Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of functional materials, and in particular relates to a modified metal mesh membrane with a surface self-cleaning function for separating crude oil / seawater mixtures and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Frequent oil spills during offshore oil exploration, production, and transportation not only severely waste scarce petroleum resources but also cause severe damage to the marine ecosystem when large amounts of oily wastewater enter the ocean. Membrane separation technology has attracted widespread attention in the field of oily wastewater separation and treatment due to its advantages such as low cost, low energy consumption, and simple process flow. While membrane separation is relatively easy to achieve for the separation of heavy oil / water mixtures and light oil / water mixtures, the effective and sustainable separation of highly viscous crude oil / water mixtures is more challenging. While the construction of superwetting membrane materials can address the problem of oil contamination on the membrane surface to a certain extent, highly viscous crude oil inevitably clogs the membrane surface and pores during oil-water separation and long-term membrane operation, resulting in a sharp drop in membrane separation flux, thereby compromising oil-water separation efficiency and sustainability, and significantly shortening the membrane's service life. This presents a major challenge to be addressed in the practical application of membrane technology for oil-water separation. Therefore, the development of membrane materials that can efficiently separate highly viscous crude oil / water mixtures and possess surface-adherent self-cleaning properties is of great significance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a modified metal mesh membrane with surface self-cleaning function for separating high-viscosity crude oil / seawater mixtures and a preparation method thereof, which has practical application prospects.

[0004] The method for preparing the modified metal mesh membrane with surface self-cleaning function of the present invention is specifically carried out according to the following steps:

[0005] (1) A metal mesh substrate (including but not limited to stainless steel mesh and copper mesh) is cut into corresponding sizes as required, placed in an ethanol solution for ultrasonic cleaning, and then immersed in a tris (hydroxymethyl)aminomethane hydrochloride buffer solution (pH = 8.7) containing dopamine. The solution is heated and shaken at 50-70°C for 24 hours to allow the dopamine to uniformly self-polymerize into a polypolyamine layer on the surface of the metal mesh substrate. The polydopamine-coated metal mesh substrate is removed, cleaned with deionized water and ethanol, and then dried for later use.

[0006] Wherein, the concentration of dopamine in the buffer solution is 1-2 mg / mL.

[0007] (2) Zirconium tetrachloride and 2-aminoterephthalic acid were added to 50 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide solvent, and a certain volume of acetic acid was added, and the mixture was ultrasonically mixed to obtain solution 1. At the same time, 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride and N-hydroxysuccinimide were ultrasonically dissolved in 10 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide solvent to obtain solution 2.

[0008] The molar ratio of zirconium tetrachloride to 2-aminoterephthalic acid is 1:1, the total molar amount of zirconium tetrachloride and 2-aminoterephthalic acid is 1-3 mmol, and the molar volume ratio of zirconium tetrachloride to acetic acid is 1 mmol:6 mL.

[0009] The mass ratio of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride and N-hydroxysuccinimide is 1:1, and the concentrations of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride and N-hydroxysuccinimide in N,N-dimethylformamide solvent are both 0.005-0.01 mg / mL.

[0010] (3) The two solutions prepared in step (2) are mixed evenly, and then transferred to a reactor, and tetracarboxyphenylporphyrin (TCPP) is added. At the same time, the polydopamine-coated metal mesh substrate obtained in step (1) is immersed in the reactor. The reactor is heated in an oven at 120° C. for 24 hours. After the reaction is completed, the metal mesh is taken out, washed with ethanol and dried to obtain a TCPP-doped UiO-66-NH2-modified metal mesh.

[0011] Wherein, the volume ratio of solution 1 to solution 2 is 53-59:10;

[0012] The mass molar ratio of TCPP to zirconium tetrachloride is 10-45 mg:1 mmol, and the TCPP-doped UiO-66-NH2 material in situ grown on the surface of the metal mesh accounts for 3-9% of the mass of the metal mesh substrate.

[0013] The technical effects of the present invention are:

[0014] (1) The surface of the modified metal mesh membrane prepared by the present invention is in situ grown with TCPP-doped UiO-66-NH2 material, which constructs a surface micro-nano rough structure and provides a large number of hydrophilic groups (hydroxyl and amino groups), so that the membrane exhibits super wettability. During oil-water separation, the water phase can pass through the membrane, while the oil phase is efficiently blocked on the other side of the membrane, showing higher oil-water separation efficiency and separation flux. Due to its underwater super oleophobic properties, a hydration layer can be formed on the membrane surface, which gives the membrane a certain anti-oil adhesion ability. The prepared modified metal mesh membrane has practical application prospects in treating wastewater containing highly viscous crude oil.

