Abstract

The invention discloses an elemental mercury absorbent, and a preparation method and application thereof. The elemental mercury absorbent consists of multi-wall carbon nano-tubes; silver clusters are uniformly distributed on the surface of the multi-wall carbon nano-tube, wherein the multi-wall carbon nano-tube has a diameter of 10 to 200 nm and a length of 0.01 to 3 mm; the diameter of each silver cluster is less than 3 nm; the silver cluster contains 0.1 to 12 mass percent of silver; and a silver-loaded carbon nano-tube is produced by ultrasonically stirring, mixing, filtering, drying and thermally reducing the dispersive carbon nano-tubes and solution of silver nitrate. As the carbon nano-tube has amalgam reaction capacity and high elemental mercury absorption capacity, and desorbed mercury totally exists in a form of elemental mercury, the carbon nano-tube can be used as the elemental mercury absorbent for a bed material of an absorbent bed, can be used for the absorbent jetting and mercury removal of a flue, and also can be used for the sampling of the elemental mercury and the manufacturing of a mercury trap in a mercury testing system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to adsorbent technology, and in particular relates to a simple mercury adsorbent and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Mercury, especially methylmercury, has been proven to have irreversible toxic effects on the development and nervous system of humans, especially fetuses. The most famous example of mercury poisoning is the Minamata Incident in Japan, known as one of the "eight major public hazard incidents", which has affected the incident for decades and has tens of thousands of victims. Mercury is a trace element in nature, but since the industrial revolution, the mercury content in the atmosphere and biosphere has been increasing. In addition to natural releases, such as volcanic eruptions, these sources of mercury mainly come from man-made sources, including industrial production processes such as coal combustion, garbage incineration, and lamp factories. [0003] Mercury emitted from ind...
