Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of natural polymer processing and application, and relates to a method for preparing super-hydrophobic high-calorific value bamboo fiber fuel; it also relates to the application of the super-hydrophobic bamboo fiber material as an adsorbent in removing waste oil from waste water. Background Art

[0002] Food safety is an issue that we are very concerned about, among which the problem of waste oil is a very common problem in our lives. Waste oil can be divided into three categories: the first is waste oil in a narrow sense, which is the oil obtained by simple processing and refining of greasy floating materials in the sewer or leftovers and vegetables (commonly known as swill) in hotels and restaurants; the second is the oil produced after processing and refining of inferior pork, pig offal, and pig skin; the third is the oil used for frying food, which is reused or added with some new oil after being used more than a certain number of times. The main component of waste oil is still triglyceride, but in the refining process, animal and plant oils undergo a series of chemical changes such as rancidity, oxidation and decomposition after being contaminated, producing some substances such as aldehydes, ketones, lactones and peroxides with pungent odors, which are carcinogenic. This is not only a pollution to the environment, but also a great hazard to human health.

[0003] The method for processing waste oil at present mainly includes heating, crushing and screening, sand settling, grease treatment and three-phase separation, and then the chemical products of biodiesel, ethanol, lubricating oil, soap, etc. are made by chemical reaction, and the processing of global waste oil is mainly for making biodiesel.Wherein, grease treatment is the key of the present invention, by preparing a kind of super-hydrophobic fiber material, it is sprinkled in sewage, and then it is pulled out after absorbing waste oil therein.Utilize tool to squeeze out the waste oil absorbed, reach the purpose of reclaiming waste oil for reuse.

[0004] Bamboo fiber is a natural renewable resource widely distributed in nature. Since bamboo fiber molecules contain many hydrophilic hydroxyl groups, although it has certain adsorption properties for hydrophilic substances, it is precisely because of the large number of hydroxyl groups in the molecular structure that hydrogen bonds are widely formed between and within the molecular chains. This hydroxyl-covered structure affects the reaction activity and adsorption properties. Therefore, in order to achieve the expected adsorption effect, bamboo fiber needs to be modified. Heptafluorodecyl trimethoxysilane, silicon dioxide and anhydrous ethanol are mixed into a solution to modify the bamboo fiber. This has the advantages of good selectivity, strong adsorption capacity, wide source of raw materials, and low cost. In summary, the modified super-hydrophobic bamboo fiber material has both adsorption capacity and is easier to regenerate than adsorption resin, and has high stability. Combined with the current research status, the super-hydrophobic material prepared by modified bamboo fiber can not only have a good water absorption effect, but also adsorb oil in sewage. The present invention is based on bamboo fiber, a widely available renewable biomass resource, and modifies it to obtain a super-hydrophobic material having a three-dimensional nano-mesoporous network structure, a stable structure, high oil adsorption efficiency, large adsorption capacity, simple preparation process, and low cost. It can not only be used for sewage treatment, but also can be used as a high calorific value fuel, and is a very environmentally friendly material. Summary of the invention
