Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically relating to a method for degrading water pollutants based on iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite and low molecular weight humic acid. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, due to frequent human activities and rapid industrial and agricultural development, a large number of emerging pollutants have appeared in surface water bodies, such as endocrine disruptors, antibiotics, and estrogens. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are highly reactive substances generated during electron transfer from oxygen in water, including hydroxyl radicals (•OH) and singlet oxygen (•OH). 1 O2), and triplet free radicals ( 3 CDOM * Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are characterized by high redox potential and strong activity, allowing them to directly attack pollutants in water, oxidizing and degrading them into low-toxicity or non-toxic small molecules, and ultimately completely degrading them into carbon dioxide and water. It is generally believed that when widely present reducing iron or organic matter in water encounters oxygen, electron transfer and energy transitions occur, leading to the generation of ROS. Therefore, finding iron minerals and organic matter with high ROS generation potential, coupled with a suitable reduction-oxidation process, is key to efficiently generating ROS and degrading water pollutants.

[0003] Montmorillonite is a layered mineral composed of extremely fine-grained hydrated aluminosilicates, widely found in nature, and can be used for pollutant adsorption and catalytic degradation. However, the interlayer spacing of traditional montmorillonite is limited (approximately 1.0–1.5 nm), insufficient for rapid electron transitions and energy transfer. Humic acid is a widely distributed organic substance in lake waters, containing active groups such as carboxyl, phenolic hydroxyl, and quinone groups. The oxidation process of reduced humic acid is an important source of reactive oxygen species in water. Compared to high molecular weight (1 kDa–0.45 μm) humic acid, low molecular weight (<1 kDa) humic acid contains higher aromaticity or more active groups, and has a higher potential for generating reactive oxygen species. However, whether it is iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite or low molecular weight humic acid, the potential for generating reactive oxygen species in a single system during the reduction-oxidation process is limited. Therefore, developing a highly efficient method for generating reactive oxygen species and applying it to the degradation of emerging pollutants in water bodies can maximize ecological, environmental, economic, and social benefits. This is of great strategic significance for the purification and treatment of polluted lakes, rivers, urban wastewater treatment plant effluent, and aquaculture wastewater. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects and deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for degrading water pollutants based on iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite and low molecular weight humic acid.

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a method for degrading water pollutants based on iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite and low molecular weight humic acid, comprising the following steps:

[0006] A mixed treatment solution is formed by mixing iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite and a low molecular weight humic acid solution. This solution is then slowly added to a sealed degradation tank, and the air inside the tank is expelled to create the first reaction environment. The reaction is carried out for 36-60 hours under stirring. Air is then introduced into the degradation tank to create the second reaction environment, and the reaction is carried out for 3-6 hours under stirring. Finally, the solution is added to polluted water to degrade the pollutants in the water. The solid-liquid ratio of the iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite to the low molecular weight humic acid solution in the mixed treatment solution is 1 g: 500-1000 mL. The first reaction environment has an oxygen content of less than 4% in the air and a dissolved oxygen content of less than 0.2 mg / L in the water. The second reaction environment has an oxygen content of more than 15% in the air and a dissolved oxygen content of more than 15 mg / L in the water.

[0007] The preparation process of iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite is as follows:

[0008] S1. Add montmorillonite to deionized water and stir in a water bath at 25~40℃ for 2 hours to allow it to fully swell and form a montmorillonite suspension.

[0009] S2. Slowly add 0.40~0.60M FeCl3·6H2O solution and 0.35~0.60M MnCl2 solution dropwise to the montmorillonite suspension, stir at 300-500 rpm for 1.5~2.5 h, and let stand for 50~70 h. o Aged at C for 12-24 hours; centrifuged, dried and ground to obtain iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite.

[0010] Furthermore, the volume ratio of FeCl3·6H2O solution to montmorillonite suspension is 0.50~0.60:1; the volume ratio of MnCl2 solution to montmorillonite suspension is 0.20~0.30:1.

[0011] Furthermore, the mass ratio of deionized water to montmorillonite is 45~65:1.

[0012] The preparation process of low molecular weight humic acid is as follows:

[0013] Weigh out humic acid powder and dissolve it in deionized water. The solid-liquid ratio of humic acid powder to deionized water is 1g: 5~20mL. Stir for 1-2h at room temperature and pH 7~10. After filtration through 0.45μm micropores, obtain humic acid solution.

[0014] The humic acid solution is tangentially filtered. The pore size of the tangential ultrafiltration membrane is 1.0~2.0 kDa, the pressure is 0.05~0.2 MPa, and the solution that permeates through the ultrafiltration membrane is collected as low molecular weight humic acid.

[0015] Furthermore, the sources of humic acid powder include soil, water bodies, and coal.

[0016] Furthermore, the degradation tank is equipped with an exhaust valve at the top, a filter membrane on the inner surface of the bottom, and an outlet in the middle of the bottom; the degradation tank regulates the environment inside the degradation tank through the exhaust valve.

[0017] Furthermore, the degradation tank is made of stainless steel or polytetrafluoroethylene, and the filter membrane is made of cellulose acetate or glass fiber.

[0018] Furthermore, the volume ratio of the mixed treatment solution to the water to be treated is 1:300~600.

[0019] The beneficial technical effects achieved by this invention are as follows: This invention provides a method for degrading water pollutants based on iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite and low molecular weight humic acid. In this method, the carboxyl groups, phenolic hydroxyl groups, and kun groups in the low molecular weight humic acid can dissolve some of the Fe in the iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite and form Fe(II) / Fe(III)-organic complexes. These complexes can shuttle electrons from Fe(II) in the interlayer structure of iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite to O2 to promote the generation of reactive oxygen species. In addition, the kun groups in the low molecular weight humic acid can also act as a bridge to mediate the shuttle of electrons from Fe(II) in the interlayer structure of iron-manganese intercalated montmorillonite to O2, thereby generating more reactive oxygen species. Thus, the purpose of degrading pollutants in water is achieved. Montmorillonite and humic acid are both derived from the natural environment and are non-toxic and harmless. Furthermore, the preparation methods for iron-manganese montmorillonite and low molecular weight humic acid are simple and low-cost. Compared with traditional methods for degrading water pollutants, the operating conditions of this application are mild, the equipment requirements are low, the safety factor is high, and the removal rate of antibiotics in water reaches 90-98%, the removal rate of estrogen reaches 92-99%, and the removal rate of endocrine disruptors reaches 95-99%.
