Background
The utilization of the agricultural and animal husbandry byproducts for preparing the biogas is a good matter for comprehensively utilizing multiple purposes, and the development of the biogas is also an important way for establishing a benign ecological environment of agriculture. However, with the change of rural labor force composition and the reduction of individual pig raising, the gradual use of natural gas by conditional farmers, the combination of the 'thick, big, soil and stupid' of the traditional rural biogas digester, the general low gas production efficiency and the actual situation that the gas production is generally poor after the biogas digester is built, the popularization of the rural biogas has been stopped for years and is exciting and lacking.
At present, the main directions of rural straws are returning to fields, discarding and burning. The direct abandonment or returning of the straw (dry rot in dry land) actually generates carbon dioxide as the incineration, but the oxidation process is slow and the combustion is obviously severe. The straw is returned to the field after being retted (or wet-rotted in paddy field), and the more serious greenhouse gas methane is generated to overflow into the atmosphere, which causes the greenhouse effect more than the burning effect. And the direct burning of the straws can quickly generate carbon dioxide and a large amount of smoke dust to pollute the environment, so that the straws are unacceptable to people. In fact, vast farmers even do not have enough cadres in rural areas, and may not know clearly whether the straws are produced or not, and the straws are finally produced with the same amount of carbon dioxide no matter what treatment mode is adopted unless the straws are always sealed and stored in a gas-isolating way (actually impossible). Crop photosynthesis absorbs solar energy, carbon and oxygen in carbon dioxide are separated to form an available resource, and the available resource is not wasted but is fully utilized.
The invention of heating the methane tank by solar energy has been invented before, but the invention can not always utilize solar energy to generate electricity for heating, and utilizes solar energy to generate electricity for mechanically stirring fermentation liquor. The methane tank is heated by electricity, the fermentation liquor with large volume and large specific heat cannot be effectively treated no matter the methane tank is directly heated by the electric heating pipe, or pure water is heated firstly and then the fermentation liquor is heated by the heat exchanger, and the heat exchanger is wound due to scaling of the electric heater under the working condition in the methane tank, so that the methane tank is not suitable for the electric heater or the heat exchanger to work. Therefore, the method of heating the biogas fermentation liquid by using commercial power or photovoltaic power generation is not an economical and feasible method. As for mechanical agitation, any attempt to directly agitate the rag crust or break the rag crust by disturbing the broth is impractical unless the straw is crushed or cut short enough and the agitator power is strong enough, because the agitator must be entangled by the straw and the low intensity agitation of the broth after separation of the feed and liquid at the bottom of the tank is not likely to break the rag crust of the layers of straw fibers. In addition, the relatively high-level power energy is consumed for preparing the methane, and the methane is more unreliable than beef used as fertilizer for planting grains and vegetables.

The thickness and width of the heat transfer blades 8 depend on the stiffness requirements of the solar collector inclined panel 7. The middle standard section 4 closest to the feeding section 2 and the horizontal barrel tank closest to the discharging section 3 are connected into a whole body which is sealed and has no water and gas leakage through an end plate 9 and a bottom plate 10.

In order to prevent the gas accumulation at the lower concave position of the connection between the edge of the material-blocking ventilating plate and the tank body and reduce the effective fermentation volume of the tank body, a gap is required to be reserved on the edge of the ventilating plate at the connection part of the material-blocking ventilating plate 16 and the tank body so as to facilitate the overflow of the gas without accumulation. The material blocking and ventilating plate 16 blocks the floating material to make the fermented material soaked completely, and the longitudinal gas channel 17 on the top of the tank body and the top of the tank body are enclosed by two opposite arcs to form a longitudinal gas channel 17 of the tank top (without straw), so that the longitudinal gas channel 17 is closed at the discharge port end of the last middle standard section to prevent gas overflow. The gas produced in the tank is collected to a gas collecting pipe 18 and a gas gate valve 19 at the top of the last standard section through a longitudinal gas channel after overflowing, and then is conveyed to a gas receiver, is pressurized by a pressurizing bin, is dried and desulfurized and then is used or stored or is directly used. The marsh gas produced by the household small marsh gas generator with three middle standard sections can be directly used.
The lower surface of the material blocking and ventilating plate 16 is provided with a longitudinal material distributing plate 20. The longitudinal material distributing plate 20 is inclined at a small angle from left to right, and the left material distributing plate and the right material distributing plate are arranged in a left-to-right staggered mode and are not connected end to end, so that straw floating materials floating on the upper floating top and resisting the bottom of the material blocking ventilating plate 16 are distributed and loosened from left to right when longitudinal feeding is pushed, and accordingly the blockage to gas overflow is reduced.
