Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of sewage treatment, and particularly relates to a method for treating organic pollutants in wastewater by using a pre-oxidation activation method to strengthen iron-based amorphous alloy. BACKGROUND

[0002] Due to the complex molecular structure and high chemical stability, it is difficult to treat azo dyes in industrial wastewater by traditional biological degradation methods. These dyes may be converted into carcinogenic aromatic amines under anaerobic conditions through the action of microorganisms, increasing the environmental and health risks. At present, the methods for treating azo dye-containing wastewater mainly include physical methods, biological methods and chemical methods. Physical methods such as activated carbon adsorption can separate dyes but cannot degrade azo dyes, and have high operating costs and generate a large amount of sludge that needs to be treated. Biological methods are suitable for the degradation of specific toxic azo dyes, but have a narrow application range. Chemical methods are favored due to their fast degradation rate and high degradation rate, especially the advanced oxidation method, which generates active free radicals to degrade pollutants.

[0003] Among the chemical methods, zero-valent iron reduction method and its coupled Fenton oxidation method are effective methods for treating azo dye-containing wastewater. These methods use hydroxyl radicals generated by Fenton reaction to degrade azo dyes to generate non-toxic small molecules. However, the degradation efficiency of these methods is easily affected by the environment, has poor stability, and requires a long time to achieve efficient degradation. Pre-oxidation methods such as ball milling, increasing specific surface area, and annealing can improve the active sites of zero-valent iron and accelerate the degradation of azo dyes, but there is still a certain gap from industrial application.

[0004] Patent CN113201699B discloses an iron-based alloy material and its preparation method and application. The material contains Fe, Si, B, P and C elements, and is used for the degradation treatment of azo dye wastewater. However, the alloy composition in this patent is strictly required, Fe: 82%~83%, Si: 2%~3%, B: 10%~15%, P: 2%~3%, C: 1%, and the iron-based alloy prepared in this patent needs to be annealed at a high temperature of 800~850℃ in a vacuum to form nanocrystals. High-temperature annealing requires high requirements for heat treatment equipment and conditions, increasing the cost. In addition, the dosage of the iron-based alloy material in this patent is 2g / L, and the C1 material is preferred. It still takes more than 30min to achieve a degradation rate of 90% (C t / C0 equals 0.1) in the degradation of 40mg / L orange II solution.

[0005] Patent CN109402369A discloses an iron-based porous material for degrading azo dyes and its preparation method. The porous material is obtained by heat-treating an iron-based amorphous alloy precursor and then using dealloying. However, this method requires a high vacuum of 80 mTorr during the heat treatment process, and the concentration and treatment time of the etching solution must be strictly controlled during the dealloying process. Furthermore, the patent only provides the final degradation rate of the porous material for degrading azo dyes, without providing the degradation reaction rate or reaction constant.

[0006] Patent CN117943002A discloses an iron-based nanoporous material, its preparation method, and its application. The iron-based nanoporous material is prepared through annealing and chemical dealloying. However, this method still requires approximately 30 minutes to achieve a degradation rate exceeding 90% under the following conditions: an 8g / L dosage of np-SA20, a 40mg / L Golden Orange II solution concentration, and a constant temperature of 35°C.

[0007] Patent CN110918911B discloses an iron-based amorphous alloy strip and its use in the degradation of azo dye wastewater. Although the alloy strip exhibits excellent corrosion resistance and catalytic degradation activity, the degradation rate of the alloy prepared by this method, using 2 g / L of the strip, is less than 50% after 10 minutes when degrading 40 mg / L of azo dye, and it takes another 50 minutes to achieve a degradation rate exceeding 95%.

[0008] Patent CN111170414B discloses a method for degrading wastewater with an iron-based amorphous alloy strip. The degradation rate is increased by ball milling the iron-based amorphous alloy strip for 4-8 hours. When the strip dosage is 10g / L and the pH is 2-3, it still takes more than 10 minutes to achieve a degradation rate of 90% for the degradation of 20mg / L of Acid Orange 7. (C t / C0 equals 0.1).

[0009] Patent CN112973691B discloses a method for preparing an amorphous-nanocrystalline alloy with a nanostructure, which increases the reaction rate by increasing the specific surface area of ​​the strips. However, the examples show that the degradation rate of organic dye waste liquid with the addition of 0.5g / L nanocrystalline alloy catalyst is only 50% after 6 minutes of reaction, while it takes more than 30 minutes to achieve a degradation rate of 97%.

