Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of water treatment, in particular to a cathode composite membrane and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Chlorophenols (CPs) are a kind of environmental endocrine disruptors, which exist in water bodies as fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, and intermediates in the production of dyes and pharmaceuticals. Although CPs only exist in trace amounts in water bodies, with concentration distribution in μg / L or even ng / L, CPs can accumulate in the body through bioaccumulation after entering the human body, and then affect the human adrenaline level, leading to human metabolic disorders and harming the health of the body. Therefore, the removal of CPs has very important practical significance.

[0003] Advanced oxidation technology (AOPs) is a new water treatment technology in recent years, which mainly produces strong oxidizing free radicals through catalytic oxidation of electricity, light, ultrasound, etc., and then attacks organic pollutants, and converts the refractory organic pollutants into CO2, H2O and other low-toxicity small molecular substances. AOPs has strong oxidation ability and fast reaction rate, and is often used to remove CPs. Traditional homogeneous Fenton belongs to one of AOPs, which has the advantages of simple operation and low requirement for external equipment, but it cannot work in neutral or alkaline water environment, and a certain amount of iron sludge will be produced, which limits the wide use of homogeneous Fenton. In view of this, the traditional homogeneous electric Fenton technology uses the advantages brought by the combination of electro-catalysis and Fenton reaction to alleviate the generation of iron sludge, but the problem of narrow pH application range still exists. In order to solve the above problem of narrow pH range, heterogeneous electric Fenton has been widely used in water treatment technology in recent years. Heterogeneous electric Fenton technology is to replace Fe2+ in homogeneous electric Fenton with heterogeneous Fenton catalysts mainly composed of iron oxides, which can not only alleviate the generation of iron sludge, but also expand the pH range, and has become a hot spot in the field of sewage treatment. 2+ Because this technology can not only alleviate the generation of iron sludge, but also expand the pH range, it has become a hot spot in the field of sewage treatment.

[0004] Heterogeneous electro-Fenton catalysts are usually Fe3O4, Fe2O3, FeS2 and the like, and such catalysts usually work by single Fe cation, while FeVO4 as a bidirectional catalyst, both Fe cation and vanadate anion have catalytic activity, and has higher catalytic activity than other traditional catalysts. Since FeVO4 is a loose, water-soluble powder, it needs to be loaded on a carrier for use. The cathode carrier has metal electrodes such as Ti and Pt, however, such electrodes have strong conductivity, but low H2O2 production performance, and have not attracted widespread attention; CNTs can improve the generation rate of H2O2 due to high catalytic activity, high conductivity and high specific surface area, and can be used as an excellent carrier for catalysts. In addition, further loading of noble metals on the cathode can effectively promote the generation of active hydrogen, so that the composite material exhibits excellent dehalogenation effect in the process of treating halogen-containing pollutants. However, the traditional cathode composite film is usually prepared by loading the catalyst on a plate electrode, and in the batch operation mode, there is usually a hydraulic diffusion layer with a thickness of about 100 μm on the surface of the electrode, which causes diffusion limitation in the mass transfer process. SUMMARY
