Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the interdisciplinary field of environmental catalysis and green chemical engineering, specifically relating to a method for producing hydrogen peroxide from organic wastewater based on a PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system. Background Technology
[0002] Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), as a new generation of green oxidant, exhibits excellent redox properties due to its unique molecular structure-activity relationship, combining environmental compatibility (decomposition products are H2O and O2) with industrial applicability. This characteristic makes it irreplaceable in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs), fine organic synthesis, and biomedical engineering. However, currently, over 90% of global H2O2 production capacity still relies on the traditional anthraquinone cycle process, which involves multiple hydrogenation / oxidation steps and suffers from significant energy consumption and waste pollution. Therefore, developing efficient, low-energy-consumption green synthesis technologies for H2O2 has become one of the core challenges in achieving sustainable chemical manufacturing.
[0003] Photocatalytic synthesis technology offers an innovative breakthrough in overcoming the aforementioned challenges. Essentially, it drives redox reactions through photogenerated carriers (e⁻-h⁺ pairs) in semiconductor photosensitive materials, primarily involving two competing pathways: (1) a hole-dominated water oxidation pathway (Equations 1-2); and (2) an electron-mediated oxygen reduction pathway (Equations 3-5). The two-electron oxygen reduction reaction, due to its superior thermodynamic driving force and selectivity, is considered a key pathway for achieving efficient H₂O₂ synthesis. However, limited by the rapid recombination effect of photogenerated carriers (quantum efficiency generally <10%), the H₂O₂ yield of existing photocatalytic systems still falls short of industrial requirements.
[0004] To address the bottleneck of low carrier separation efficiency, the academic community has proposed strategies such as noble metal co-catalysis, band structure modulation, and sacrificial agent assistance. However, the high cost of noble metals and the large-scale consumption of sacrificial agents severely restrict their practical application. Recent research shows that introducing reversible redox mediators (such as quinone / phenol systems) can significantly improve carrier lifetime through dynamic electron transfer mechanisms. These breakthroughs reveal the crucial role of electron mediators in optimizing reaction pathways, providing a new paradigm for developing self-sustaining catalytic systems. Notably, sulfoxide pollutants widely present in industrial wastewater (such as methyl phenyl sulfoxide-PMSO) may possess the dual functions of pollutant resource utilization and electron transfer promotion due to their unique electronic structure characteristics (S=O groups contain highly active lone pairs of electrons). Theoretical studies indicate that S=O groups can act as electron acceptors to capture photogenerated electrons and lower the O2 activation barrier through intramolecular charge transfer. Constructing a photocatalytic / PMSO system and deepening the understanding of photocatalytic electron transfer mechanisms will provide theoretical support for the development of "waste-to-waste" environmental catalytic technologies. The main technical problems existing in the current technology are as follows:
[0005] 1. Low H2O2 photocatalytic yield: Traditional PDI-based catalysts achieve H2O2 yields of less than ~25 μM·g in pure water systems. -1 ·h -1 1. It is difficult to meet industrial needs; 2. High carrier recombination rate: The narrow bandgap characteristics of PDI lead to rapid recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs, reducing quantum efficiency; 3. Insufficient stability: The yield of most modified PDI catalysts decreases by more than 30% after 5 cycles (Zhang et al., Appl. Catal. B 2021, 298, 120558).
[0006] Existing research often improves performance through noble metal loading (such as Pt modification) or heterostructure building (such as g-C3N4 / PDI), but this approach suffers from high costs and complex processes. The applicant's research has found that coupling PMSO wastewater with PDI can significantly improve these shortcomings through interfacial electron transfer effects.