The horizontal barrel body is composed of a plurality of middle standard sections 4, and the two end standard sections are respectively connected with the feeding section 2 and the discharging section 3 through flanges 11 of the feeding port 6 and the discharging port 5.

The upper parts of the feeding section 2 and the discharging section 3 are both vertical box-type structures, and are respectively a feeding hopper 21 and a discharging hopper 22. The upper openings of the feed hopper 21 and the discharge hopper 22 are kept at the same horizontal height, and the upper openings of the feed hopper 21 and the discharge hopper 22 are a bit or two meters higher than the upper top surface of the last standard pitch round barrel body so as to ensure that the fermentation liquor does not overflow when the produced methane has one meter of water pressure difference (about ten kilopascals) of the fermentation liquor. The upper openings of the feed hopper 21 and the discharge hopper 22 are both provided with covers so as to cover when no feeding and discharging operation is carried out. The lower parts of the feeding section 2 and the discharging section 3 and the feeding port 6 and the discharging port 5 at the end parts of the (initial and final) end standard section 4 are sealed by a flange 11 and a connecting rubber ring 12. The depth of each upper section of the barrel body inserted into the lower section exceeds the cross-sectional diameter of the rubber ring by 3 cm. If the diameter of the seal ring is 3 cm in transverse section, the length of the overlap between two sections is not less than 6 cm, and the rest transverse sections are analogized. The discharging section 3 has a simple structure, and can conveniently extract tail liquid and fish out residual materials. A material blocking grid 32 which can move up and down to open and close is arranged outside the discharge port 6 in the discharge section 3 and is used for blocking the floating materials from overflowing when the materials are not discharged. The bottom of the discharging section 3 is box-shaped. The bottom of the feeding section 3 is in a semicircular barrel shape with the same radian as the lower half part of the feeding hole 5 of the initial standard section, so that the feeding section and the arc-shaped pressing disc 23 are combined into a shape which is the same as that of the feeding hole 5, and then the straw fermentation material is pushed to the feeding hole by the material pushing disc 24.
The feeding hopper 21 is internally provided with an arc-shaped material pressing disc 23 which moves vertically and a circular material ejecting disc 24 which moves longitudinally, the material pressing disc and the material ejecting disc of the commercial fermentation tank are powered by a hydraulic ejector rod 25, and the stroke of the ejector rod is determined according to the feeding hopper 21 with different sizes.

The gas gate valve 19 is connected to a gas transmission pipeline, and the gas is transmitted from the gas transmission pipeline to the gas receiver. In other embodiments, the biogas may be used without providing a gas receiver.
FIG. 8 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a water collector in the middle of a gas pipe in embodiment 1 of the present invention.
As shown in figure 8, a gas receiver and a pressurizing bin are arranged at proper positions which are not far away from the fermentation tank, and a middle water collector 28 of a gas transmission pipe is arranged at each low position of the gas transmission pipe which is slightly far away from the gas transmission distance so as to prevent the condensed water from forming ice to block the gas transmission pipe and prevent overpressure methane in the tank from overflowing. The gas receiver can be in the form of a gas bag made of soft film materials or a gas-tight hard structure gas chamber in the form of metal, masonry, reinforced concrete and the like. The pressurizing bin can adopt various pressurizing modes as long as the pressure difference of one meter of fermentation is achieved and is not more than about ten kilopascals.
The fermentation tank needs to set up jar interior feed liquid temperature measuring device in tank deck suitable position to the feed liquid temperature in the control jar prevents the overtemperature. When the temperature of the feed liquid exceeds 50 ℃, the heat collection panel can be covered by the longitudinal part of the sunshade net to prevent the feed liquid from further heating.

And (5) repeatedly carrying out feeding action until the first full-bin charging is completed. After the dry materials are filled fully and the top is filled fully, water is added to overflow to a position which is not more than 10 cm below the upper opening of the discharge hopper, and in order to prevent the overflow of the methane caused by the over-low liquid level in the upper tank, attention needs to be paid to timely liquid adding to maintain the liquid level of the discharge opening 5 to be not lower than the height. Before any kind of feeding, discharging or liquid pumping and water adding operation is carried out in the horizontal barrel type methane generator, the gas gate valve 19 needs to be closed. And (3) adding feeding materials subsequently, extracting partial tail liquid and taking out slag materials from the discharge port 5 according to requirements, and adding a corresponding amount of new materials. When and how much tail liquid and slag are extracted, and fresh material is added, or only fresh material is added without slag, according to the fermented degree of the fermented material at the discharge port 5.
The above-mentioned fermented dry material is obtained by soaking and compacting the straw material with water (or thin manure liquid, particularly weak alkaline water added with lime can destroy wax shells on the straw surface) for several days to harden the straw material (for example, under commercial conditions, mechanical compacting is firstly used for compacting into blocks).

