Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of water treatment technology, and more specifically, relates to a method for treating organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater. Background Technology
[0002] Fenton technology is widely used for the oxidative degradation of new pollutants in wastewater because it can generate highly reactive hydroxyl radicals (·OH, E0 = 2.8V).
[0003] Much research and technology has focused on heterogeneous catalysts based on variable-valence metals such as iron, copper, and cobalt, utilizing the redox cycle of metal catalytic sites to activate oxidants. However, during the variable-valence process, metals are prone to precipitation, causing secondary pollution, and the induced free radical process is easily affected by coexisting ions and organic matter.
[0004] Wastewater often contains a large number of inorganic anions, among which chloride ions are the most common. The oxidative degradation of new pollutants in chlorine-containing industrial wastewater has always been an industry challenge in the water treatment field.
[0005] Aluminum metal oxides, especially activated alumina, have a large specific surface area and porosity. The Al sites, as strong Lewis acid sites, can coordinate and complex inorganic anions such as fluoride ions and arsenate ions.
[0006] In related technologies, such as Chinese patent document CN109718771B, a bimetallic doped alumina aerogel and its preparation and use method are provided. The method discloses that the alumina aerogel can obtain excellent catalytic activity by loading a small amount of transition metal.
[0007] In related technologies, alumina is used as a carrier, and Al2O3 plays a major role in the removal of organic matter. Al2O3 acts only as an inert carrier, and the active sites are generally controlled by other metal sites. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The summary section of this application is intended to provide a brief overview of the concepts, which will be described in detail in the detailed description section below. This summary section is not intended to identify key or essential features of the claimed technical solutions, nor is it intended to limit the scope of the claimed technical solutions.
[0009] Some embodiments of this application propose a method for treating organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background section above.
[0010] This invention addresses the technical problem that Al2O3 is only used as an inert carrier and the active sites are generally controlled by other metal sites. It provides a method for treating organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater, comprising the following steps: mixing organic pollutants, an oxidant and chlorine-containing wastewater to obtain a reaction solution; adjusting the initial pH value of the reaction solution; and adding active aluminum-based oxides to the reaction solution.
[0011] Furthermore, active aluminum-based oxides include active alumina.
[0012] Furthermore, methods for preparing activated alumina include co-precipitation, sol-gel, and gas-phase methods.
[0013] Furthermore, the specific surface area of activated alumina ranges from 100 m². 2 / g to 300m 2 / g; the oxygen content of surface hydroxyl groups accounts for 30% to 60% of the total oxygen content of activated alumina.
[0014] Furthermore, the dosage of activated alumina ranges from 0.50 g / L to 1.50 g / L, and is preferably 1.0 g / L based on the total volume of the reaction solution.
[0015] Furthermore, mixing the organic pollutants, oxidant, and chlorine-containing wastewater involves adjusting the pH of the reaction solution, with the pH ranging from 3.0 to 7.0. Preferably, the initial pH is 3.0.
[0016] Furthermore, the oxidizing agent is any one or a combination of persulfate, perdisulfate, peracetic acid, and hydrogen peroxide. Persulfate is preferred.
[0017] Furthermore, the molar ratio of organic pollutants to oxidant in the reactants is from 1:10 to 1:1. Preferably, it is 1:10.
[0018] Furthermore, the chloride ion concentration in the chlorine-containing wastewater is greater than or equal to 1.0 mM. Preferably, it is between 1.0 mM and 500.0 mM. More preferably, it is 250.0 mM.
[0019] Furthermore, organic pollutants include one or more of the following: phenols, amino acids, sulfonamides, or sulfoxides.
[0020] Furthermore, the organic pollutants include one or more of o-methylphenol, carbamazepine, sulfamethoxazole, or methyl phenyl sulfoxide.
[0021] The beneficial effect of this application is that it provides a method for improving the treatment of organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater.