[0007] Therefore, this application proposes to form a composite photocatalytic system by combining perylene imide (PDI) and methyl phenyl sulfoxide (PMSO), which can be used for in-situ production of hydrogen peroxide from organic wastewater. Summary of the Invention

[0047] This invention is highly innovative, revealing for the first time the nonlinear enhancement effect of PMSO concentration gradient (0.5-20 mM) on the photocatalytic H2O2 production performance of PDI. Compared with traditional modification techniques, this invention overcomes the limitations of relying on complex chemical modifications, achieving a significant increase in yield simply by mixing PDI with PMSO wastewater, thus successfully realizing a technological breakthrough in "wastewater photocatalytic resource utilization".
[0048] This invention utilizes a simple preparation process to add PDI to PMSO wastewater, achieving a 4.3-fold increase in yield and overcoming the complexity of traditional processes. The wastewater treatment method described in this invention can be applied to wastewater treatment following H2O2 synthesis, as well as various other types of wastewater treatment.
[0049] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:
[0050] 1. Breakthrough in Yield: Compared with traditional pure PDI catalysts, the H2O2 yield of the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system of this invention is increased by 4.3 times (e.g., ...). Figure 1 (As shown in the figure). This significant yield increase indicates that the composite system has great application potential in the photocatalytic resource-based synthesis of H2O2.
[0051] 2. Carrier modulation: 1) Increased photocurrent intensity. Photocurrent intensity is an important indicator of the separation and transport efficiency of photogenerated carriers. Experimental results show that when the PMSO concentration is 10 mM, the photocurrent intensity is increased by 1.8 times compared to pure PDI (e.g., ...). Figure 2(As shown). This indicates that the addition of PMSO effectively promotes the transport of photogenerated electrons and reduces carrier recombination; 2) the steady-state fluorescence intensity decreases, and the steady-state fluorescence spectrum can reflect the recombination of photogenerated carriers. Pure PDI has a strong fluorescence peak at 674 nm, while the fluorescence intensity decreases by 37% after the addition of 10 mM PMSO (as shown). Figure 3 (As shown). This further demonstrates that the composite system can effectively suppress the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and improve quantum efficiency.
[0052] 3. Cyclic Stability: To evaluate the stability of the composite photocatalytic system, cyclic stability tests were conducted. The results showed that after 10 cycles, the H2O2 yield remained above 80% of its initial value (e.g., ...). Figure 4 (As shown in the figure). This excellent cycling stability indicates that the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system has good durability and can meet the long-term operating requirements of actual industrial production.
[0053] 4. Structural stability: This is demonstrated by TEM (e.g., ...). Figure 5 (as shown in ad), DRS (as shown in ad) Figure 5 (as shown in e) and FT-IR (as shown in e) Figure 5 Characterization techniques (as shown in f) were used to analyze the materials before and after the reaction. The results showed that the crystal structure, optical properties, and functional groups of PDI did not change significantly before and after the reaction. This indicates that the composite photocatalytic system possesses good structural stability during the photocatalytic reaction, providing a strong guarantee for its long-term stable operation.
[0054] 5. Reliability in application: Evaluate different light sources (such as...) Figure 6 ), different coexisting pollutants (such as Figure 7 ) and different water bodies (such as Figure 8 The activity of the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system under various conditions was investigated. The results showed that the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system has good adaptability and high H2O2 yield and activity in multiple scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0065] Example 1
[0066] A method for preparing a PDI supramolecular photocatalyst, the specific steps of which are as follows:
[0067] 1) Under an argon atmosphere, 6 mmol of perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride (2.353 g), 40 mmol of β-alanine (3.563 g), and 18.0 g of imidazole were mixed and placed in a reaction vessel, and then the mixture was incubated at 5 °C·min under an argon atmosphere. -1 The temperature was increased to 100℃ and reacted for 4 hours. After the reaction, the mixture was cooled to room temperature (25±5℃) and then ground into powder.
[0068] 2) Wash the product from step 1) sequentially with 100 mL of anhydrous ethanol and 300 mL of 2.0 M HCl solution with stirring for 12 h, and then filter until the pH of the filtrate is neutral;
[0069] 3) The product from step 2) was dried at 60°C and dispersed in 200 mL of ultrapure water. 0.83 mL of triethylamine and 27.30 mL of 4.0 M HCl solution were added. After shaking for 3 h, the mixture was filtered and dried to obtain powdered PDI supramolecular photocatalyst.