[0010] Patent CN107326159B discloses a method for preparing and applying an iron-based nanocrystalline alloy for treating azo dye-containing printing and dyeing wastewater. The method obtains iron-based nanocrystals by annealing an iron-based amorphous alloy. However, when annealing the 1K107BN85 strips obtained by this method at 800°C, it still takes 10-15 minutes to achieve a degradation rate of 90% for a 25 mg / L aqueous solution of Golden Orange 2 dye at a strip dosage of 10 g / L.

[0011] At present, the efficiency of using iron-based amorphous alloys to degrade printing and dyeing wastewater is still relatively low. The time to complete a 90% degradation rate is generally more than 10 minutes, and the equipment requirements are high, the processing time is long, and the preparation method is relatively complex. It is difficult to meet the needs of low-cost rapid activation of iron-based amorphous-nanocrystalline alloys, and thus achieve rapid degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater. Summary of the Invention

[0012] The present invention aims to provide a method for treating organic pollutants in wastewater using an iron-based amorphous alloy enhanced by a pre-oxidation activation method, thereby overcoming the problems of the prior art. The pre-oxidation-treated iron-based amorphous alloy is added to the wastewater system to degrade the organic pollutants in the wastewater. The pre-oxidation treatment method involves short-term, high-temperature oxidation. This method has the advantages of being simple, highly efficient, and time-efficient in degrading organic pollutants in wastewater, as well as being able to operate continuously and treat a variety of organic pollutants.

[0013] A method for treating organic pollutants in wastewater by using a pre-oxidation activation method to strengthen an iron-based amorphous alloy comprises the following steps: heating the wastewater containing the organic pollutants, adding hydrogen peroxide, adjusting the pH, then adding a pre-oxidized iron-based amorphous alloy, reacting under stirring, and degrading the organic pollutants.

[0014] Preferably, the concentration of the organic pollutants in the wastewater is 5-350 mg / L, the amount of hydrogen peroxide added is 1-30 mmol / L, and the amount of the pre-oxidized iron-based amorphous alloy added is 0.05-20 g / L.

[0015] Preferably, the pre-oxidized iron-based amorphous alloy is obtained by subjecting the iron-based amorphous alloy to a high-temperature oxidation treatment in air or an atmosphere with an oxygen partial pressure of not less than 0.01 MPa.

[0016] More preferably, the temperature of the high-temperature oxidation is 450-850° C., and the time is 6 seconds to 30 minutes.

[0017] More preferably, the temperature of the high-temperature oxidation is 500-800°C.

[0018] Most preferably, the temperature of the high temperature oxidation is 650-750°C.

[0019] More preferably, the iron-based amorphous alloy includes one or more of amorphous strips newly prepared by casting or melting, strips with partially aged and crystallized surfaces, and waste strips with rusted and oxidized surfaces, and the iron-based amorphous alloy includes silicon, boron and iron, wherein the mass percentage of iron atoms is ≥50%.

[0020] The present invention utilizes high-temperature oxidation treatment of iron-based amorphous alloys, and the principle of strengthening the iron-based amorphous degradation of organic pollutants in wastewater is as follows: during the pre-oxidation treatment of the iron-based amorphous alloy, on the one hand, the oxidation treatment causes the silicon and boron elements inside the iron-based amorphous alloy to diffuse rapidly, forming submicron silicon-rich and boron-rich iron oxide particles on the surface of the strip, thereby increasing the specific surface area of ​​the strip. On the other hand, the iron element inside the strip is precipitated to form nano- or submicron α-Fe that spreads throughout the surface and interior of the alloy, increasing crystal defects such as grain boundaries and phase boundaries inside the alloy, changing the chemical potential on the surface and interior of the strip, and thus promoting the catalytic degradation rate of the alloy; in addition, during the pre-oxidation treatment, the segregation of silicon and boron elements in the iron-based amorphous alloy introduces residual stress and a passivation film inside the strip, thereby facilitating the iron atoms to lose electrons to generate ferrous ions that enter the solution, further promoting the generation of hydroxyl radicals and the degradation rate of organic pollutants.

[0021] Preferably, the heating temperature is 10-80°C, the pH is 2.0-6.5, and the stirring time is 10s-30min. More preferably, the pH is 2.5-5.0, and even more preferably, the pH is 2.9-4.5.

[0022] Preferably, the organic pollutants include one or more organic substances such as Orange II, methylene blue, rhodamine B and phenol.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and technical effects:

[0024] The high-temperature rapid pre-oxidation activation method has an enhancing effect on common commercially available iron-based amorphous alloys and iron-based amorphous alloy strips with partially aged, rusted, and oxidized surfaces. In catalytic degradation experiments conducted under a Fenton-like system, using 0.5 g / L pre-oxidized iron-based amorphous strips, the degradation rate of Orange II was about 95% in just 2 minutes, while the degradation rate of Rhodamine B required 6 minutes of reaction time to achieve a 95% degradation rate.

