TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of biomass charcoal materials, in particular to a furfural residue derived carbon material with an open pore structure, a preparation method and applications thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Industrial and agricultural production wastewater, hospital wastewater, domestic sewage and the like all contain a large amount of organic pollutants, most of which are macromolecular refractory organic matters such as polychlorinated biphenyls and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which seriously threaten the water ecological environment and human health. The use of adsorption technology can effectively remove organic pollutants in water, without secondary pollution, and is simple to operate and has good practical application prospects. Among them, the preparation of adsorbent materials is an important link in this technology, and the adsorbent not only has excellent adsorption performance, but also has the characteristics of wide raw material sources and low cost.
[0003] Furfural is an important platform compound, which is mainly obtained by acid hydrolysis of hemicellulose in biomass (including corn cob, corn straw, wheat straw, sugarcane residue, waste wood and the like). At present, most of the furfural residue is directly burned as low-energy fuel or discarded, which not only causes a certain burden on the environment, but also causes waste of resources. The main components of furfural residue are cellulose and lignin, and the carbon content is as high as 50%, which is an ideal precursor for preparing carbon materials. Using furfural residue as raw material to prepare porous carbon adsorbent materials and for removing organic pollutants in water can not only realize the high-value application of furfural residue and produce certain economic and social benefits, but also provide a new idea for preparing cheap and easily obtained adsorbent materials.
[0004] Furfural residue has a complex structure, and lignin and cellulose are interwoven together through various connection bonds (ether bond, ester bond, hydrogen bond and the like) to form a complex network structure. If direct pyrolysis carbonization is performed, serious polycondensation will occur, resulting in less pore structure of the obtained carbon material, which limits its application in the adsorption field. At present, there are many studies on preparing carbon adsorbent materials using furfural residue as a precursor, which are mostly focused on the construction of pore structure. Hu Xun et al. studied the influence of different potassium compounds (KCl, KOH, K2CO3 and K2C2O4) on the formation of pores in the process of pyrolysis carbonization of furfural residue, and the results showed that K2CO3 and K2C2O4 had good activation and pore-forming effects, and the specific surface area of the derived carbon could reach more than 1000 m 2 / g. Ma Pengyong et al. prepared furfural residue derived carbon using phosphoric acid as an activation and pore-forming agent, and the specific surface area of the prepared furfural residue derived carbon could reach 1769.4 m 2 / g, and the adsorption capacity of methylene blue could reach 486 mg / g. Han Xiuli et al. prepared furfural residue derived porous carbon by using steam activation to form pores, and the specific surface area of the prepared furfural residue derived porous carbon could reach 1662.41 m 2 / g. Chinese invention patent CN105174254A discloses a method for preparing activated carbon and furfural from corncob. The method comprises the following steps: preparing furfural from corncob by sulfuric acid hydrolysis, and then directly immersing the furfural residue into KOH solution, drying and carbonizing to obtain furfural residue derived porous carbon.
[0005] In summary, there are many methods for preparing furfural residue derived carbon adsorbent materials at present, and the obtained carbon materials have high specific surface area, but the pore structure is complex. The complex pore structure will greatly affect the mass transfer of organic matter in water, increase the mass transfer resistance, especially for macromolecular organic matter in water, such as macromolecular dyes and antibiotics, which is the main reason why the adsorption performance of the current furfural residue derived carbon for macromolecular organic matter is not ideal. On the other hand, in practical application, the adsorbent material is usually filled into a fixed bed device, and then the wastewater containing organic pollutants flows through the fixed bed to remove the pollutants in the water through the adsorption process. The contact time between the adsorbent material and the pollutants is short in this process, and the mass transfer resistance of the adsorbent material has a great influence on the removal effect. SUMMARY

[0034] In order to better understand the present application, the content of the present application is further illustrated below in combination with examples, but the content of the present application is not limited to the following examples.
[0035] A preparation method of a furfural residue derived carbon material with open pore structure, specifically comprising the following steps:
[0036] (1) The furfural residue and nano-MgO are added into an aqueous solution according to a mass ratio of 1:0.5-1:5 to configure a mixture aqueous solution with a mass concentration of 50 mg / mL, and ultrasonic dispersion is performed for 5-30 min to obtain a uniformly dispersed mixture aqueous solution.