And may be stored when necessary. A water injection valve 35 is arranged below the gas gate valve 19 on the gas collecting pipe 18 so as to supplement water into the fermentation tank body when the gas gate valve 19 is closed.
When feeding or discharging or adding fermentation liquor, the gas gate valve 19 is closed to isolate the fermentation tank from the pressure gas container, so that the fermentation tank is depressurized and then the discharge port 505 (or the feed port 606) is opened, and then feeding or adding fermentation liquor is carried out.
If the tank body is made of reinforced concrete, the tank body and steel parts such as the heat collection inclined panel 7 need to be connected in a proper and sealing mode.
The tank body outside the heat collection inclined panel 7 comprises a discharge port and a feed port, and a heat insulation layer 15 is required to be arranged outside the feed port, if the tank body is arranged back to slope, the heat insulation layer at the position can be simplified correspondingly when soil can be filled on one side close to the slope for heat insulation.
The low-temperature fermentation liquid behind the inclined panel 7 receives heat of the heat transfer blade 8, rises to the upper part of the fermentation tank, passes through straw gaps for heat exchange and cooling, sinks along the shady surface of the fermentation tank, enters the bottom of the fermentation tank again to wait for the floating by heating, and then completes convection circulation (as shown in figure 11). The convection is continued in such a cycle, and the temperature of the material and the liquid in the whole fermentation tank is improved.
The new feed is fed with straw material which is soaked and compacted in advance. Because the volume of the straw is reduced after soaking and fermenting, if a feed inlet is arranged, a plurality of times of half-cooked (or green and fresh) materials can be supplemented and added in the interval period of twice 'full-in full-out' materials, so that the full-fermentation utilization efficiency is improved.
And a large-caliber gate valve 27 is arranged at the bottom of other proper vertical surfaces outside the heat collection panel of the fermentation tank and is used for cleaning and discharging the tank.
A gas container and a pressurizing bin are arranged at a proper position which is not far away from the fermentation tank, and a middle water collector 28 of the gas conveying pipe is arranged at each low position point of the gas conveying pipe when the gas conveying distance is slightly far away so as to prevent the gas conveying pipe from being blocked by the condensed water which is formed into ice. The gas receiver can be in the form of a gas bag made of soft film materials or a gas-tight hard structure gas chamber in the form of metal, masonry and reinforced concrete. The pressurizing bin can adopt various pressurizing modes, and only needs to reach and not exceed one meter of fermentation hydraulic pressure difference, about ten kilopascals.
The tank body can be individually designed by adjusting the dimensions of the box-type fermentation tank in all directions according to special terrain conditions.
The longitudinal length of the tank body can be shortened to the state that the discharge hole 505 and the air collecting chamber 34 are arranged closely, even the two are combined into one. When the (inlet) and outlet opening 505 and the gas collection chamber 34 are combined, the tank top steel plate with the diameter not larger than 15 mm densely distributed under the original gas collection chamber 34 is the bottom of a new combined piece, the bottom can play a role of pressing and blocking floating materials to enable the fermentation materials to be fully soaked in the whole process and overflow biogas, the item which protrudes upwards from the upper part of the gas collection chamber 34 by 20 cm and has the diameter of 50 cm and is vertically provided with a gas collection pipe is the top of the combined piece and is also the (inlet) and outlet opening cover, and the peripheral flange of the (inlet) and outlet opening cover is the peripheral flange of the combined piece.
The lateral depth of the tank body can be deepened or shallowed. The lower limit of the shallow depth is the dimension of the tank top which can meet the requirements of arranging the discharge port 505 and the gas collecting chamber 34. The depth of the heating plate is not more than one time of the original dimension so as to avoid affecting the heat collection and heating effects.
The height of the tank body can be increased, but the increase of the tank body increases the side pressure of the tank bottom liquid to the tank wall, and the material thickness must be increased to deal with the side pressure, so that the manufacturing cost is increased, and therefore, the measurement and calculation are designed and implemented after selecting proper dimensions.
The fermentation tank needs to set up jar interior feed liquid temperature measuring device in tank deck suitable position to the feed liquid temperature in the control jar prevents the overtemperature. When the temperature of the feed liquid exceeds 50 ℃, the heat collection panel can be covered by the longitudinal part of the sunshade net to prevent the feed liquid from further heating.
The biogas generator provided by the embodiment has the advantages that the gas container, the pressurizing bin and the gas pipeline are strictly forbidden to open fire along the line. And open fire or equipment capable of generating electric sparks is strictly forbidden from entering the emptied methane generator. Except for no water and no material and reliable ventilation, all personnel are prohibited from entering the used fermentation tank.