[0025] Compared with other surface activation (treatment) methods for iron-based amorphous materials, such as high-temperature vacuum annealing, surface activation, and dealloying, the pre-oxidation activation method provided by the present invention has a significant effect on enhancing the degradation of azo dyes by amorphous alloys and is low in cost. According to calculations, the pre-oxidation cost of iron-based amorphous alloys required for degrading printing and dyeing wastewater containing azo dyes using this method is less than 0.5 yuan per ton of wastewater.

[0026] The method provided by the present invention has low requirements for pre-oxidation equipment, is simple to operate, has strong practicality, can continuously and batch-process iron-based amorphous alloys, is easy to promote and industrialize, and is of great significance for achieving water resource recycling, environmental governance, energy conservation and emission reduction, and sustainable development.

[0108] Example 12

[0109] The same as Example 1, except that the pH of the solution was adjusted to 4.5 instead of 3.0, and 4.8 mL of Orange II solution was taken at 0 s, 0.5 min, 1 min, 1.5 min, 2.5 min, 4 min, 6 min, 9 min, 13 min, 18 min, and 25 min after the strip was added.

[0111] Example 13

[0112] The same as Example 1, except that, in step 1): the high-temperature oxidation treatment condition is replaced from 650°C oxidation for 5 min to 850°C oxidation for 1 min, and in step 2): the sampling time is changed to 0 min, 1 min, 3 min, 5 min, 9 min, 13 min, 18 min, and 25 min.

[0114] Comparative Example 1

[0115] 1) Place 0.25g of Fe-based amorphous 1K107 ribbon in air at 200°C and let it stand for 20 minutes to simulate the state of 1K107 ribbon in service for 5-10 years at room temperature. Remove the oxidized Fe-based amorphous ribbon and cool it in air for later use as a simulated long-term service waste (aged) amorphous ribbon.

[0116] 2) Place 250 mL of a 20 mg / L Orange II aqueous solution in a 500 mL beaker. Place the beaker in a 30°C water bath and add 3 mmol / L hydrogen peroxide to adjust the pH to 3.

[0117] 3) The Orange II solution was mechanically stirred at 350 rpm, and 0.125 g of the simulated long-term service waste (aged) amorphous strip (0.5 g / L) from step 1) was added. 4.8 mL of the Orange II solution was collected at 0 min, 1 min, 3 min, 5 min, 9 min, 13 min, 18 min, and 25 min after the strip was added. The solution was filtered through a 0.22 μm aqueous polyethersulfone (PES) membrane, and the solution spectrum was measured using a UV-visible photometer. The degradation rate of Orange II in the solution at different times was calculated, and the degradation rate curve was plotted.

[0118] Figure 8 (b) shows the UV-visible absorption spectrum obtained in Comparative Example 1. It shows that Orange II does not begin to degrade within the first 25 minutes under these degradation conditions. Compared to Example 9, this indicates that the degradation capacity of the iron-based amorphous ribbon, which has been in service for 5-10 years at room temperature, is relatively poor. However, after high-temperature oxidation treatment at 650°C in air for 5 minutes, its degradation capacity is significantly improved.

[0119] Comparative Example 2

[0120] 1) Place 250 mL of a 20 mg / L Orange II aqueous solution in a 500 mL beaker. Place the beaker in a 30°C water bath and add 3 mmol / L hydrogen peroxide to adjust the pH to 3.

[0121] 2) The Orange II solution was mechanically stirred at 350 rpm, and 0.125 g of iron-based amorphous 1K107 ribbon (0.5 g / L) was added. 4.8 mL of the Orange II solution was collected at 0 min, 1 min, 3 min, 5 min, 9 min, 13 min, 18 min, 25 min, and 90 min after the addition of the ribbon. The solution was filtered through a 0.22 μm aqueous polyethersulfone (PES) membrane and the solution spectrum was measured using a UV-visible photometer. The degradation rate of Orange II in the solution at different times was calculated, and the degradation rate curve was plotted.

[0122] Figure 9The UV-visible absorption spectrum obtained in Comparative Example 2 shows that Orange II dye has an absorption peak at 485 nm, which is used to calculate the degradation rate of Orange II dye. It can be seen that Orange II does not begin to degrade within the first 25 minutes under these degradation conditions. After 90 minutes of reaction, the degradation rate of Orange II is only 72.2%. Compared with Example 1, this indicates that the iron-based amorphous ribbons, which have not been strengthened by high-temperature oxidation treatment, have relatively poor Orange II degradation capabilities. Even at a low concentration (20 mg / L) of the azo dye, degradation still takes a long time, and degradation is incomplete, failing to achieve a degradation rate exceeding 99%.
