Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of organic wastewater treatment, and in particular to a preparation method and application of a nanotube-encapsulated iron particle catalyst. Background Art

[0002] Organic synthetic drugs such as antibiotics have made significant contributions to human health. However, incomplete use of antibiotics has led to their residues entering natural water bodies through various channels. This type of organic pollutants is difficult to be naturally degraded and is highly toxic and diffusible. The treatment of this type of organic wastewater is a difficult problem in current research.

[0003] At present, advanced oxidation treatment (AOP) is an emerging technology for degrading organic pollutants in water. Compared with physical and chemical precipitation, microbial therapy and membrane separation technology, AOP through the activation of persulfate (PDS, PMS) has the advantages of high efficiency, high environmental resistance and high selectivity. Sulfate activated by the catalyst produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) with high oxidizing ability, which can degrade organic pollutants into low-toxic substances or even completely mineralize them.

[0004] Transition metal-doped carbon-based catalysts have shown excellent prospects in wastewater treatment due to their high catalytic activity. Iron-based catalysts based on nanoparticles (such as nano-iron, iron carbide, and iron oxide) have been shown to have excellent catalytic activity, and they activate PMS through changes in metal valence states. However, the presence of nano-iron particles will greatly increase the amount of iron ion leaching, especially in acidic environments, which has problems such as high metal leaching and high cost.

[0005] In view of the above problems, a preparation method and application of a nanotube-encapsulated iron particle catalyst are proposed. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a preparation method and application of a nanotube-encapsulated iron particle catalyst. By designing a nanoparticle carrier structure, the coating of nano iron particles by nitrogen-doped nanotubes is achieved, and the catalyst has the advantage of high stability. The preparation method of the present invention is simple, low-cost, and easy to produce on a large scale. The catalyst is used to activate permonosulfate to degrade pollutants in organic wastewater, thereby solving the disadvantages of large catalyst dosage, catalyst non-recyclability, catalyst metal loss, etc., and is used for the efficient degradation of tetracyclines, phenols and dyes.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for preparing a nanotube-encapsulated iron particle catalyst, comprising the following steps:

[0011] S4, grinding the solid material obtained in S3 evenly, placing it in a tube furnace for high-temperature calcination to obtain the final product Fe / Fe3C@NCNT.

[0012] Preferably, in S1, the masses of melamine, cyanuric acid and 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxypyrimidine are 1g to 3g, 1g to 3.5g and 1g to 3g respectively; the dissolution temperature is 80 to 100°C, and the amount of deionized water used is 50 to 150ml.

[0013] Preferably, in S2, the concentration of the ferric chloride solution is 5 g / L, and the dosage is 10 to 30 ml.

[0015] Preferably, in S4, the calcination conditions of the tubular furnace are: under a nitrogen atmosphere, keep the temperature at 30°C for 1 hour; then increase the temperature to 550°C and keep the temperature for 2 hours, with a heating rate of 5-10°C / min; then increase the temperature to 700-900°C and keep the temperature for 2 hours, with a heating rate of 5-10°C / min; finally cool down to 500°C and end, with a cooling rate of 10-20°C / min.

[0016] The present invention also provides a nanotube-encapsulated iron particle catalyst, and Fe / Fe3C@NCNT is prepared by the above preparation method.

[0017] Preferably, the Fe / Fe3C@NCNT is used to activate peroxymonosulfate to degrade pollutants in organic wastewater;

[0018] The specific steps of the pollutant degradation experiment are as follows: ultrasonically place the Fe / Fe3C@NCNT catalyst in deionized water for a period of time to disperse and inky the catalyst; then place the resulting catalyst solution in a water bath, maintain a constant temperature of 25°C, add the pollutant and stir for 10 minutes, then add peroxymonosulfate and start timing; after reacting for 30 minutes, test the residual concentration of the pollutant.

[0019] Therefore, the preparation method and application of a nanotube-encapsulated iron particle catalyst of the present invention realize the coating of nano iron particles by nitrogen-doped nanotubes by designing a nano particle carrier structure, and has the advantage of high stability. The preparation method of the process is simple, low-cost, and easy to produce on a large scale.
