Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of activated carbon technology, specifically relating to a honeycomb activated carbon composite adsorption material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are a class of organic compounds characterized by low boiling points. The World Health Organization defines VOCs as various organic compounds with boiling points between 50 and 260°C at room temperature. VOCs have diverse sources and complex compositions, and most are toxic and carcinogenic, posing a serious threat to the ecological environment and human health. To reduce the harm of VOCs, many strategies and technologies have been developed to control VOC emissions, mainly divided into source control and end-of-pipe treatment. Due to current technological limitations and costs, eliminating VOC emissions at the source has had limited effectiveness; end-of-pipe treatment remains the most important aspect of controlling VOC emissions.

[0003] Adsorption is the most common end-of-pipe treatment technology for VOCs. It uses adsorption materials to physically and chemically interact with VOCs in waste gas, thereby achieving the purpose of enriching and separating VOCs. Due to its low cost-effectiveness, flexible operation and low energy consumption, adsorption is considered one of the most promising VOCs treatment technologies.

[0004] Common adsorbent materials include activated carbon, activated carbon fiber, diatomaceous earth, mesoporous silica, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), and molecular sieves. Activated carbon is an adsorbent material obtained by placing carbon-rich organic materials, such as coal, wood, fruit shells, coconut shells, walnut shells, apricot shells, and jujube shells, in an activation furnace and applying high temperature and pressure to convert them through pyrolysis. It is characterized by its low price and wide availability. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of crystalline hybrid porous materials formed by the self-assembly of metal ions or metal clusters with organic ligands. They have advantages that traditional porous materials such as activated carbon, zeolites, and molecular sieves cannot match, such as large specific surface area, high porosity, ordered pore structure, and diverse pore size and framework structure. At the same time, MOFs also have highly dispersed metal centers, which can serve as active sites for adsorption or catalysis. The application of MOFs combined with activated carbon in gas adsorption and separation is currently a research hotspot. For example, patent CN113908809A discloses an activated carbon embedded MOF adsorbent material, its preparation method, and its application. The preparation method provided by this patent uses in-situ synthesis technology to synthesize MOFs within the pores of activated carbon. The MOFs are used to adjust the pore size of the activated carbon to match the size of the adsorbate molecules, thereby improving its adsorption capacity. Patent CN112705167A discloses a method for preparing MOF-modified activated carbon bricks and their application in high-volume air filtration. The method involves dispersing the raw materials for preparing MOFs in a suitable solvent. After uniform dispersion, porous block activated carbon bricks are immersed in the dispersion and subjected to a MOF preparation reaction at a certain temperature. After the reaction is completed, the material is dried to obtain MOF-modified porous block activated carbon brick air filter material. The porous block activated carbon is a waterproof activated carbon brick with a honeycomb structure.

[0005] The above technology utilizes MOFs synthetic raw materials to produce composite adsorbent materials through in-situ reactions on the surface of activated carbon. On the one hand, it solves the problems of difficulty in direct blending of activated carbon and metal-organic framework materials, uneven mixing, stress concentration, and decreased mechanical properties. On the other hand, this composite adsorbent material can combine the adsorption advantages of MOFs and activated carbon, possessing strong adsorption capacity, especially exhibiting polarity selectivity for strongly polar organic VOCs such as organic sulfur, with large adsorption capacity and good adsorption performance. However, this type of composite adsorbent material prepared by in-situ reaction also has the following drawbacks: First, MOFs are crystalline, brittle, porous solid materials, and activated carbon itself is also a very brittle substance that is easily broken and pulverized. The in-situ generation of MOFs in activated carbon increases the number of stress concentration points in activated carbon, which is not conducive to improving the toughness of activated carbon. Second, because MOFs enhance the asymmetry and polarity of the charge density delocalization on the surface of activated carbon, the adsorption performance of the adsorbent material for non-polar organic compounds such as methane and butane deteriorates, and it does not have universal applicability to non-polar organic compounds. If the gas to be adsorbed and recovered changes or if there is a large content of non-polar gas in the gas to be adsorbed and recovered, the adsorbent material needs to be replaced in time, which will not only increase the workload, but also cause the emission and leakage of polluting gases in severe cases, and cannot achieve effective adsorption and recovery.

[0006] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a MOFs / activated carbon composite material that also has excellent adsorption capacity and adsorption ability for non-polar gases. Summary of the Invention

The exfoliated montmorillonite produces a new inorganic interface that exhibits good compatibility with activated carbon. The interface with attached MOFs has numerous adsorption sites without affecting the surface charge density of the activated carbon. The honeycomb activated carbon composite adsorbent material containing this modified montmorillonite demonstrates high adsorption capacity and excellent adsorption performance for both polar and non-polar VOCs.

[0079] The honeycomb activated carbon composite adsorbent materials prepared in the above embodiments and comparative examples were subjected to the following performance tests:

[0080] Compressive strength: Tested in accordance with standard GB / T 5072-2008.

[0081] Butane performance: The test was conducted according to the standard test method for determining the working capacity of activated carbon with butane, as specified in ASTM D5228-2016.

[0082] SO2 equilibrium adsorption capacity: SO2 adsorption performance was tested in a constant-temperature fixed-bed reactor with an inner diameter of 30 mm and a height of 500 mm. The flue gas consisted of N2, O2, SO2, and H2O. The flow rates of N2, O2, SO2, and H2O were controlled by flow meters. H2O was carried by N2 impacting a constant-temperature water bath. After the gases were mixed, they entered the reactor. The pipeline from the mixer to the reactor was insulated to ensure that H2O existed in gaseous form. 2 g of honeycomb activated carbon composite adsorption material (outer diameter 30 mm, length 5 mm) was placed on a fixed frame 250 mm above the bottom of the reactor, with its porous side facing the airflow. The flue gas contained 6% O2, 0.3% SO2, and 8% H2O by volume. N2 was used as the equilibrium gas. The gas flow rate was 400 mL / min, and the reactor temperature was 65 °C. The volume fraction of SO2 in the reactor outlet gas was measured online using a flue gas analyzer (Gasboard-3000). The amount of SO2 adsorbed by the honeycomb activated carbon composite adsorbent material was calculated using the SO2 breakthrough curve. The SO2 adsorption capacity was expressed as the amount of SO2 (mg) adsorbed per gram of honeycomb activated carbon.

[0085] As shown in Table 1, the compressive strength test results indicate that modified montmorillonite and activated carbon have good compatibility. The honeycomb activated carbon composite adsorbent containing this modified montmorillonite has high mechanical strength and exhibits excellent adsorption capacity for both polar and non-polar VOCs.

[0086] The test results of compressive strength, butane performance, and SO2 equilibrium adsorption capacity of Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 show that the mechanical properties of the honeycomb activated carbon with benzyltrimethylammonium chloride replacing hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride are significantly improved. It is speculated that benzyltrimethylammonium chloride is more likely to intercalate and exfoliate montmorillonite with MOFs already grown in situ, exposing more new interfaces with good compatibility with activated carbon. However, at the same time, since the exfoliation changes the internal pore structure of montmorillonite, its specific surface area decreases, which leads to a certain degree of decrease in butane performance and SO2 equilibrium adsorption capacity.

This embodiment is not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent implementations or modifications that do not depart from the present invention should be included within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
