置于反应容器14外,曝气头11通过穿过反应容器14底部的导气管与空气泵12连通。 In the present invention, the oxygen supply device can be used to provide oxygen to the cathode chamber 4 . Oxygen enters the cathode chamber 4 from the oxygen supply. As an embodiment of the present invention, the oxygen supply device may be composed of an aeration head 11 and an air pump 12 that communicate with each other. Wherein, the aeration head 11 is placed in the cathode chamber 4 , the air pump 12 is placed outside the reaction vessel 14 , and the aeration head 11 communicates with the air pump 12 through an air duct passing through the bottom of the reaction vessel 14 .

本发明光催化燃料电池工作时,先将废水由阳极室进水口1引入到阳极室2内,在阳极室2内的光催化阳极6发生光催化反应后流出阳极室出水口9,然后通过外接导管17经阴极室进水口10流入至阴极室4内,再经阴极室4作好氧处理后通过阴极室出水口5流出反应容器14。作为本发明的一种实施方式,可使阳极室2的水位高于阴极室4的水位,从而利用两者的水位差使阳极室2内的废水通过导管17溢流至阴极室4内。 When the photocatalytic fuel cell of the present invention is working, waste water is first introduced into the anode chamber 2 from the anode chamber water inlet 1, and the photocatalytic anode 6 in the anode chamber 2 undergoes a photocatalytic reaction and flows out of the anode chamber water outlet 9, and then passes through the external The conduit 17 flows into the cathode chamber 4 through the water inlet 10 of the cathode chamber, and then flows out of the reaction vessel 14 through the water outlet 5 of the cathode chamber after undergoing aerobic treatment in the cathode chamber 4 . As an embodiment of the present invention, the water level of the anode chamber 2 can be made higher than the water level of the cathode chamber 4, so that the waste water in the anode chamber 2 overflows into the cathode chamber 4 through the conduit 17 by utilizing the water level difference between the two.

为使阴极室4保持好氧环境,可在阴极室4内接种好氧污泥。来自外部的废水经过阳极室2时,光催化阳极6在光源16照射作用下,可将废水中具有生物毒性的物质降解为毒性低的小分子有机物;小分子有机物可在光催化作用下进一步降解,同时产生电子和质子。其中,光催化阳极6所产生的电子流经外电阻8到达生物阴极7上,光催化阳极6所产生的质子则由离子交换膜3进入阴极室4内。生物阴极7上的电子与阴极室4内的质子和氧气在好氧生物催化作用下反应最终生成水;同时,具有生物毒性的物质经光催化降解后的毒性低的小分子有机物更易被好氧微生物在生长代谢中降解。阴极室4内的氧气主要由供氧装置提供。此外,废水自阳极室2流入阴极室4内后,废水中的含氮的化合物在阴极微生物的催化下,发生硝化及反硝化等反应,其主要反应的反应式为:NH4 ++2O2→NO3 -+H2O+2H+、2NO3 -+12H++10e-→N2+6H2O,由此最终生成氮气由阴极室出气口13排出,从而实现总氮的去除。 In order to keep the cathode chamber 4 in an aerobic environment, aerobic sludge can be inoculated in the cathode chamber 4 . When the wastewater from the outside passes through the anode chamber 2, the photocatalytic anode 6 can degrade the biologically toxic substances in the wastewater into low-toxic small molecular organic substances under the irradiation of the light source 16; the small molecular organic substances can be further degraded under the action of photocatalysis , producing electrons and protons simultaneously. Among them, the electrons generated by the photocatalytic anode 6 flow through the external resistor 8 to the biocathode 7 , and the protons generated by the photocatalytic anode 6 enter the cathode chamber 4 through the ion exchange membrane 3 . The electrons on the biocathode 7 react with the protons and oxygen in the cathode chamber 4 under the action of aerobic biocatalysis to finally generate water; at the same time, the organic substances with low toxicity after photocatalytic degradation of biotoxic substances are more likely to be aerobic. Microorganisms degrade during growth and metabolism. Oxygen in the cathode chamber 4 is mainly provided by an oxygen supply device. In addition, after the wastewater flows from the anode chamber 2 into the cathode chamber 4, the nitrogen-containing compounds in the wastewater undergo nitrification and denitrification reactions under the catalysis of cathode microorganisms, and the main reaction formula is: NH 4 + +2O 2 →NO 3 +H 2 O+2H + , 2NO 3 +12H + +10e →N 2 +6H 2 O, thus finally generating nitrogen gas which is discharged from the gas outlet 13 of the cathode chamber, thereby realizing the removal of total nitrogen.

