Problems solved by technology

The first four traditional treatment methods are mature in technology and widely used, but there are also obvious deficiencies in practical applications: such as evaporation and concentration method consumes a lot of energy, the operating environment is harsh, and the cost of operation and maintenance is high; The waste liquid and sediment need to be treated twice; the cost of ion exchange method is high, the adsorption capacity is low, and the waste resin generated needs to be properly treated; the application potential of adsorption method is also limited due to the price of adsorption materials and stable performance. limit
However, there is still no report in the literature on the use of graphene oxide as a membrane separation material to treat radioactive wastewater.

Embodiment 3

[0044] The graphene oxide-based composite membrane is prepared on a sheet-shaped porous polycarbonate carrier (average pore diameter: 200 nm) by using the method of the present invention. As described in Example 1, the preparation process is basically the same, only the mass ratio of graphene oxide / dopamine is adjusted to 1. Characterization methods such as XRD determined that the nanochannel size of the graphene oxide composite film was about 0.40 nm. The separation performance of the prepared composite membrane was tested, and the results showed that the permeation flux of the membrane was 5.8L / m for the wastewater solution containing radionuclide ion concentration of 0.1mg / L 2 h, where Cs + Ion rejection rate is 78.12%, Sr 2+ Ion rejection rate is 85.35%, Eu 3+ Ion rejection rate is 99.92%, Th 4+ The ion rejection rate is 99.95%.
