Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the preparation method and application of adsorbents for deep purification of uranium-containing wastewater. Background Technology

[0002] With the development and widespread application of nuclear energy, the treatment and purification of uranium-containing wastewater has become an important environmental protection task. Uranium, as a radioactive element, poses a serious threat to the ecological environment and human health if present in water bodies. Therefore, developing efficient adsorbents for uranium-containing wastewater purification is particularly important. Existing adsorbent materials still have many shortcomings in terms of adsorption capacity, selectivity, and regeneration performance, making it difficult to meet the needs of practical applications. In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have become a highly promising adsorbent material due to their advantages such as high specific surface area, porous structure, and tunable chemical properties. Chinese Patent Application No. CN202410469977.1 discloses a uranium adsorbent, its preparation method, and its application. The uranium adsorbent disclosed is a metal-organic framework with a nanocage structure, in-situ encapsulating a keggin-type heteropolyacid within the nanocage; the metal-organic framework is MIL-101(Cr). However, the uranium adsorbent of this adsorbent has a low uranium adsorption capacity of only 280.60 mg / g. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention aims to address the technical problem of low adsorption capacity in existing metal-organic framework uranium adsorbents by providing a method for preparing and applying an iron single-atom porous framework adsorbent for the deep purification of uranium-containing wastewater. This adsorbent is a highly efficient iron single-atom porous framework adsorbent used for the deep purification of uranium-containing wastewater.

[0004] The preparation method of the iron single-atom porous framework adsorbent for deep purification of uranium-containing wastewater of the present invention is carried out according to the following steps:

[0005] I. Preparation of ZIF-8 nanocrystals;

[0006] II. ZIF-8@K-TA Synthesis:

[0007] ZIF-8 nanocrystals were dispersed in deionized water at a concentration of 20–25 g / L and stirred for 1–2 h to obtain a ZIF-8 dispersion.

[0008] An aqueous solution of tannic acid (TA) with a concentration of 6–24 mmol / L was adjusted to pH 8 with KOH solution to obtain an alkaline tannic acid solution.

[0009] Then, according to the volume ratio of alkaline tannic acid solution to ZIF-8 dispersion of 3:10, the alkaline tannic acid solution was added to the ZIF-8 dispersion, stirred for 7-10 minutes, and then centrifuged. The solid product was washed three times with deionized water and methanol respectively, and dried to obtain ZIF-8@K-TA.

[0010] III. Synthesis of ZIF-8@Fe-TA: ZIF-8@K-TA was soaked in a methanol solution of ferric nitrate and stirred for 2-3 hours. After centrifugation, the solid product was washed three times with methanol and dried under vacuum to obtain ZIF-8@Fe-TA.

[0011] IV. Synthesis of Fe-NC: ZIF-8@Fe-TA was transferred to a ceramic crucible and placed in a furnace under a dry argon flow. It was heated from room temperature to 900-950℃ at a heating rate of 5℃ / min and held for 2-3 hours for annealing. Then it was cooled to room temperature to obtain an iron single-atom porous framework adsorbent for deep purification of uranium-containing wastewater, denoted as Fe-NC.

[0012] Furthermore, the preparation method of ZIF-8 nanocrystals is carried out according to the following steps:

[0013] (1) Weigh out 2-methylimidazole (MeIM) and zinc nitrate hexahydrate according to the molar ratio of 2-methylimidazole (MeIM) to zinc nitrate hexahydrate of 4.71:1;

[0014] (2) Prepare a mixture of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), methanol (MeOH) and ethanol (EtOH) in a volume ratio of 3:1:1; then dissolve the 2-methylimidazole weighed in step (1) in the mixture to obtain solution A; wherein the concentration of 2-methylimidazole in solution A is 1.5 to 1.6 mol / L;

[0015] (3) N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and methanol (MeOH) are mixed in a volume ratio of 3:2 to prepare a mixed solvent; then the zinc nitrate hexahydrate (Zn(NO3)2·6H2O) weighed in step (1) is dissolved in the mixed solvent to obtain solution B; the concentration of zinc nitrate hexahydrate in solution B is 0.20~0.25mol / L;

[0016] (4) Add the solution A prepared in step (2) to the solution B prepared in step (3), stir at room temperature for 20 to 24 hours, centrifuge, wash the solid with methanol three times, and vacuum dry to obtain ZIF-8 nanocrystals;

[0017] Furthermore, the concentration of the KOH solution mentioned in step two is 6 mol / L.