[0015] (2) TCPP-doped UiO-66-NH2 material is in situ grown on the surface of the modified metal mesh prepared by the present invention. TCPP is doped as a mixed organic ligand for preparing UiO-66-NH2 and is also doped by connecting with UiO-66-NH2 through an amide bond. TCPP has a conjugated macrocyclic π-electronic structure and visible light influencing ability. Its addition can not only expand the light absorption range, but also serve as an electron channel to improve the separation rate of photogenerated carriers in UiO-66-NH2. In addition, TCPP can generate singlet oxygen under light, enriching the types of active oxygen species, and has photothermal conversion ability, reducing the viscosity of crude oil adhered to the membrane surface. In view of the above advantages, the prepared modified metal mesh has excellent photocatalytic synergistic photothermal self-cleaning function for high-viscosity crude oil adhered to the surface during long-term use.

[0017] Figure 2 This is a diagram of the oil-water separation device constructed as described in Example 2 of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0019] Example 1

[0020] 1. Preparation of modified metal mesh membrane

[0021] (1) A 300-mesh stainless steel mesh was cut into a circular shape with a diameter of 2R = 6 cm, placed in an ethanol solution for ultrasonic cleaning (power 40 Hz, ultrasonic time 10 minutes), and then immersed in a tris (hydroxymethyl)aminomethane hydrochloride buffer solution (pH = 8.7) containing dopamine at a dopamine concentration of 1 mg / mL. The mesh was heated and shaken at 70°C for 24 hours to allow the dopamine to uniformly self-polymerize into a polypolyamine layer on the surface of the stainless steel mesh substrate. The polydopamine-coated stainless steel mesh substrate was removed, cleaned with deionized water and ethanol, and dried for later use.

[0022] (2) Add 0.5 mmol of zirconium tetrachloride and 0.5 mmol of 2-aminoterephthalic acid to 50 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide solvent, then add 3 mL of acetic acid and mix thoroughly by ultrasonication. Simultaneously, dissolve 0.05 mg of 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride and 0.05 mg of N-hydroxysuccinimide in 10 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide solvent by ultrasonication.

[0023] (3) The two solutions prepared in step (2) were mixed evenly, and then transferred to a reactor, and 15 mg of tetracarboxyphenylporphyrin (TCPP) was added. At the same time, the polydopamine-coated stainless steel substrate obtained in step (1) was immersed in the reactor. The reactor was heated in an oven at 120° C. for 24 hours. After the reaction was completed, the stainless steel mesh was taken out, washed with ethanol and dried to obtain a TCPP-doped UiO-66-NH2-modified stainless steel mesh. The TCPP-doped UiO-66-NH2 material in situ grown on the surface of the stainless steel mesh accounted for 3% of the mass of the metal mesh substrate.

[0024] 2. Separation process of high-viscosity crude oil / seawater mixture and self-cleaning process of membrane surface

[0025] The prepared modified stainless steel mesh was first moistened with water and then placed between the constructed oil-water separation devices. A high-viscosity crude oil / seawater mixture (the crude oil viscosity was 2×10 5 mPa s), the separation process is completed only by gravity. The flux (F) is calculated as follows: F = V / (S×Δt), where V (L), S (m 2 ), Δt(h) are the filtration volume, membrane effective filtration area, and separation time, respectively. The separation efficiency is calculated as follows: η = m1 / m0 × 100%, where m1 and m0 are the mass of seawater before and after separation, respectively. The calculated flux is 49673 L m -2 h -1 , the separation efficiency is 99.5%.

[0026] The initial pure water flux of the modified stainless steel mesh membrane for separating highly viscous crude oil / seawater mixture was measured. The crude oil contaminated mesh membrane was then preliminarily cleaned with deionized water. The cleaned modified stainless steel mesh membrane was placed under simulated sunlight to initiate the photocatalytic reaction (0.3 W·cm -2 Xenon lamp irradiation was used to photothermally degrade the crude oil remaining on the membrane surface and in its pore structure. The pure water flux was measured every two minutes, and after 12 minutes, the flux recovery rate reached 100%, completing the membrane surface self-cleaning process.
