Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of catalyst technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing and applying a sandwich-type dinuclear uranium tungsten antimonate visible light photocatalyst modified with inorganic-organic mixed ammonium. Background Technology

[0002] Fluorinated organic compounds (FOCs) have wide applications in industrial production and consumer goods. Among them, perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) possesses both oleophobic and hydrophobic properties, making it widely used in the production of stain-resistant agents for textiles, leather goods, furniture, and carpets. Due to its high chemical stability, it is used as an intermediate in the production of coatings, foam fire extinguishers, floor polishes, pesticides, and termite control agents. Furthermore, it is used in paint additives, adhesives, pharmaceutical products, flame retardants, petroleum and mining products, and insecticides. Currently, 96 different FOCs can release PFOS through degradation in the environment; these substances are called PFOS-related substances. Contrary to the typical behavior of many persistent organic pollutants, FOCs do not accumulate in adipose tissue because they are both hydrophobic and lipophobic. Conversely, PFOS is attached to proteins in the blood and liver, and research results indicate that PFOS and its derivatives are difficult for organisms to excrete through inhalation and intake via drinking water and food, and ultimately accumulate in the blood, liver, kidneys, and brain of the human body and other organisms.

[0003] PFOS is one of the most recalcitrant organic pollutants, and its degradation methods include physical separation, chemical degradation, biodegradation, and others such as molecular imprinting, high and low temperature plasma methods. Physical separation methods cannot completely degrade PFOS, the adsorbent cannot be reused, and the cost is high. Chemical degradation methods suffer from harsh conditions and high costs. Biodegradation has been less studied, but it also suffers from long processing times, sensitivity of microorganisms to environmental changes, and the influence of microorganisms on processing efficiency. Therefore, it is essential to develop a catalyst that achieves rapid, complete, and reusable degradation of PFOS. Summary of the Invention

[0028] The structural formula contains two monohydrated uranyl ions [UO2(H2O)]. 2+ Sandwich replaces two [SbW9O] 33 ] 9- Ions form a stable dimer {[UO2(H2O)]2[SbW9O]2} 33 ]} 14- The counteracting cations are two tetramethylammonium cations and 12 ammonium ions, for a total of 17 water molecules of crystallization.

[0029] A method for preparing an inorganic-organic mixed ammonium modified sandwich-type dinuclear uranium tungsten antimonate visible light photocatalyst includes the following steps:

[0030] S1: Add sodium tungstate dihydrate, ammonium chloride, tetramethylammonium bromide, antimony trichloride and uranyl nitrate hexahydrate sequentially to a 100 mL beaker;

[0031] S2: Add 30-100 mL of deionized water to the beaker, and use 6 mol·L⁻¹ water. -1 HCl solution is used to adjust the pH of the solution to a value of 2-5.

[0032] S3: After stirring the reaction solution in step S2 evenly, place it in a water bath and heat it at 60-100℃ for 3 hours.

[0033] S4: After the reaction solution in step S3 is taken out and cooled to room temperature, it is filtered, and the filtrate is evaporated in the open at room temperature;

[0034] S5: After waiting for 15 days, yellow strip-shaped crystals precipitate out. After filtration, the crystals are washed with deionized water and anhydrous ethanol, and then naturally dried to obtain the target uranium tungstate antimonate.

[0035] In an embodiment of the present invention, in step S1, the amounts of sodium tungstate dihydrate, ammonium chloride, tetramethylammonium bromide, antimony trichloride, and uranyl nitrate hexahydrate are 20 mmol, 20 mmol, 2 mmol, 2 mmol, and 2 mmol, respectively.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present invention, in step S2, the pH of the solution is 3.

[0037] In an embodiment of the present invention, in step S3, the temperature of the water bath is 85°C. Example 2:

[0038] An inorganic-organic mixed ammonium modified sandwich-type dinuclear uranium tungsten antimonate visible light photocatalyst for visible light catalytic degradation of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present invention, the application of an inorganic-organic mixed ammonium modified sandwich-type dinuclear uranium-tungsten antimonate visible light photocatalyst in the degradation of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid includes the following steps: First, the inorganic-organic mixed ammonium modified sandwich-type dinuclear uranium-tungsten antimonate visible light photocatalyst is ground into powder for 10 minutes; 10 mg of the yellow powder is dissolved in 20 mL of a 10 mg·L⁻¹ solution. -1 In an aqueous solution of PFOS, the solution was placed in a photocatalytic reaction apparatus with a stirrer turned on and illuminated by a 300W LED lamp (simulating a visible light source). Within 5 minutes, 95.8% of the perfluorooctane sulfonic acid in the aqueous solution was degraded, and after 30 minutes, the degradation rate reached 99.5%, thus yielding the desired product. Figure 4 The photocatalytic degradation curve is shown.

[0040] In this embodiment, control group 1 and control group 2 were set up respectively. Control group 1 was a blank control group, without the addition of any catalyst, but under LED light irradiation, at which time perfluorooctane sulfonic acid hardly degraded; control group 2 was prepared by first stabilizing the perfluorooctane sulfonic acid test solution in a dark environment, and then adding the catalyst of the present invention, while still maintaining a dark environment. At this time, under the condition of no visible light participation, the activity of the catalyst was very low, and the degradation rate was only 12.2%.

[0041] Specifically, the inorganic-organic mixed ammonium modified sandwich-type dinuclear uranium-tungsten-antimonate visible light photocatalyst can be recovered through water precipitation, and its degradation rate for recycling 1 to 10 times is as follows: Figure 5 As shown.

[0042] like Figure 5 As shown, the inorganic-organic mixed ammonium modified sandwich-type dinuclear uranium-tungsten antimonate visible light photocatalyst has a degradation rate of 95.2% after 10 cycles, indicating that its catalytic activity is well maintained. This inorganic-organic mixed ammonium modified sandwich-type dinuclear uranium-tungsten antimonate visible light photocatalyst can be reused multiple times while maintaining good catalytic performance.

[0043] like Figure 6 As shown, the powder diffraction peaks under the three conditions overlap very well, indicating that this visible light catalyst has excellent stability and will not produce secondary pollution.