[0037] In this step, the nano-MgO is not only a pH regulator, but also a structure directing agent and a template agent. If the mass ratio of the furfural residue to the nano-MgO is higher than 2, the pH of the aqueous solution is too low, the furfural residue cannot be well swelled, and the active functional groups are exposed too little, which affects the subsequent self-assembly process. In addition, if the amount of the nano-MgO is too small, the amount of the structure directing agent and the template agent is affected, and thus the improvement of the pore structure and the specific surface area of the carbon material is affected. If the mass ratio of the furfural residue to the nano-MgO is lower than 0.2, the concentration of MgO in the aqueous solution is too high, which leads to the agglomeration of Mg(OH)2 in the hydration process, and is not conducive to the formation of the open macroporous structure.
[0038] In this step, the mass concentration of the mixture aqueous solution is 50 mg / mL. If the concentration is too high, the subsequent volatile-induced self-assembly process is affected. If the concentration is too low, the pH of the aqueous solution is small after the hydration process, which is not conducive to the swelling of the furfural residue and the exposure of the active functional groups.
[0039] (2) The mixture aqueous solution is transferred to a heating stirring table, heated and stirred at 50-80℃, the stirring rate is 100-500 r / min, most of the water is removed by evaporation, the mixture solution becomes viscous, and then the stirring is stopped. Subsequently, the mixture is placed in an oven and dried at 90-110℃ to obtain a furfural residue / Mg(OH)2 composite solid powder.
[0040] In this step, MgO is first hydrated to form Mg(OH)2 in the volatile-induced self-assembly process, which increases the pH of the aqueous solution, swells the furfural residue, and exposes more active functional groups. In addition, the Mg(OH)2 formed by hydration is a small-particle-diameter nanosheet, and the surface contains a large number of hydroxyl groups. As a structure directing agent, the Mg(OH)2 nanosheet is combined with the furfural residue through hydrogen bonding to obtain an open macroporous structure formed by the cross of the nanosheets.
[0041] In this step, the mixture aqueous solution is heated at 50-80℃, so that the nano-MgO can be better hydrated to form small-particle-diameter Mg(OH)2 nanosheets. The increase in the pH of the solution and the generation of the structure directing agent are achieved at the same time. If the heating temperature is lower than 50℃, the nano-MgO is not completely hydrated, which affects the increase in the pH of the solution and the generation of the structure directing agent. If the heating temperature is higher than 80℃, the nano-MgO is hydrated too quickly, and the Mg(OH)2 nanosheets are easily agglomerated, which is not conducive to the generation of the structure directing agent and the subsequent self-assembly process.
[0042] In this step, the stirring rate is controlled at 100-500 r / min, and suitable stirring is conducive to uniform dispersion of the furfural residue and Mg(OH)2 nanosheets, and uniform self-assembly together with the volatilization of water.
[0043] (3) The furfural residue / Mg(OH)2 composite solid powder is transferred into a tube furnace, high-temperature carbonization is carried out under an inert gas atmosphere, the gas flow rate is controlled at 50-100 mL / min, the temperature rising rate is controlled at 8-15 ℃ / min, the temperature is raised to 600-800 ℃, and the carbonization time is 1-3 h. A furfural residue-derived carbon / MgO composite is obtained, and the composite obtained by carbonization is further added to a dilute acid solution with a concentration of 0.1-2 mol / L, stirred for several hours, then filtered, washed with water for multiple times, and dried in an oven at 100 ℃ for 8 h to obtain a furfural residue-derived carbon material with an open pore structure.
[0044] In this step, the furfural residue / Mg(OH)2 composite is calcined, the furfural residue is attached to the Mg(OH)2 nanosheets, a large pore structure of carbon nanosheet intersections is obtained after carbonization, Mg(OH)2 is decomposed to obtain MgO, which is attached to the carbon nanosheets as a hard template, and a large number of open microporous channels are left after acid washing; in addition, the water vapor generated by the decomposition of Mg(OH)2 has the effect of gas phase stripping, preventing the furfural residue from polycondensing during pyrolysis and being conducive to the formation of pores.
[0045] In this step, the carbonization temperature is required to be in the range of 600-800 ℃, and the time is 1-3 h. If the temperature is too low or the time is too short, the furfural residue may not be completely carbonized, and if the temperature is too high or the time is too long, the cost is increased, and more surface functional groups of the carbon material are decomposed, which is not conducive to the adsorption of organic matter.