[0018] Furthermore, the drying process described in step two involves drying in an oven at a temperature of 35–40°C for 8–10 hours.

[0019] Furthermore, the vacuum drying described in step three involves drying in a vacuum drying oven at a temperature of 45–50°C for 10–12 hours.

[0020] The application of the single-atom porous framework adsorbent for the deep purification of iron in uranium-containing wastewater prepared by the above method involves treating uranium-containing wastewater using the single-atom porous framework adsorbent. The specific method is as follows: the single-atom porous framework adsorbent is added to the uranium-containing wastewater, and the pH value is adjusted to 6-9; after adsorption at a temperature of 15-55℃ for 10-20 hours, the single-atom porous framework adsorbent is separated to complete the treatment of uranium-containing wastewater.

[0021] The method of this invention first prepares ZIF-8@K-TA powder using ZIF-8 powder. ZIF-8, as a typical metal-organic framework material, has a high specific surface area and excellent chemical stability. By combining it with tannic acid (TA), its adsorption performance can be further enhanced. Subsequently, ZIF-8@Fe-TA powder is prepared by soaking the ZIF-8@K-TA powder in a methanol solution containing ferric nitrate. Ferric nitrate provides iron ions in this process, and TA coordinates with the iron ions through its abundant phenolic hydroxyl groups, forming a stable iron single-atom dispersion system. Finally, ZIF-8@Fe-TA is converted into Fe-NC adsorbent through high-temperature heat treatment. This adsorbent not only retains the porous structure of ZIF-8, but also significantly improves its selectivity and adsorption capacity for uranium ions by introducing iron single atoms.

[0022] The iron single-atom porous framework adsorbent of this invention exhibits excellent performance in adsorbing uranium ions, especially at pH=6, where the adsorption capacity reaches 491.46 mg / g and the removal rate is 98.29%. The adsorbent prepared by the method of this invention effectively solves the problems of low adsorption capacity, poor selectivity, and inadequate regeneration performance in existing technologies, and can be used in the field of deep purification treatment of uranium-containing wastewater.

[0041] The beneficial effects of the present invention are verified using the following examples:

[0042] Example 1: The preparation method of the iron single-atom porous framework adsorbent for the deep purification of uranium-containing wastewater in Example 1 is carried out according to the following steps:

[0048] II. ZIF-8@K-TA Synthesis:

[0049] 200 mg of ZIF-8 nanocrystals were dispersed in 10 mL of deionized water and stirred for 2 h to obtain a ZIF-8 dispersion.

[0050] An alkaline tannic acid solution was obtained by adjusting the pH of a 6 mmol / L tannic acid (TA) aqueous solution to 8 with a 6 mol / L KOH solution.

[0051] Add 3 ml of alkaline tannic acid solution to 10 ml of ZIF-8 dispersion, stir for 7 minutes, then centrifuge to separate the solid product. Wash the solid product three times with deionized water and methanol respectively, and dry it in an oven at 40°C for 8 hours to obtain ZIF-8@K-TA.

[0052] III. Synthesis of ZIF-8@Fe-TA:

[0054] IV. Synthesis of Fe-NC: ZIF-8@Fe-TA was transferred to a ceramic crucible and placed in a furnace under a dry argon flow. It was annealed by heating from room temperature to 900℃ at a heating rate of 5℃ / min and holding for 2 hours. Then it was cooled to room temperature to obtain an iron single-atom porous framework adsorbent for deep purification of uranium-containing wastewater, denoted as Fe-NC-6.

[0055] Example 2: This example differs from Example 1 in that the concentration of the tannic acid aqueous solution in step two is 12 mmol / L. The other steps and parameters are the same as in Example 1, resulting in an iron single-atom porous framework adsorbent for the deep purification of uranium-containing wastewater, denoted as Fe-NC-12.

[0056] Example 3: This example differs from Example 1 in that the concentration of the tannic acid aqueous solution in step two is 24 mmol / L.

