Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of paracetamol degradation, and in particular to a method for degrading paracetamol in fresh urine using periodate. Background Art

[0002] Human urine is part of urban wastewater. Although its volume is less than 1% of the total volume, it is one of the main sources of pharmaceutical pollutants in wastewater. Paracetamol (ACE), as one of the most commonly used analgesics, has an annual global consumption of more than 140,000 tons. After patients take ACE, only 5-15% can be absorbed by the body, and 58% to 68% is excreted in the urine. However, the technology of most sewage treatment plants mainly targets substances such as nitrogen and phosphorus, and it is difficult to remove ACE efficiently. As a result, ACE is widely detected in the environment and may cause great harm to aquatic organisms, such as damaging the liver of freshwater fish and affecting the biological nervous system. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a treatment method for ACE-contaminated urine.

[0003] Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on strong oxidative free radicals (such as hydroxyl radicals (·OH)) are often used to remove refractory organic pollutants in water. However, many AOPs are significantly limited in complex media such as urine. This is because urine contains high concentrations of HCO3 - NH4 + 、Cl - Plasma, these substances will quench OH or convert it into less active species, inhibiting the degradation of pollutants. At the same time, the urea in fresh urine FU will be hydrolyzed into NH3 and NH4 under the action of microorganisms. + and HCO3 - , forming alkaline hydrolyzed urine (HU), but this process will lose some nitrogen. Given that the organic components in FU are more complex, previous studies have mostly focused on treating pollutants in HU. For example, Zhang et al. used ultraviolet light to activate peroxydisulfate (PDS) to degrade sulfonamide antibiotics in HU, and Kung et al. used sunlight to drive PDS to remove caffeine and cefotaxime from HU. For ACE in HU, Nie Minghua et al. invented a treatment method using peroxymonosulfate (PMS) (authorization announcement number: CN113087122B) and achieved good results. However, most of the above methods require the addition of multiple reagents or energy (such as oxidants, activators and light) and are only applicable to HU, limiting their large-scale application.

[0004] In recent years, research on the degradation of pollutants based on PI has gradually increased. PI is a strong oxidant with a reduction potential of +1.6V. Compared with other common oxidants (such as H2O2, O3, etc.), PI has stronger chemical stability and its solid state enables long-distance transportation and long-term storage. Most previous studies have used various activation methods to activate PI to form active species (RS) to remove pollutants. The activation methods are divided into three types: (1) homogeneous activation (Mn 2+ 、Fe 2+ , H2O2, etc.); (2) heterogeneous activation (iron-based materials, TiO2-based materials, carbon materials, zinc-based materials and other metal oxides); (3) direct activation (freezing, light, heating, alkali). For example, Li et al. used Cu2O to activate PI to remove antibiotics in water, Zhang Yue et al. used water hyacinth biochar combined with PI to remove sulfadiazine (SD) in water, and Ye et al. used sunlight combined with PI to treat Gram-positive bacteria. For HU, Cai Tianming et al. constructed a biochar combined with PI system and found that electrons can be transferred from biochar to PI and form a high-potential metastable complex (biochar-PI*), thereby effectively removing SD. However, the above methods usually require external energy or chemical consumption, are costly, have high energy consumption, and may also produce heavy metal pollution and increase the risk of secondary pollution. In order to avoid the above shortcomings, it is particularly important to develop PI treatment technology without external activation means. However, the use of PI alone to degrade pollutants such as ACE has not been reported. Summary of the Invention

[0083] from Figure 1The results show that the ACE degradation rates for the mixed solutions treated with PI / PB9, PB9, PB6, H2O2 / real FU, PI / real HU, PI / simulated HU, PMS / real FU, and PI / water were 61.63%, 2.34%, 4.52%, 26.34%, 45.85%, 56.56%, 60.45%, and 64.76%, respectively. The degradation rate reached 100.00% when using the PI / PB6 system. Notably, periodate PI exhibited a significant degradation effect on paracetamol ACE in real fresh urine FU (at a pH of 6), reaching 100.00% within 70 minutes. Similarly, periodate PI also exhibited a good degradation effect on paracetamol ACE in simulated fresh urine FU (at a pH of 6), achieving 100.00% degradation within 50 minutes. This indicates that the PI / FU system can effectively treat paracetamol ACE in a real urine system and has good application prospects.