[0070] Example 2
[0071] Construction of the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system:
[0072] 0.01 g of powdered PDI supramolecular photocatalyst was dispersed in 50 mL of ultrapure water. Then, PMSO was added to final concentrations of 0, 0.5, 1, 5, 10, and 20 mM, respectively, to construct a PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system.
[0073] Application Experiment 1
[0074] The experiment on the photocatalytic production of H2O2 using the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system described in Example 2 is as follows:
[0075] 1. The PDI / PMSO composite system of Example 2 (where the final PMSO concentrations were 0, 0.5, 1, 5, 10, and 20 mM, respectively) was first placed in a dark environment for adsorption for 30 min, and then subjected to simulated sunlight (PLS-SXE300 / 300UV light source (xenon lamp), light intensity 100±3 mW·cm). -2 The reaction was carried out for 60 min at a wavelength greater than 400 nm and an illumination power of 300 W.
[0076] 2. Take samples at regular intervals (take a sample every 10 minutes, with a sample volume of 1 mL) and determine the H2O2 concentration using the iodometric method (the determination method is referenced in: Environmental Science & Technology, 1988, 22(7): 798-806).
[0077] Test results are as follows Figure 1 As shown, from Figure 1 As can be seen, the optimal group (final PMSO concentration of 10 mM) achieved an H2O2 yield of 137.28 μM·g. -1 ·h -1 Compared with traditional pure PDI catalysts, the H2O2 yield of the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system is increased by 4.3 times (e.g., ...). Figure 1(As shown in the figure). This significant yield increase indicates that the composite system has great application potential in the photocatalytic resource-based synthesis of H2O2.
[0078] Performance testing of PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system
[0079] 1. Photocurrent response test: The photocurrent response curve was measured using a CHI-760 E electrochemical workstation (CH Instruments, USA).
[0080] Test results are as follows Figure 2 As shown, the test groups were: pure PDI, PDI + 1 mM PMSO, and PDI + 10 mM PMSO.
[0081] Photocurrent intensity is an important indicator for measuring the efficiency of photogenerated carrier separation and transport. Figure 2 The results showed that when the PMSO concentration was 10 mM, the photocurrent intensity was increased by 1.8 times compared to pure PDI (e.g., ...). Figure 2 (As shown). This indicates that the addition of PMSO effectively promotes the transport of photogenerated electrons and reduces carrier recombination.
[0082] 2. Steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy was performed using a Hitachi F7000 fluorescence spectrometer (Japan). Different concentrations of PMSO were prepared in the PDI mixture, stirred and mixed, and 1 mL was placed in the fluorescence detector for analysis. The excitation wavelength was 390 nm.
[0083] Test results are as follows Figure 3 As shown, the test groups were: pure PDI, 1 mM PMSO, 5 mM PMSO, and 10 mM PMSO; from Figure 3 As can be seen from the data, the characteristic peak positions are: the pure PDI group has a strong fluorescence peak at 674 nm, while the fluorescence intensity of the 10 mM PMSO group decreases by 37%.
[0084] Steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy can reflect the recombination of photogenerated carriers. Figure 3 The results showed that pure PDI had a strong fluorescence peak at 674 nm, but when 10 mM PMSO was added, the fluorescence intensity decreased from 418 au at 674 nm to 263 au, a decrease of 37% (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown). This further demonstrates that the composite system can effectively suppress the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs and improve quantum efficiency.
