Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of solid waste resource utilization and heavy metal contaminated water and soil remediation, and specifically relates to a method for preparing a hydrothermal biochar / geopolymer composite material, and the use of the prepared hydrothermal biochar / geopolymer composite material for adsorbing lead ions in water and in-situ passivating lead in soil. Background Art

[0002] Biochar is a stable, highly aromatic solid substance mainly composed of carbon, produced by thermochemical conversion of biomass raw materials such as straw, wood, livestock and poultry manure, and sludge under oxygen-free (limited) conditions. It also contains hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S), ash, and some trace elements. Currently, the preparation methods of biochar mainly include pyrolysis, gasification, and hydrothermal carbonization [1-3]. Due to its large specific surface area, rich oxygen-containing functional groups, loose and porous microstructure, high pH and CEC, and strong stability, biochar can adsorb and passivate heavy metals through surface complexation, precipitation, physical adsorption, and cation exchange. Therefore, it has broad application prospects in the adsorption and removal of heavy metals in water bodies and the passivation of heavy metals in soils [4-6]. However, the adsorption and passivation performance of raw biochar for heavy metals is not ideal, and it needs to be modified or combined with other materials [7].

[0003] Geopolymers, referred to as geopolymers, are a type of amorphous to semi-crystalline inorganic polymerized aluminosilicates produced by dissolution and polycondensation of siliceous and aluminous raw materials such as calcined clay minerals or fly ash under the action of a strong alkaline activator. 4- Tetrahedron and [AlO4] 5- The tetrahedrons are connected by covalent bonds formed by shared vertex oxygen atoms to form a zeolite-like porous anionic skeleton structure. The molecular structure can be abbreviated as R2O-Al2O3-SiO2-H2O (R = Na, K) [8]. The unique zeolite-like structure of geopolymers gives them ion exchange and adsorption properties similar to zeolites, and they also have good application potential in the treatment of heavy metal pollution in water and soil. Darmayanti et al. [9] reported that the structural order of sodium-type geopolymers is higher than that of potassium-type geopolymers, and therefore has higher Cu 2+ The adsorption capacity can reach 40 mg / g, and the adsorption process conforms to the Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-second-order kinetics. In addition, recent studies have found that geopolymers are converted into zeolites with higher structural order under certain hydrothermal reaction conditions, thereby improving their pore structure and adsorption performance [10,11]. The simultaneous preparation of hydrothermal biochar and hydrothermal conversion of geopolymers can not only utilize the alkaline environment of geopolymers to modify biochar, but also save energy, achieving two goals at one stroke.

[0004] Through a systematic review of a large number of domestic and foreign patents and literature, no relevant reports were found on hydrothermal biochar / geopolymer composites and their adsorption and removal of lead in water and in situ passivation of soil lead.
