Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of adsorption materials, and in particular relates to an iodate adsorption material, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] As an important clean energy in the 21st century, nuclear energy plays a key role in the global energy structure adjustment and carbon emission reduction strategy. With the large-scale construction and operation of nuclear power plants, the problem of radioactive wastewater treatment has become increasingly prominent. Among them, radioactive iodine ( 129 I and 131 I) is the most challenging to treat due to its special physical and chemical properties: first, iodine has significant environmental mobility and can diffuse widely through the water circulation system; second, iodide ions (I⁻) and iodates (IO3⁻) are highly soluble in water; more importantly, radioactive iodine is easily enriched in organisms and has a specific damaging effect on thyroid tissue.

[0003] In the field of radioactive wastewater treatment, iodine removal technology faces the following key scientific issues: (1) the diversity of iodine chemical forms, of which iodide ion (I⁻) and iodate (IO3⁻) are the two most common forms; (2) the removal mechanisms of different iodine forms vary significantly. Currently, silver-based adsorbents widely used in industry (such as AgX zeolite and silver-loaded activated carbon) show excellent selectivity for I⁻, which is attributed to the extremely low solubility product of AgI (Ksp=8.3×10⁻¹). 7 However, the removal efficiency of IO3⁻ by this material is limited due to the solubility of AgIO3 (Ksp=3.1×10⁻ 8 ) is relatively high, making it difficult to achieve deep purification.

[0004] According to the theory of hard and soft acids and bases, IO⁻⁻ is a typical hard base, capable of forming strong Coulombic interactions with small, high-valence hard acid metal cations, leading to their adsorption. However, these metal ions are prone to hydrolysis in aqueous solutions, forming hydroxyl complexes and even precipitation, making them unsuitable for direct use as water treatment agents. This contradiction raises a key technical challenge: how to construct a stable carrier-metal ion composite system that both preserves the active sites of the hard acid metal ions and prevents their hydrolysis and inactivation.

[0005] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0013] Preferably, after drying, the content of Zr in each gram of iodate adsorption material is 4+ The loading amount is 0.121~0.222 g.

[0014] Preferably, Zr is added 4+ The specific method for mixing the solution uniformly to react is: adding Zr 4+ After the solution is dissolved, stir at 25℃ for 4~6 hours, adjust the pH to 3.5~4.5, react at 40~55℃ for 4~6 hours and then overnight. During this reaction process, by slowly increasing the pH of the system, Zr 4+ It forms a stable bond with the carboxyl and amino groups on collagen fibers.

[0015] The third technical solution adopted by the present invention is; Use of the iodate adsorption material as described in any one of the first technical solutions or the iodate adsorption material obtained by the preparation method as described in any one of the second technical solutions in removing iodate from radioactive wastewater.

[0016] Preferably, a continuous column adsorption device is used. The schematic diagram of the column adsorption device used in the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 shown.

In the pH range of 2 to 11, Zr 4+ There is no leaching, and it has good acid and alkali stability, and can be used for a long time under acidic and alkaline conditions.

[0019] (3) The adsorption material obtained by the present invention has a large amount of Zr 4+ The coordinated hydroxide and iodate can react with Zr 4+ The coordinated hydroxide undergoes ion exchange, thereby adsorbing iodate.

[0020] (4) The adsorption material obtained by the present invention retains the bound water contained in the collagen fibers themselves, which helps to quickly transfer the radiation energy to the environmental medium, thereby giving it higher radiation stability and being suitable for the treatment of radioactive wastewater.