Figure 4 As shown, from Figure 4It can be seen that after high-temperature pyrolysis, the dodecahedral shape is maintained, with the whole body concave towards the center and the edges protruding, indicating that a hollow structure is formed. The hollow structure will facilitate the transport of Fe charges, thereby increasing the amount of uranium adsorbed.

[0061] Example 2: Scanning electron microscope image of Fe-NC-12 prepared in step four is shown below. Figure 5 As shown, from Figure 5 It can be seen that after high-temperature pyrolysis, a hollow structure is formed, but the tannic acid aggregates to form nano-wires.

After 24 h of adsorption, the concentration of uranium ions in the supernatant was measured, and the adsorption capacity and removal rate were calculated.

[0068] The adsorption capacities of Fe-NC-6, Fe-NC-12, and Fe-NC-24 change with temperature as follows: Figure 14 As shown, from Figure 14 It can be seen that within the temperature range of 15–55℃, Fe-NC-6, Fe-NC-12, and Fe-NC-24 adsorb UO2. 2+ The adsorption capacity of Fe-NC-6 gradually increased with increasing temperature, from 483.55 mg / g.-1 It increased to 592.68 mg g -1 Fe-NC-12 consists of 449.55 mg g -1 It increased to 590.28 mg g -1 Fe-NC-24 consists of 420.15 mg g -1 It increased to 583.88 mg g -1 This demonstrates that increasing the temperature is beneficial for the adsorption of uranyl ions.

[0069] Application Example 3: 0.005 g of Fe-NC adsorbent was added to a series of conical flasks, followed by 50 mL of uranium-containing solution; the uranium-containing solution contained UO2. 2+ The concentration was 50 ppm, and the pH of the solution was adjusted to 6.

Every hour, a sample was taken to measure the concentration of uranium ions in the supernatant, and the adsorption capacity and removal rate were calculated.

[0070] Fe-NC-6, Fe-NC-12 and Fe-NC-24 affect UO2 2+ For uranium-containing solutions UO2 2+ The change in removal rate over time is as follows: Figure 15 As shown, from Figure 15 It can be seen that Fe-NC adsorbent can remove 60% of UO2 within the first 6 hours. 2+ With increasing adsorption time, the removal performance gradually improved and reached adsorption equilibrium after 20 hours. The removal rate of Fe-NC-6 was 98.29%; the removal rate of Fe-NC-12 was 96.03%; and the removal rate of Fe-NC-24 was 92.48%.

After 24 h of adsorption, the concentration of uranium ions in the supernatant was measured, and the adsorption capacity and removal rate were calculated.

[0072] The effect of initial concentration on the adsorption capacity of Fe-NC-6, Fe-NC-12 and Fe-NC-24 is shown in the figure below. Figure 16 As shown; from Figure 16It can be seen that at initial concentrations of 30 ppm, 40 ppm, and 50 ppm, Fe-NC-6, Fe-NC-12, and Fe-NC-24 can remove most of UO2. 2+ Concentration.

Adsorption experiments were conducted at room temperature. After 24 hours of adsorption, a sample was taken to measure the uranium ion concentration in the supernatant, and the adsorption capacity and removal rate were calculated. The effect of competing ions on the adsorption capacity of Fe-NC-6 is shown in the figure below. Figure 17 As shown, from Figure 17 It can be seen that in uranium-containing wastewater with competing ions, Fe-NC-6 has a greater influence on UO2. 2+ It still possesses high removal capability and strong anti-interference ability.

[0074] The Fe-NC-6 prepared in Example 1 was used to purify uranium-containing wastewater in Example 1, and then subjected to scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The morphology of the adsorbed Fe-NC-6, the uranyl morphology, and the corresponding energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) spectra are shown below. Figure 18 As shown, from Figure 18 Microscopic scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images show that the Fe-NC-6 framework cubic nanoparticles remained intact after uranium-containing wastewater purification, indicating that their original structure was not damaged during adsorption. Furthermore, new plate-like crystal morphologies grew vertically on the Fe-NC-6 surface, and elemental analysis revealed that these plates were formed by the aggregation of O and U elements, representing uranyl hydrates. The elemental contents analyzed by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) are shown in Table 1.