[0046] In this step, the concentration of the dilute acid solution is required to be in the range of 0.1-2 mol / L, and the acid washing time is controlled to be more than 1 h. If the acid concentration is too low or the time is too short, too much MgO residue will be left, and the pore structure will be less, which is not conducive to the application as an adsorbent, and if the acid concentration is too high, the cost is increased.
[0047] The furfural residue-derived carbon material with an open pore structure prepared by the method of the present application has a specific surface area in the range of 800-1700 m 2 / g, and a wide pore size distribution, with a large number of pores from 0.1 nm to 100 nm, showing an obvious open pore structure formed by the intersection of two-dimensional porous nanosheets.
[0048] The furfural residue-derived carbon material with an open pore structure prepared by the method of the present application can be used to remove organic pollutants in water, especially macromolecular organic pollutants, and also has good adsorption performance.
[0049] MgO is hydrated to Mg(OH)2, which increases the pH of the solution, and the lignin and cellulose in the furfural residue swell, exposing a large number of active functional groups such as methoxyl groups and phenolic hydroxyl groups; the Mg(OH)2 generated by hydration is a small piece of nanosheet, and the surface contains a large number of hydroxyl functional groups, which can form strong hydrogen bonds with the active functional groups in the furfural residue; in the process of water evaporation, the furfural residue is attached to the nanosheet and further cross-linked to form an open macroporous structure; after carbonization, a carbon nanosheet cross-linked pore structure is obtained, and at the same time, the Mg(OH)2 is decomposed into nano-MgO particles and water vapor, which has a gas-phase stripping effect, and the MgO nano-particles are attached to the carbon nanosheet, and after acid washing, a large number of open microporous structures are obtained.

[0098] <adsorption performance comparison>
[0099] The implementation effect is explained: table 1 is the adsorption performance evaluation data of rhodamine B and tylosin of the examples and comparative examples of the application.
[0100]
[0101] As can be seen from the data of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Example 1 in Table 1, in the simulated fixed bed adsorption experiment, the furfural residue derived carbon with open pore structure prepared in the examples of the present application has better adsorption performance on rhodamine B and tylosin than the commercial activated carbon. Especially for the macromolecular pollutant tylosin, the adsorption capacity of the furfural residue derived carbon obtained in Example 1 is 10 times that of the carbon material in Comparative Example 1. This is because the furfural residue derived carbon obtained in the examples has an open porous structure, which can not only give the carbon material a high specific surface area to provide a large number of adsorption sites, but also facilitate mass transfer. The specific surface area of the commercial activated carbon is small, and the pore channel is complex, which is not conducive to the adsorption of organic matter in water, especially macromolecular organic matter.
[0102] As can be seen from the data of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 2 and 3 in Table 1, in the simulated fixed bed adsorption experiment, the furfural residue derived carbon with open pore structure prepared in the examples of the present application has better adsorption performance on rhodamine B and tylosin than the common furfural residue derived porous carbon prepared by KOH and zinc chloride activation method. This is because the furfural residue derived carbon prepared by the common activation method is mainly microporous. Although it has a high specific surface area and can provide adsorption sites, the mass transfer resistance is large compared with the furfural residue derived carbon with open pore structure.
[0103] As can be seen from the data of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Example 4 in Table 1, in the simulated fixed bed adsorption experiment, the furfural residue derived carbon with open pore structure prepared in the examples of the present application has better adsorption performance on rhodamine B and tylosin than the furfural residue derived mesoporous carbon prepared by hard template method. This is because the furfural residue derived carbon prepared by the hard template method is mainly uniform mesoporous. The single mesoporous structure cannot provide a high specific surface area, resulting in insufficient adsorption sites, and part of the pore structure is embedded in the material, which has a large mass transfer resistance.
[0104] As can be seen from the data of Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 5 and 6 in Table 1, in the simulated fixed bed adsorption experiment, the furfural residue derived carbon with open pore structure prepared in the examples of the present application has better adsorption performance on rhodamine B and tylosin than the porous carbon prepared by using phenol and chitosan as carbon source. This is because the lignin and cellulose in the furfural residue are intertwined to form a three-dimensional network structure. During the hydration of nanometer magnesium oxide, the swelling occurs with the increase of pH, which exposes a large number of hydroxyl functional groups, and further self-assembles with the magnesium hydroxide nanosheets obtained by hydration, and the open porous structure is obtained after carbonization and washing away the template. Phenol and chitosan do not have such structural characteristics and cannot form similar open porous structure.

It needs to be understood that the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, and various modifications or changes can be made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the claims, which do not affect the essence of the present application.