[0084] Example 7:

[0085] In this example, the effect of the dosage of periodate PI on the degradation rate of paracetamol ACE was investigated.

[0086] like Figure 2 As shown, with Example 2 as a reference, the only difference is that the concentration of periodate PI in the mixed solution is changed to 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 4 mmol / L, respectively. After 50 minutes, the degradation rates of paracetamol ACE are 52.94%, 69.63%, 100.00%, 100.00% and 100.00%, respectively.

[0087] Example 8:

[0088] like Figure 3 As shown, with Example 2 as a reference, the only difference is that the concentration of paracetamol ACE in the mixed solution is changed to 3, 5, 7, and 9 mmol / L, respectively. After 50 minutes, the paracetamol ACE degradation rates are 100.00%, 100.00%, 90.98% and 89.53%, respectively.

[0091] Example 10:

[0092] like Figure 5As shown, with Example 2 as a reference, the only difference is that the pH value of the mixed solution is changed to 6, 7, 8 and 9, respectively. After 50 minutes, the degradation rate of paracetamol ACE decreases from 100.00% to 89.96%, 88.59%, 73.77% and 61.63%, respectively.

[0093] Example 11:

[0094] like Figure 6 As shown, with Example 2 as a reference, the only difference is that the addition method of periodate PI is changed, so that equal amounts of periodate PI are added to the mixed solution in 1, 2, 3 and 4 times, respectively. After 50 minutes, the degradation rates of ACE are 100.00%, 82.95%, 80.85% and 82.33%, respectively.

[0095] Example 12:

[0096] like Figure 7-Figure 8 As shown in the figure, paracetamol ACE and sodium periodate PI were added to fresh urine FU at room temperature (25±1℃) to ensure that their initial concentrations C0 were 5mmol / L and 2mmol / L respectively. Under the premise of ensuring that the total volume of the system was 100mL, different types of ions were added to verify their effects on ACE degradation. 44mmol / L Cl – 、15mmol / LSO4 2 – , and simultaneously add 44mmol / LCl – and 15mmol / L SO4 2– , adding 4mmol / L Ca 2+ 、4mmol / L Mg 2+ , 250mmol / L urea and 2.7mmol / L sodium citrate ions had little effect on the degradation rate of ACE after 50 minutes.

[0097] Example 13:

[0098] At room temperature (25 ± 1 ° C), paracetamol ACE and sodium periodate PI were added to real fresh urine FU to ensure that their initial concentrations C0 were 5 mmol / L and 2 mmol / L, respectively. Under the premise of ensuring that the total volume of the system was 100 mL, quenchers of different active substances were added, ascorbic acid 1, 5 and 10 mmol / L (quencher of all ROS), histidine 0.05, 0.5 and 5 mmol / L (corresponding to ROS 1 O2), phenol 0.05, 0.5 and 5 mmol / L (corresponding to ROS of IO3 and IO4), nitro blue tetrazolium 0.02, 0.05 and 0.1 mmol / L (corresponding to ROS of O2 ·-), tert-butanol 5, 10 and 15 mmol / L (corresponding to ROS is ·OH). Figures 9-11 As shown, the ROS of PI / FU system is 1 O2 and OH play the most important role 1 O2.

[0099] Example 14:

[0100] At room temperature (25±1°C), paracetamol (ACE) and sodium periodate (PI) were added to real fresh urine FU to ensure that their initial concentrations (C0) were 5 mmol / L and 2 mmol / L, respectively. Under the premise of ensuring that the total volume of the system was 100 mL, the free radical scavenger 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidone (TEMP) was added, and the generation of free radicals was analyzed using an electron paramagnetic resonance spectrometer. Figure 12 As shown, the electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum shows 1 The signal of O2 further proves that the main ROS in the PI / FU system is 1 O2.