[0085] 3. Material Characterization Comparison and Catalyst Characterization Methods: Under an accelerating voltage of 200 kV, the morphology, surface properties, and agglomeration of the photocatalyst were analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM, JEM-2100F, Japan Electron Optics Laboratory, Japan). The spectral characteristics of the prepared photocatalyst were tested in the wavelength range of 200–800 nm using a UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectrometer (UV-Vis / DRS, UV-3600 plus, SHIMADZU, Japan). Covalent bonds and special functional groups in the photocatalyst were determined using a Nicolet 6700 Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR, Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA).
[0086] The concentration of PDI in the system was 0.2 g / L, and the concentration of PMSO was 10 mM.
[0087] via TEM (e.g.) Figure 5 As shown in AD; TEM images of PDI before the light is turned on (a) and (c), and after 60 minutes of reaction (b) and (d), DRS (as shown in AD). Figure 5 (as shown in e) and FT-IR (as shown in e) Figure 5 Characterization techniques such as (as shown in f) were used to analyze the materials before and after the reaction. Figure 5 The results showed that, in the TEM image, the morphology of PDI did not change significantly before and after the reaction; in the DRS image, the absorption edge position remained consistent; and in the FT-IR image, the characteristic functional groups did not shift significantly. These results indicate that the crystal structure, optical properties, and functional groups of PDI did not change significantly before and after the reaction in the first application experiment. This demonstrates that the composite photocatalytic system exhibits good structural stability during the photocatalytic reaction, providing a strong guarantee for its long-term stable operation.
[0088] Application Experiment 2: Cyclic Stability Test
[0089] The cycle stability of the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system described in Example 2 was tested using the following steps: The stability of the catalyst was evaluated by repeatedly placing the recovered PDI catalyst in PMSO (10 mM) wastewater (refer to Application Experiment 1, where PMSO was added to ultrapure water to simulate wastewater) for multiple rounds of photocatalytic H2O2 synthesis experiments. The PDI concentration was 0.2 g / L, and the lamp source was a xenon lamp (light intensity 100 ± 3 mW·cm²). -2 (Wavelength greater than 400 nm, illumination power 300 W).
[0090] Cyclic stability test results are as follows Figure 4 As shown (PMSO concentration is 10 mM). Figure 4 In the middle, the horizontal axis represents the number of cycles (1-10), and the vertical axis represents the H2O2 yield (μM·g) on the left. -1·h -1 The right side shows the H2O2 yield retention rate (%).
[0091] from Figure 4 As can be seen, the morphology and spectral characteristics of the catalyst remain unchanged before and after the reaction. After 10 cycles, the H2O2 yield can still maintain more than 80% of the initial value (e.g., Figure 4 (As shown in the figure). This excellent cycling stability indicates that the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system has good durability and can meet the long-term operating requirements of actual industrial production.
[0092] Application Experiment 3: Testing with Different Light Sources
[0093] The experiment of photocatalytic H2O2 production using the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system described in Example 2 under different light source conditions was conducted using the same test method as Application Experiment 1. The difference was that after the dark reaction was completed, light of different wavelengths was used as the reaction light source to carry out the photocatalytic reaction, and the power of each lamp was the same as in Application Experiment 1.
[0094] Test results are as follows Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 In the middle (PMSO concentration is 10 mM), the lower horizontal axis represents the absorption of PDI light source and the corresponding sunlight spectrum; the upper horizontal axis represents different light sources; the left vertical axis represents absorbance; and the right vertical axis represents H2O2 yield.
[0095] from Figure 6 It can be seen that under different light source conditions (direct sunlight, wavelength greater than 295 nm, illuminance of 95 mW / cm²), 2 Blue LED light, wavelength 455-460nm, illuminance 6.2mW / cm². -2 The ultraviolet LED light has a wavelength of 390-400nm and an illuminance of 4.0 mW / cm². -2 Green LED light, wavelength 515-530nm, illuminance 6.0 mW / cm². -2 Yellow LED light, wavelength 590-595nm, illuminance 4.0 mW / cm². -2 Red LED light, wavelength 655-660nm, illuminance 11.0 mW / cm². -2The PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system described in Example 2 exhibits good H2O2 yields. It shows a significant increase in H2O2 yield under different light source conditions, both in real and simulated sunlight, and even under long-wavelength red light, demonstrating a yield increase of 0.76 times compared to the xenon lamp-only system (Vis-PDI). This further indicates that the addition of PMSO not only effectively enhances the ability of PDI to photosynthesize H2O2, but also has great potential for H2O2 photosynthesis under renewable sunlight.