[0022] More specifically, some embodiments of this application may produce the following specific beneficial effects:
[0023] Active aluminum-based oxides, especially active alumina as a heterogeneous Fenton-like catalyst, form surface complexes by coordinating oxidant anions within the inner spheres, which then react with coexisting chloride ions to generate active species such as free chlorine, singlet oxygen, hydroxyl radicals, and sulfate radicals.
[0024] The reaction process does not involve the redox cycle of metal catalytic sites, and the metal ions are stable and not easily precipitated; aluminum ions also have less biotoxicity compared to heavy metal ions such as cobalt and copper.
[0025] The main active species in this application are free chlorine, singlet oxygen, etc. These active species have strong selectivity for electron-rich pollutants, giving the invention a more controllable catalytic oxidation scenario and high oxidant utilization efficiency.
[0026] In addition to its ability to degrade organic pollutants, it also has a strong bactericidal activity against various pathogens in the effluent, preventing bacterial regeneration. Attached Figure Description

[0049] Homogeneous Fenton reactions have several drawbacks in application, such as high susceptibility to environmental substrates, narrow pH range, and the tendency to generate large amounts of iron sludge. To overcome these drawbacks, much research and technology has focused on heterogeneous catalysts based on variable-valence metals such as iron, copper, and cobalt. These catalysts utilize the redox cycle of metal catalytic sites to activate the oxidant. However, the metal valence cycle inevitably leads to the precipitation of metal ions, causing secondary pollution of water bodies. Moreover, the induced free radical process is greatly affected by the coexisting substrate, resulting in low oxidant utilization efficiency (Environ. Sci. Technol. 2023, 57, 4266-4275; Environ. Sci. Technol. 2022, 56, 15, 10710-10720).
[0050] Fenton-like catalysts, such as iron oxide, copper oxide, and cobalt oxide, release heavy metal ions during use, causing secondary pollution to water bodies. Additionally, in general induced free radical processes, free radicals react with chloride ions to generate less reactive chlorine free radicals and chlorohydroxyl free radicals, thus affecting the reaction rate.
[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, one embodiment of this application describes a method for treating organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater. The method includes the following steps:
[0052] S100: Organic pollutants, oxidants and chlorine-containing wastewater are mixed to obtain a reaction solution.
[0053] S200: Adjusts the initial pH value of the reaction solution;
[0054] S300: Add active aluminum-based oxides to the reaction solution;
[0055] Among them, active aluminum-based oxides include active alumina.
[0056] In this application, aluminum metal oxides, particularly activated alumina, possess a large specific surface area and porosity (Environ. Sci. Technol. 2018, 52, 2, 581-588). The Al sites, as strong Lewis acid sites, can coordinate and complex inorganic anions such as fluoride and arsenate. However, in advanced oxidation fields, existing technologies generally use them as stable supports, with active sites typically controlled by other metal sites. For example, Ahn et al. used Al₂O₃ as a support to load precious metals such as Pd and Pt to activate persulfate, thereby degrading organic matter. In this study, Al₂O₃ was only used as an inert support (Environ. Sci. Technol. 2016, 50, 10187-10197). The application of aluminum-based metal oxides directly as Fenton-like catalysts, utilizing their coordination and complexation with oxidants to enhance pollutant degradation, has not yet been reported.
[0057] Methods for preparing active aluminum-based oxides include co-precipitation, sol-gel, and gas-phase methods. Co-precipitation is preferred, and its general steps are as follows:
[0058] ① Solution preparation: Dissolve an appropriate amount of aluminum salt (such as aluminum nitrate, aluminum sulfate, etc.) and alkaline precipitant (such as ammonia, ammonium bicarbonate, etc.) in a suitable solvent according to a certain molar ratio to form two reactant solutions.
[0059] ② Mixing reactant solutions: Slowly add the aluminum salt solution dropwise to the alkaline precipitant solution while stirring the solution to ensure that the two solutions are fully mixed.
[0060] ③Precipitation formation: As the reaction between aluminum salt and alkaline precipitant proceeds, a precipitate is formed, ensuring that the pH value of the reaction solution is within the appropriate range (8-10).
