The invention relates to a preparation method of an adsorbent for complexing
heavy metals in water. The preparation method comprises the following steps: crushing a
biomass raw material to 20-100 meshes, and carrying out heat treatment at 270-500 DEG C under the protection of
nitrogen; carrying out violent stirring and soaking treatment with a 0-2 mol / L KOH solution, washing with deionized water to be neutral, and
drying; treating at a temperature of 40-90 DEG C according to a ratio of a biological material to
dimethylformamide to 30% NaOH to
epichlorohydrin of 3 g to 10-30 mL to 0-10 mL to 5-20 mL; reducing the temperature to 30-40 DEG C, slowly adding 2.5-10 mL of
diethylenetriamine or
triethylenetetramine in a dropwise manner, and treating; adding absolute ethyl
alcohol and CS2 into thesample subjected to suction
filtration treatment with a proper amount of
acetone, ethyl
alcohol and deionized water, and treating under an ice-water bath condition; and finally repeatedly washing thesuction
filtration sample with deionized water, and
drying at 40 DEG C. The prepared adsorbent for complexing
heavy metals has the advantages of strong specific surface area, strong chelating capability, easily available materials, rich resources, convenience use, simple operation, no requirement of additional
separation process, mild preparation conditions, easy in
batch production and the like.
