Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically relating to a cellulose-based fabric photothermal material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] With rapid industrial development, the large quantities of concentrated brine generated pose challenges to water treatment. High concentrations of brine increase the difficulty and cost of water treatment, negatively impacting the environment and ecosystems. Furthermore, concentrated brine may contain valuable resources; failure to effectively recover and utilize these resources leads to waste. To address these challenges, low-cost concentration and volume reduction methods have become urgently needed. Currently, membrane separation, thermal evaporation, and ion exchange technologies are widely used for treating concentrated brine; however, these technologies are characterized by high energy consumption, limiting their development and application and imposing significant treatment costs on enterprises. Photothermal interfacial evaporation technology utilizes solar energy to drive evaporation, offering advantages such as low energy consumption and low carbon footprint, making it a promising technology for concentrated brine concentration and volume reduction.
[0003] Solar evaporation systems can be categorized into three types: bottom-heated evaporation systems, bulk-heated evaporation systems, and interfacial-heated evaporation systems. Bottom-heated evaporation systems suffer significant solar energy loss, with the overall solar energy utilization rate of the entire solar-driven evaporation system being only 30-45%. Bulk-heated evaporation systems reduce solar energy loss to some extent, but the heating process of nanoparticles inevitably leads to heat loss to non-evaporation areas. Furthermore, carbon-based and metal-based nanoparticles have drawbacks such as difficulty in recycling, high cost, and potential secondary pollution of water bodies, hindering their large-scale application. Interfacial evaporation systems significantly reduce solar energy loss, substantially increasing the temperature of interfacial evaporation and effectively minimizing heat loss to the water body, allowing for rapid evaporation of interfacial water and thus significantly improving solar energy utilization. Therefore, solar interfacial evaporation concentration is currently one of the most promising methods for concentrating saline water and desalination.
[0004] In the design of high-efficiency interface solar steam generators, the selection of photothermal materials is crucial, and the choice of substrate for supporting these materials is particularly important. Traditional synthetic polymers, metal substrates, and semiconductors have high solar-to-thermal energy conversion efficiencies, but their high cost limits their large-scale application.
[0005] Cellulose is widely used as a photothermal carrier due to its good hydrophilicity, high mechanical strength, good flexibility, and low cost. However, in research involving cellulose-based evaporators, high photothermal conversion performance and antibacterial properties cannot be simultaneously achieved, and the performance needs further improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a cellulose-based fabric photothermal material, its preparation method and application, wherein the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material has good stability, excellent photothermal performance and antibacterial properties.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0008] This invention provides a cellulose-based fabric photothermal material, comprising: cellulose fiber fabric, a polyphenol metal coordination complex and silver nanoparticles loaded on the surface and pores of the cellulose fiber fabric;
[0009] The polyphenol metal complexes include polyphenol copper complexes, polyphenol trivalent iron complexes, and polyphenol silver complexes.
[0010] Preferably, the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material contains 1-5% by mass of copper polyphenol complex, 1-5% by mass of ferric polyphenol complex, 1-5% by mass of silver polyphenol complex, and 2-5% by mass of silver nanoparticles.
[0011] Preferably, the cellulose fiber fabric includes one or more of cotton cellulose fiber fabric, hemp cellulose fiber fabric, and wood cellulose fiber fabric.
[0012] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material described in the above technical solution, comprising the following steps:
[0013] Cellulose fiber fabric is sequentially immersed in alkaline copper salt solution, polyphenol solution, soluble iron salt solution and soluble silver salt solution, and then washed and dried to obtain cellulose-based fabric photothermal material.

[0015] Preferably, the copper salt includes one or more of copper chloride, copper nitrate, and copper sulfate.
[0016] Preferably, the polyphenols in the polyphenol solution include one or more of tannic acid, phenol-ketone polyphenols, and phenylpropane polyphenols; the concentration of the polyphenols in the polyphenol solution is 2~4 g / L.
[0017] Preferably, the soluble iron salt in the soluble iron salt solution includes one or more of ferric chloride, ferric sulfate, and ferric nitrate; the concentration of the soluble iron salt in the soluble iron salt solution is 0.5~3g / L.