[0061] ④ Calcination treatment: The obtained precipitate is calcined and heated to 600-900℃ for 3 hours, washed repeatedly with water 6 times and vacuum dried to obtain the desired active aluminum-based oxide.
[0062] The specific surface area of activated alumina ranges from 100 m². 2 / g to 300m 2 / g; the oxygen content of surface hydroxyl groups accounts for 30% to 60% of the total oxygen content of activated alumina;
[0063] The dosage of activated alumina ranges from 0.50 g / L to 1.50 g / L.
[0064] The oxidizing agent is any one or a combination of persulfate, perdisulfate, peracetic acid, and hydrogen peroxide. The persulfate can be a commercially available compound salt, such as sodium persulfate compound salt or potassium persulfate compound salt.
[0065] The molar ratio of organic pollutants to oxidant in the reactants is 1:10 to 1:1.
[0066] The chloride ion concentration in the chlorine-containing wastewater is greater than or equal to 1.0 mM.
[0067] Wastewater often contains a large number of inorganic anions, among which chloride ions are the most common. The oxidative degradation of new pollutants in chlorinated industrial wastewater has always been an industry challenge in water treatment. This is because the free radicals generated during the Fenton / Fenton-like reaction can react with chloride ions to form chloride free radicals (·Cl, E0 = 2.5V), which have weaker redox capabilities. This not only leads to the ineffective loss of active free radicals but also produces chlorination disinfection byproducts, seriously endangering the ecological safety of water bodies.
[0068] like Figure 2 As shown, another embodiment of the method for treating organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater according to this application specifically includes the following steps:
[0069] S210: Organic pollutants, oxidants and chlorine-containing wastewater are mixed to obtain a reaction solution.
[0070] S220: Adjusts the initial pH of the reaction solution to between 3.0 and 7.0.
[0071] S230: Add active aluminum-based oxides to the reaction solution.
[0072] The pH value of the reaction solution can be adjusted either before or after the addition of the aluminum-based oxide.
[0073] Organic pollutants include phenols, amino acids, sulfonamides, and sulfoxides.
[0074] Furthermore, the pollutants include o-methylphenol, carbamazepine, sulfamethoxazole, and methyl phenyl sulfoxide.
[0075] The present application will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0076] Example 1
[0077] Four reaction systems were designed: activated alumina / hydrogen peroxide / chloride ions, activated alumina / persulfate / chloride ions, activated alumina / peracetic acid / chloride ions, and activated alumina / permonosulfate / chloride ions. The mixed solutions contained carbamazepine at a concentration of 10 μM, activated alumina at a dosage of 1.0 g / L, hydrogen peroxide at a concentration of 10 mM, permonosulfate / persulfate / peracetic acid at a concentration of 40 μM, chloride ions at a concentration of 1.0 mM, and an initial pH of 3.0. The mixed solutions of the four reaction systems were placed in a constant temperature water bath at 25°C and magnetically stirred for 20 min.
[0078] The concentration of carbamazepine was determined using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography at a wavelength of 210 nm. The results are as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the removal rates of carbamazepine in the four reaction systems were 22.9%, 18.1%, 71.2%, and 86.0%, respectively.
[0079] The above experimental results show that the method for treating organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater of this application can efficiently activate oxidants to treat organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater. Persulfate has the highest catalytic efficiency, and subsequent embodiments will focus on persulfate as the target for further research.
[0080] Example 2
[0081] Four reaction systems were designed: activated alumina / permonosulfate, permonosulfate / chloride, activated alumina / chloride, and activated alumina / permonosulfate / chloride. The mixed solutions contained carbamazepine at a concentration of 10 μM, activated alumina at a dosage of 1.0 g / L, permonosulfate at a concentration of 40 μM, and chloride at a concentration of 1.0 mM, with an initial pH of 3.0. The mixed solutions of the four reaction systems were placed in a constant temperature water bath at 25℃ and magnetically stirred for 20 min. The concentration of carbamazepine was determined using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) at a wavelength of 210 nm. The results are as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the removal rates of carbamazepine in the four reaction systems were 1.5%, 6.4%, 12.6%, and 86.0%, respectively, with apparent reaction rates of 0.0002 min. -1 0.0039min -1 0.0078min -1 0.10212min -1 .