[0096] Application Experiment 4: Degradation Test of Different Coexisting Pollutants
[0097] The experiment of photocatalytic degradation of various water pollutants using the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system described in Example 2 was conducted. The test method was the same as in Application Experiment 1, except that photocatalytic degradation was carried out under the condition of coexistence of different water pollutants, including BPA (bisphenol A), BPAF (bisphenol AF), BPB (bromophenol blue), BPF (bisphenol F), CIP (ciprofloxacin), ENX (enoxacin), NOR (norfloxacin), OFX (ofloxacin), RMB (rhodamine B), MLB (methylene blue), NGB (naphthol green B), and MTO (methyl orange). Specifically, the concentration of each water pollutant was 2 mg / L.
[0098] Experimental conditions were as follows: simulated sunlight (PLS-SXE300 / 300UV light source (xenon lamp, light intensity 100±3 mW·cm)). -2 The reaction was carried out for 60 min at a wavelength greater than 400 nm and an illumination power of 300 W.
[0099] Test results are as follows Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 (PMSO concentration is 10 mM) In the diagram, the horizontal axis represents different pollutants (bisphenol A, fluoroquinolones, and dyes); the left vertical axis represents the pollutant degradation rate; the inset shows the PMSO degradation.
[0100] The results showed that in the pre-generated H2O2 + mercury lamp system, the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system described in Example 2 effectively degraded twelve coexisting (added separately) new pollutants, including bisphenol A, fluoroquinolones, and dyes. Compared with mercury lamp degradation alone, the rate constants were significantly improved (23.1%-352.0%, with an average improvement of 98.6%). This indicates that the PDI-coupled PMSO system developed in this study has the ability to produce H2O2 from resources, and the generated H2O2 can be applied to the degradation of new environmental pollutants.
[0101] Application Experiment 5: Tests in Different Water Bodies
[0102] The experiment of photocatalytic H2O2 production using the PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system described in Example 2 was conducted under different water conditions. The test method was the same as in Application Experiment 1, except that the photocatalytic reaction was carried out under different water conditions, including seawater, lake water, tap water, river water, and pure water.
[0103] Test results are as follows Figure 8 As shown, Figure 8 In the middle, the horizontal axis represents different water bodies; the left vertical axis represents the yield of H2O2.
[0104] The results showed that the systems containing PMSO pollutants (PMSO concentration of 10 mM) in different water bodies did not have a significant impact on the yield of H2O2, and all of them maintained a high level.
[0105] In summary, this invention couples perylene imide (PDI) supramolecular photocatalyst with methyl phenyl sulfoxide (PMSO) wastewater at a specific concentration ratio to obtain a PDI / PMSO composite photocatalytic system. This system promotes the separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs (reducing steady-state fluorescence intensity by 37%) and enhances electron conduction efficiency (increasing photocurrent by 1.8 times) through synergistic effects, while maintaining excellent cycling stability (yield remains above 80% after 10 cycles) and practical applicability in aquatic environments. This invention offers a simple and low-cost process, providing an integrated solution for the resource recovery of organic wastewater and the green synthesis and application of H2O2.
[0106] Experiments have demonstrated that the PDI / PMSO composite system performs excellently under different light sources, coexistence of different pollutants, and different water body conditions. In terms of pollutant degradation, the degradation rate constant is significantly improved compared to untreated H2O2 (23.1%-352.0%, with an average improvement of 98.6%). Therefore, it has broad application prospects in wastewater treatment, water reduction, and adsorption degradation.
