Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical industry and environmental protection, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a coated nano zero-valent iron-loaded zinc-manganese-nickel composite material from phosphating slag and co-producing ammonium dihydrogen phosphate. Background Art

[0002] Global environmental pollution and resource shortages are becoming increasingly severe, threatening human survival. Phosphating slag is waste residue generated during the phosphating treatment of metal surfaces in the automotive, shipbuilding, military, and machinery manufacturing industries. Phosphating metal materials is an essential step in metal processing, and phosphating slag production is substantial, reaching millions of tons annually nationwide. Phosphating slag contains 15-20% iron, approximately 50% phosphate (phosphate), and 5-8% zinc. Depending on the phosphating solution used, it also contains small amounts of Mn and Ni ions and other insoluble matter. Its complex composition makes it difficult to handle, and most companies resort to dumping or landfilling it, resulting in a waste of resources, particularly non-renewable phosphorus, and severe environmental pollution. Extracting resources from phosphating slag and converting it into valuable chemical products while reducing pollution is of great significance.

[0003] Nano-zero-valent iron has shown excellent performance in solving organic pollution, heavy metal pollution and environmental pollution remediation. However, due to its magnetic attraction, nano-zero-valent iron particles are prone to agglomeration. Due to its extremely strong reducibility, it is easily oxidized, resulting in reduced activity and limited application. Most existing technologies use iron salts and NaBH4 to react to prepare nano-zero-valent iron, which is relatively expensive. Due to the combined effect of nano-iron and other metals and the interaction between the components, adding other metals to nano-zero-valent iron metal materials can enhance its reactivity, dispersibility and stability. There are no reports on the use of metals such as iron, zinc, manganese and nickel in solid waste phosphating slag to prepare zero-valent nano-iron-loaded zinc-manganese-nickel composite materials with good dispersibility, high activity and stability through reduction reaction, and converting the phosphate therein into ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, turning waste into treasure and eliminating pollution. At the same time, coating and modifying the surface of the nano-iron-loaded zinc-manganese-nickel metal composite material can further improve its stability and enhance the use effect. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a method for preparing a coated nano-zero-valent iron-loaded zinc-manganese-nickel composite material from phosphating slag and co-producing ammonium dihydrogen phosphate.

The nano-zero-valent iron-loaded zinc-manganese-nickel particles are washed with deionized water and ethanol respectively, dispersed in ethanol, and a deionized water solution of a polymer material is added. The mixture is stirred for 1-2 hours, magnetically separated, washed, and vacuum dried to obtain a coated nano-zero-valent iron-loaded zinc-manganese-nickel composite material; an appropriate amount of phosphoric acid is added to the supernatant, heated for reaction and distilled until no formic acid is distilled out, the pH is adjusted to 4-5 with concentrated ammonia water, and concentrated to obtain ammonium dihydrogen phosphate.
