Problems solved by technology

However, in actual water bodies, there are usually many kinds of pollutants, the content of which is much higher than the concentration of mercury ions, and the selectivity of these adsorbents is usually poor, and they will also adsorb a large amount of other coexisting ions or Pollutants occupy a large number of adsorption sites and seriously affect the removal effect of the adsorbent on mercury ions
Adsorbents such as activated carbon that adsorb a large amount of mercury ions need to be separated from the water body after a long period of precipitation, and the separation process takes a long time
The separated precipitated sludge (adsorbent) cannot be recycled under normal circumstances, but is treated as hazardous waste. If it is slightly improper, it is very easy to cause secondary pollution, and the adsorbed mercury will be released into the environment again.
Therefore, the adsorbents currently used for the removal of mercury ions in water have the following main problems: (1) limited adsorption capacity; (2) poor selectivity; (3) the adsorption material and water are not easily separated; (4) the adsorbent is very Difficult to recycle and reuse; (5) The adsorbents adsorbed with mercury ions are difficult to handle and easily cause secondary pollution
Although carbon nanotubes have been used in water treatment, like other adsorbents, carbon nanotubes have poor adsorption selectivity to mercury ions, are easily interfered by other high-content pollutants, and have limited adsorption capacity for mercury ions. It is difficult to meet the advanced treatment requirements of mercury ions in water; at the same time, due to the certain hydrophobicity of carbon nanotubes, it is not easy to disperse and separate in water, and the operation in practical applications is relatively difficult; in addition, the cost of carbon nanotubes is relatively high, such as It cannot be recycled and reused, which will cause a significant increase in processing costs and limit its application prospects as an excellent adsorbent

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for removing mercury ions from water by using silver-modified magnetic carbon nanotubes and a regeneration method thereof. A trace amount of mercury ions (Hg2+) in a polluted water body are adsorbed by silver nanoparticle-loaded / iron oxide magnetic carbon nanotubes as adsorbent under the conditions that the temperature is 20 DEG C to 60 DEG C and the pH value is 3 to 8; and the adsorbent is recycled and regenerated by thermal desorption. The silver nanoparticle-loaded / iron oxide magnetic carbon nanotube has powerful capability and specificity of adsorbing mercury ions in water. With magnetic separation techniques, the process of separating the adsorbent from the water solution is greatly simplified, the probability of secondary pollution is reduced to the greatest extent, and the environmental benefit is improved.

Background technique [0002] Mercury pollution has become a global environmental problem, especially mercury in water has attracted people's attention. Mercury in water can be enriched by aquatic organisms and biotransform into highly toxic organic mercury compounds. Mercury and its compounds have strong neurotoxicity and genotoxicity, and a very small amount of mercury can cause tissue damage or disease, induce chromosomal damage and neurological diseases. In industry, mercury and its compounds are widely used, such as chlor-alkali, papermaking, batteries, electronics, metallurgy and medical equipment, etc. At the same time, some energy utilization processes can also cause certa...
