Abstract

This invention discloses a method for removing white phosphorus from soil. First, contaminated soil is mixed evenly with water, stirred, and then nitric acid solution is added. After stirring, a phosphorus removal agent is added, and stirring continues. The mixture is then filtered, freeze-dried, and the phosphorus removal agent is removed using a magnetic sieve to obtain treated soil. The phosphorus removal agent contains nano-ferric oxide, allowing it to separate from the soil via magnetic attraction after treating the white phosphorus, reducing the difficulty of separation and enabling reuse. The soil is treated with nitric acid, causing the white phosphorus to react with the nitric acid to produce phosphate ions. The addition of the phosphorus removal agent releases lanthanum carbonate from the surface. Lanthanum has strong Lewis acidity and can form strong ligands with phosphate, which has Lewis basicity, to adsorb phosphate ions from the soil, thus forming a complex. Simultaneously, the free amino groups on the chitosan surface can adsorb metals, further completing the adsorption of the complex.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention: This invention discloses a method for removing white phosphorus from soil. First, contaminated soil is mixed evenly with water, stirred, and nitric acid solution is added. After stirring, a phosphorus removal agent is added, and stirring continues. The mixture is then filtered and freeze-dried, and the phosphorus removal agent is removed using a magnetic sieve to obtain treated soil. The phosphorus removal agent is made from ferric sulfate heptahydrate and bentonite. Nano-ferric oxide is introduced into the interlayer of intercalated bentonite through co-precipitation to obtain pretreated bentonite. Acrylic acid, methyl methacrylate, and butyl acrylate are polymerized and added to the pretreated bentonite, resulting in a polyacrylate coating on the surface of the pretreated bentonite, thus obtaining modified bentonite. The modified bentonite is then dehydrated and condensed with chitosan, causing the carboxyl groups on the modified bentonite to react with some of the amino groups on the chitosan, resulting in a pretreated matrix. The pretreated matrix is ​​mixed with chitosan, and glutaraldehyde is added to the surface of the pretreated matrix. The chitosan on the surface is cross-linked with the added chitosan, forming microspheres on the surface to obtain a modified matrix. The modified matrix is ​​mixed with lanthanum chloride heptahydrate, and lanthanum carbonate is loaded on the surface of the modified matrix through the action of sodium carbonate to obtain a treatment agent. The phosphorus removal agent contains nano-iron oxide, which allows the phosphorus removal agent to separate from the soil by magnetic adsorption after treating white phosphorus in the soil, reducing the difficulty of separation and enabling reuse. The soil is treated with nitric acid, which causes the white phosphorus in the soil to react with nitric acid to produce phosphate ions. Then, the phosphorus removal agent is added, and the lanthanum carbonate on the surface is released. Lanthanum has strong Lewis acidity and can form strong ligand adsorption with phosphate, which has Lewis basicity, to form a complex and adsorb phosphate ions in the soil. At the same time, the free amino groups on the chitosan on the surface can adsorb metals, thus completing the treatment by adsorbing the complex. Detailed Implementation
