The invention relates to a sulfydryl
silicon dioxide coated magnetic
biochar material, a preparation method thereof and an application of the sulfydryl
silicon dioxide coated magnetic
biochar material in adsorbing and removing
cadmium ions, the material takes
biochar prepared from
aquaculture byproducts as a substrate, and Fe3O4 magnetic particles, a
silicon dioxide
coating layer and a sulfydryl functional group are loaded in sequence. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, synthesizing magnetic biochar containing SiO2-coated Fe3O4 particles on the surface by a
coprecipitation method under an alkaline condition, and then carrying out sulfydryl modification on the magnetic biochar by a
grafting method to finally prepare the sulfydryl-modified
silicon dioxide-coated magnetic biochar adsorbent. The adsorbent prepared by the method has the characteristics of high specific surface area, abundant pore structures, a large number of sulfydryl active groups and the like, shows high adsorption capacity and good selectivity on
cadmium ions in water, and can be conveniently separated and recycled through
magnetism. The material can also be used for adsorbing lead,
copper,
zinc,
chromium and other heavy
metal ions, the preparation process is simple, and the material has wide application prospects in the field of heavy
metal wastewater treatment.
