Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a kind of ionic liquid load metal framework organic compound composite dehumidifier and its preparation method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The energy consumption of air conditioning system is increasing day by day. In order to reduce energy consumption, many scholars have studied the temperature and humidity independent control system, in which the solid dehumidification air conditioning system is a kind of temperature and humidity independent control air conditioning system. The solid dehumidification air conditioning system combines the solid desiccant dehumidification device with the traditional refrigeration system (such as vapor compression refrigeration system, vapor absorption refrigeration system), and the dehumidification device realizes humidity control and the refrigeration system realizes temperature control. The solid dehumidification device usually uses low-grade energy (solar energy, waste heat, waste heat, etc.) as the driving energy, which greatly reduces the energy consumption and reduces environmental pollution. The solid dehumidification device can be divided into fixed bed type and rotary type, which uses the water absorption characteristics of solid desiccant to realize efficient control of humidity, and the physical properties of solid desiccant have an important influence on the dehumidification performance and regeneration performance of the system. Solid desiccant can be divided into physical desiccant (silica gel, activated carbon, zeolite, activated alumina, etc.) and chemical desiccant (LiCl, CaCl2, etc.), the former has a higher regeneration temperature and lower moisture absorption capacity; the latter has a strong moisture absorption capacity, but can cause equipment corrosion, thereby reducing the dehumidification capacity of the system. Therefore, scholars usually compound physical and chemical desiccants to prepare a composite that has the advantages of both: low regeneration temperature, high dehumidification capacity, and no corrosion of equipment, so as to ensure the normal operation of the dehumidification system. Therefore, it has become a research hotspot to develop a composite desiccant material with high moisture absorption capacity and low regeneration temperature to improve the efficiency of the dehumidification system.

[0003] The composite desiccant is generally a hygroscopic salt (such as LiCl, CaCl2, MgCl2, LiBr, etc.) impregnated into the pore structure of a porous desiccant. The hygroscopic salt usually has strong water absorption capacity, but it is easily soluble in water and unstable in nature, so a stable porous desiccant such as silica gel, activated carbon, molecular sieve, etc. is used as the matrix, which can greatly enhance the stability of the adsorbent. A new type of coordination polymer, metal organic framework material (MOFs), has gradually become a research hotspot, which has a large specific surface area and strong moisture absorption capacity.

[0004] Addition of hygroscopic salts in solid desiccants is an effective way to improve the adsorption performance of traditional porous adsorbents. Various composite adsorbents using modified silica-based matrices have been developed for dehumidification and have demonstrated significantly improved adsorption capacity. But the potential strong corrosive risk of these salts to metal components such as pipes and heat exchangers limits their practical application. Subsequently, organic weak acid salts such as potassium formate and sodium acetate are used to prepare composite adsorbents, but at the expense of adsorption capacity to some extent. Therefore, finding a material with high hydrophilicity and no corrosion is a necessary condition to achieve the goal of improving adsorption capacity and at the same time maintaining safety and stability. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to solve the problem of efficient and green dehumidification in current life and industry, the application provides a composite dehumidifier of ionic liquid loaded metal framework organic compound with low corrosion and efficient dehumidification function and a preparation method thereof.

[0006] In order to achieve the above application purposes, the application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] In the first aspect, the application provides a composite dehumidifier of ionic liquid loaded metal framework organic compound, which comprises a metal framework organic compound and ionic liquid loaded on the metal framework organic compound, the metal framework organic compound is MIL-101, and the ionic liquid is 1-ethyl acetate group-3-methyl imidazole tetrafluoroborate ([EOOEMIm][BF4]), wherein the mass ratio of the ionic liquid to the metal framework organic compound is 1:1-3:1.

[0008] As a preferred, the composite dehumidifier of ionic liquid loaded metal framework organic compound is composed of a metal framework organic compound and ionic liquid loaded on the metal framework organic compound.

[0009] In the second aspect, the application provides a preparation method of the composite dehumidifier of ionic liquid loaded metal framework organic compound, and the preparation method is implemented as follows:

[0010] Step one: dissolve the ionic liquid in deionized water, stir uniformly, and obtain an ionic liquid solution;

[0011] Step two: add the metal framework organic compound MIL-101 in the ionic liquid solution obtained in step one, and put it into an ultrasonic device for ultrasonic treatment to make it homogeneous;

[0012] Step three: transfer the fully dispersed mixture into a vacuum oven to completely evaporate the remaining water, and obtain the composite dehumidifier of ionic liquid loaded metal framework organic compound.

[0013] The metal framework organic matter MIL-101 described in the application can be prepared by the method reported in the prior art. Preferably, the metal framework organic matter is washed with N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and ethanol solvent respectively before loading the ionic liquid, and then dried after washing.

[0014] Preferably, in step one, the mass ratio of [EOOEMIm][BF4] to deionized water is 1:0.8-1.5, more preferably 1:1.

[0015] Preferably, in step one, the stirring condition is that the stirring speed of magnetic stirring is 300 r / min, the temperature is room temperature, and the time is 20 min.

[0016] Preferably, in step two, the temperature of the ultrasonic device is room temperature, and the ultrasonic time is 1-5 h. Within the time range, prolonging the ultrasonic time helps to improve the performance of the dehumidifier.

[0017] Preferably, in step three, the temperature of vacuum drying is 100-140℃, and the drying time is 10-15 h; more preferably, the temperature is 120℃, and the time is 12 h.

In general, the method of the application uses reagents that are easy to obtain, non-toxic and harmless, simple in process, and easy to mass produce and realize industrialization.

[0020] (2) The specific ester-functionalized imidazole ionic liquid adopted in the application has great dehumidification potential, but its melting point is low, viscosity is high, and mass transfer is poor. The application of the application overcomes the above limitations by impregnating the ionic liquid into the metal framework organic matter MIL-101 which has porous properties, large specific surface area, high porosity, controllable pore structure and adjustable pore surface to prepare a supported ionic liquid, greatly enhancing the water absorption capacity and successfully applying it to the field of water absorption related fields. The ionic liquid loaded activated carbon fiber composite dehumidifier prepared by the application has strong water absorption capacity, is green and non-corrosive when applied to dehumidification.

[0086] (2) Preparation of composite desiccant

[0087] [EOOEMIm][CI] was dissolved in deionized water (mass ratio 1:1), and stirred at room temperature with a magnetic stirrer (speed 300 r / min) for 20 min. MIL-101, a metal framework organic compound, was added to the solution (mass ratio of ionic liquid to MIL-101 was 1:1), and placed in an ultrasonic device for 1 h to make it homogeneous. The well-dispersed mixture was then transferred to a vacuum oven and dried at a temperature of 120°C for 12 h to completely evaporate the remaining water. The synthesized white solid was obtained and then ground into powder.

[0088] (3) The water absorption capacity of the composite desiccant was determined by a water absorption analyzer.

[0089] Under the reaction conditions of temperature 20°C, 60% RH, and adsorption time 6 h, the water absorption rate of the composite desiccant was 0.64 g / g. Under the reaction conditions of temperature 20°C, 80% RH, and adsorption time 24 h, the water absorption rate of the composite desiccant was 0.85 g / g.