[0082] Activated alumina alone has poor adsorption capacity for carbamazepine; persulfate alone has limited oxidation capacity; activated alumina / persulfate has poor catalytic ability and cannot catalyze the decomposition of PMS into free radicals; persulfate / chloride ions can react to generate HClO, etc., but its reaction rate is slow, its energy barrier is high, and its ability to catalyze the degradation of pollutants is poor.
[0083] The above experimental results show that the method for treating organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater proposed in this application can efficiently activate persulfate to treat organic pollutants in chlorine-containing wastewater, providing a new method for the advanced treatment of chlorine-containing wastewater.
[0084] Example 3
[0085] Two reaction systems were designed: αAl₂O₃ / permonosulfate / chloride and γAl₂O₃ / permonosulfate / chloride. The mixed solutions contained 10 μM carbamazepine, 1.0 g / L activated alumina, 40 μM permonosulfate, and 1.0 mM chloride, with an initial pH of 3.0. The mixed solutions of both reaction systems were magnetically stirred in a 25°C water bath for 20 min.
[0086] The concentration of carbamazepine was determined using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography at a wavelength of 210 nm. The results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the removal rates of carbamazepine in the two reaction systems were 11.2% and 86.0%, respectively.
[0087] The above experimental results show that, compared with α-crystal alumina, γ-crystal activated alumina has higher catalytic efficiency.
[0088] In this embodiment, αAl2O3 was purchased from Shanghai Aladdin Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., with an average particle size of 209.87 nm.
[0089] Example 4
[0090] Six reaction systems were prepared: manganese dioxide / persulfate / chloride, manganese tetroxide / persulfate / chloride, ferric oxide / persulfate / chloride, cobalt tetroxide / persulfate / chloride, copper oxide / persulfate / chloride, and activated alumina / persulfate / chloride. The mixed solutions contained carbamazepine at a concentration of 10 μM, activated alumina at a dosage of 1.0 g / L, persulfate at a concentration of 40 μM, chloride at a concentration of 1.0 mM, and an initial pH of 3.0. The mixed solutions of the six reaction systems were placed in a constant temperature water bath at 25°C and magnetically stirred for 20 min.
[0091] The concentration of carbamazepine was determined using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography at a wavelength of 210 nm. The results are as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the removal rates of carbamazepine in the six reaction systems were 2.7%, 4.4%, 17.7%, 8.8%, 46.1%, and 86.0%, respectively, with apparent reaction rates of 0.00194 min. -1 0.0036min -1 0.01042min -1 0.00567min -1 0.03718min -1 0.10212min -1 .
[0092] The above experimental results show that, compared with traditional Fenton-like catalysts, activated alumina, as a Fenton-like catalyst, can significantly enhance the removal of organic pollutants from chlorine-containing wastewater.

The initial pH was 3.0. All six mixed solutions were placed in a constant temperature water bath at 25°C and magnetically stirred for 20 min.
[0095] The concentration of carbamazepine was determined using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography at a wavelength of 210 nm, and the degradation rates of carbamazepine in six mixed solutions were fitted. The results are as follows: Figure 6 As shown. In the six mixed solutions, the surface rates were 0.01407 min. -1 0.11214min -1 0.13987min -1 0.25144min -1 0.52488min -1 0.50697min -1 .

For example, the range 1-50 should be understood to include any number, combination of numbers, or subrange selected from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, or 50, as well as all decimal values between the integers mentioned above, such as 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, and 1.9. Regarding subranges, specifically consider "nested subranges" extending from any endpoint of the range. For example, nested sub-ranges of the exemplary range 1-50 may include 1-10, 1-20, 1-30 and 1-40 in one direction, or 50-40, 50-30, 50-20 and 50-10 in another direction.