[0018] The present invention also provides the application of the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material described in the above technical solution or the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material prepared by the preparation method described in the above technical solution in the treatment of saline wastewater.
[0019] The present invention also provides a thermal management enhanced interface concentration system for saline wastewater, comprising a heat collection shed, a hot chimney, and an evaporation interface; the evaporation interface is used to cover the surface of the saline wastewater; the heat collection shed is used to cover the saline wastewater; and a hot chimney is installed on the heat collection shed.
[0020] The evaporation interface is the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material described in the above technical solution or the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material prepared by the preparation method described in the above technical solution.
[0021] This invention provides a cellulose-based fabric photothermal material, comprising: a cellulose fiber fabric, polyphenol metal coordination complexes and silver nanoparticles loaded on the surface and pores of the cellulose fiber fabric; the polyphenol metal complexes include polyphenol copper complexes, polyphenol ferric complexes, and polyphenol silver complexes. The cellulose-based fabric photothermal material provided by this invention exhibits strong light absorption performance in the visible light range, with a solar-to-water vapor conversion efficiency reaching 95.2%, effectively converting light energy into heat energy, demonstrating excellent photothermal conversion performance. Furthermore, after a 20-day cyclic experiment, the evaporation rate showed little fluctuation, no obvious salt scaling appeared on the material surface, and the water evaporation rate remained stable, allowing for reuse. In addition, an antibacterial zone experiment was conducted on the material, observing the appearance of an antibacterial zone around the material, indicating that the material possesses certain antibacterial properties.
[0022] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned cellulose-based fabric photothermal material. The photothermal composite material is generated on the cellulose-based fabric by a simple soaking and coordination reduction method. The preparation process is simple, the preparation cost is low, and it is easy to prepare on a large scale.
[0023] This invention also provides the application of the aforementioned cellulose-based fabric photothermal material in a thermal management enhanced interface concentration system for saline wastewater. The evaporation rate is further enhanced by constructing a hot chimney evaporation system. Sunlight irradiates the solar collector, and the evaporation interface beneath the collector absorbs solar radiation energy transmitted through the covering layer, heating the air between the water surface and the collector cover layer. This causes the air temperature inside the collector to rise, its density to decrease, and it to rise along the chimney. Dry air surrounding the collector enters the system, creating a high-temperature air circulation flow. This increases the water vapor partial pressure difference between the water interface and the high-temperature dry air, thereby further enhancing the evaporation of brine. This invention reduces heat loss at the evaporation interface through the hot chimney structure and evaporation system, utilizing the thermal pressure generated by the hot chimney to continuously circulate air, achieving an enhanced interface evaporation effect. Tests show that the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material prepared by this invention has good wettability and air permeability during evaporation. Under one day of sunlight, the water evaporation rate of the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material can reach 1.43 kgm³. -2 h -1 In a hot chimney system, the water evaporation rate can reach 2.52 kgm³. -2 h -1 The solar-to-water vapor conversion efficiency is as high as 95.2%.

[0066] This invention further enhances the evaporation rate by constructing a hot chimney evaporation system. Sunlight illuminates the solar collector, and the evaporation interface beneath the collector absorbs solar radiation energy transmitted through the covering layer, heating the air between the water surface and the collector's covering layer. This causes the air temperature inside the collector to rise, its density to decrease, and it to rise along the chimney. Dry air surrounding the collector enters the system, creating a high-temperature air circulation flow. This increases the water vapor partial pressure difference between the water interface and the high-temperature dry air, further enhancing the evaporation of the brine. This invention reduces heat loss at the evaporation interface through the hot chimney structure and evaporation system, utilizing the thermal pressure generated by the hot chimney to continuously circulate air, achieving a more efficient interface evaporation effect. Tests show that the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material prepared by this invention exhibits good wettability and air permeability during evaporation. Under one day of sunlight, the water evaporation rate of the cellulose-based fabric photothermal material can reach 1.43 kg / m³. -2 h -1 In a hot chimney system, the water evaporation rate can reach 2.52 kg / m³. - 2 h -1 The solar-to-water vapor conversion efficiency is as high as 95.2%.