本发明的阴极室4的顶部优选呈敞口状,并以此敞口作为阴极室出气口13,使得阴极室4内生成的氮气可以很好地从阴极室出气口13排除,同时方便阴极室4的曝气。 The top of the cathode chamber 4 of the present invention is preferably open, and this opening is used as the cathode chamber gas outlet 13, so that the nitrogen generated in the cathode chamber 4 can be well removed from the cathode chamber gas outlet 13, and the cathode chamber is convenient. 4 Aeration.

离子交换膜3可选用质子交换膜或阳离子交换膜。离子交换膜3在本发明反应容器中起到了双重作用:一是将阳极室2的光催化反应和阴极室4的生物反应分隔开,保障阴极室4的生物反应不受阳极室2光催化反应的影响;二是将光催化阳极6所产生的质子由阳极室2传输至阴极室4内,保证本发明电池进行正常工作。 Ion-exchange membrane 3 can be selected as proton-exchange membrane or cation-exchange membrane. The ion-exchange membrane 3 has played a dual role in the reaction vessel of the present invention: one is to separate the photocatalytic reaction of the anode chamber 2 from the biological reaction of the cathode chamber 4, so as to ensure that the biological reaction of the cathode chamber 4 is not affected by the photocatalysis of the anode chamber 2. The impact of the reaction; the second is to transmit the protons produced by the photocatalytic anode 6 from the anode chamber 2 to the cathode chamber 4 to ensure the normal operation of the battery of the present invention.

光催化阳极6可为半导体材料附着在导电基底上,其中,半导体材料可选用二氧化钛、氧化锌、三氧化钨、硫化钼、溴氧化铋等。 The photocatalytic anode 6 can be a semiconductor material attached to a conductive substrate, wherein the semiconductor material can be titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, tungsten trioxide, molybdenum sulfide, bismuth oxybromide and the like.

光源16可根据光催化阳极6半导体材料的性质决定。例如,当光催化阳极6所用的半导体材料选用溴氧化铋等可见光光催化剂时,则光源16可使用可见光光源,如太阳光、氙灯等;当光催化阳极6所用的半导体材料选用二氧化钛等紫外光光催化剂时,则光源16使用紫外光光源,如汞灯等。 The light source 16 can be determined according to the properties of the semiconductor material of the photocatalytic anode 6 . For example, when the semiconductor material used in the photocatalytic anode 6 selects visible light photocatalysts such as bismuth oxybromide, the light source 16 can use visible light sources, such as sunlight, xenon lamp, etc.; when the semiconductor material used in the photocatalytic anode 6 selects ultraviolet light such as titanium dioxide In the case of photocatalyst, the light source 16 is an ultraviolet light source, such as a mercury lamp.

生物阴极7为附着在载体上的具有电化学活性的生物膜,其中,载体可选用碳纸、碳布、碳纤维刷或碳毡。生物阴极7的微生物可以催化还原氧气,并且生物膜中还包含硝化细菌和反硝化细菌可以去除废水中的含氮化合物,最终变成氮气排出。生物阴极7具有稳定、可再生的特点,避免了贵金属催化剂的使用,降低了装置的成本。 The biocathode 7 is an electrochemically active biofilm attached to a carrier, wherein the carrier can be selected from carbon paper, carbon cloth, carbon fiber brush or carbon felt. The microorganisms in the biocathode 7 can catalyze the reduction of oxygen, and the biofilm also contains nitrifying bacteria and denitrifying bacteria, which can remove nitrogen-containing compounds in the wastewater, and finally turn them into nitrogen gas for discharge. The biocathode 7 has the characteristics of stability and regeneration, avoids the use of noble metal catalysts, and reduces the cost of the device.