When the box-type fermentation tank methane generator is filled with materials, the material inlet and outlet are opened, and after the fermentation dry materials are filled in the full bin and compacted, the tank body is filled with activated sludge water (preferably a small amount of human and animal manure liquid is mixed in the activated sludge water). And when the materials are changed from the whole inlet to the whole outlet later, taking out the slag materials and extracting part of fermentation liquor, and leaving half of the fermentation liquor for inoculation. The time when the "full feed and full discharge" is selected depends on the degree of fermentation of the fermented material. Because the volume of the straw is reduced after soaking and fermenting, if a feed inlet is arranged, a plurality of times of half-cooked (or green and fresh materials) can be supplemented and added in the interval period of twice 'full-in full-out' materials, and water is supplemented at a proper time, so that the full-tank fermentation efficiency is improved.
The above-mentioned preparation method of the fermented dry material is the same as that of example 1, and is not described in detail.
Effects and effects of the embodiments
According to the solar direct-heating gas-liquid separation type biogas generator, the solar heat collection panel is arranged, so that biogas fermentation liquid is heated and circulated and convected among straw gaps, unpowered stirring of the fermentation liquid is completed, an environment where straws are fully contacted with the fermentation liquid is created for biogas anaerobic fermentation, and the pH value of the fermentation liquid in the tank can be balanced in time to avoid the condition that local pH value and alkalinity are too high to influence fermentation.
According to the solar direct-heating gas-liquid separation type methane generator related to the embodiment, because the methane generated by fermentation is concentrated to the longitudinal gas channel or the gas collection chamber towards the top of the tank and is conveyed to the gas container through the gas conveying system, the embodiment can enable the generated gas to leave the fermentation tank in time, so that the fermentation material is always soaked completely in a gas-liquid separation mode, the condition that the fermentation material floats upwards and crusts in the total number of the traditional methane tanks without stirrers can be effectively twisted, the methane is prevented from overflowing into the top gas chamber, the methane is jacked up to intensify the separation of the fermentation material and the material liquid, the fermentation is further hindered, and the vicious circle is formed. Thereby changing the condition that the biogas digester can quickly enter a gas production stagnation state after the first charging and gas outlet, and solving the traditional stubborn problem of the disease state tank of 'bringing into production and bringing back to rest'.
According to the solar direct-heating gas-liquid separation type methane generator, because the solar heat collection panel and the heat transfer blades are arranged, the embodiment does not use a medium to indirectly transfer heat, but adopts a mode of directly heating the methane fermentation liquid, so that the methane generator is more effective in practice, the equipment manufacturing cost is low, and the failure rate is low. The heating plate does not exceed the high temperature of boiling water, so scaling is not easy, the heat transfer blades are vertically arranged and are not wound, the later maintenance is convenient, the power consumption is almost avoided, and the popularization in rural areas is relatively feasible and easier.
According to the solar direct-heating gas-liquid separation type methane generator related to the embodiment, because the materials of all the components are made of steel, the traditional form of 'thick, big, soil and stupid' of a rural methane tank is thoroughly changed while water and gas leakage of the tank body are avoided, and domestic surplus steel production capacity is fully utilized.
According to the horizontal barrel type biogas generator of the embodiment 1, since the tank body can be composed of a plurality of standard sections, the length (volume) of the fermentation tank can be determined by increasing or decreasing the arrangement of the standard sections according to the functional requirements, the design volume and the site conditions. Although the generators are different, the components are the same, so that the possibility of manufacturing large-scale methane generators in batches by factories after the standardized design is provided. The method can improve the manufacturing quality, reduce the site construction time, facilitate later maintenance and accessory replacement, and greatly save the construction cost.
According to the solar direct-heating gas-liquid separation type methane generator related to the embodiment, the fermentation tank structure in the embodiment can be used for fermenting the straws in a high feed-liquid ratio mode, so that the conventional low feed-liquid ratio (1: 9 or even lower) and a methane fermentation batching mode mainly comprising animal manure are changed, the straws are fermented in a high feed-liquid ratio (3: 7 or more, if pressed straws are adopted), the fermented feed liquid is directly heated by solar energy, and the fermentation activity of hydrogen producing bacteria, acetogenic bacteria and methanogenic bacteria is improved by improving the temperature of the feed liquid, so that the gas production efficiency of the methane generator is greatly improved.
In addition, the above embodiment can also determine the time of the feeding and discharging linkage operation or the frequency and quantity of the supplement feeding which can only feed but can not feed between two times of feeding and discharging linkage operation by observing the fermentation degree of the fermented material so as to keep the full-tank full material continuous gas making.
The above embodiments are preferred examples of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
