[0054] The use status of the present invention is as follows: the present invention has a reasonable and simple structure, low production cost, and convenient installation. In the graphene raw material processing process, firstly, graphite powder, concentrated sulfuric acid and sodium nitrate are put into a specific reaction container in proportion. After the stirring device is turned on, the raw materials are quickly mixed. Then, the temperature of the reaction container is accurately controlled at 0-5°C, and potassium permanganate solution is slowly dripped in. The dripping speed is strictly controlled to maintain low temperature stability. Continuous stirring for several hours promotes the successful oxidation of graphite to graphite oxide. Subsequently, a large amount of deionized water is used to dilute the graphite oxide. Multiple washing and filtering operations are performed to completely remove the impurity ions therein. The treated graphite oxide is placed in a high-energy ball mill. Under the strong grinding action, its structure The ground graphite oxide is gradually refined and then transported to the magnetic separation device for magnetic separation. When the magnetic separation device is used, the graphite oxide is first added to the feeding funnel 1 for grinding, and then the ground graphite oxide enters the conveying channel 22 through the drop port 27, and then the motor 1 25 is started to drive the driven gear 24 and the screw rod 23 to rotate through the driving gear 26, and the rotation of the screw rod 23 can transport the ground graphite oxide to the diversion groove 28, and then the diversion plate 29 is diverted and evenly enters the movable shell 212, and then the started motor 216 drives the turntable 215 to rotate, and the rotation of the turntable 215 is connected through the connecting shaft 217. The vertical guide groove 214 drives the movable shell 212 to move repeatedly in the longitudinal direction as a whole, so that the incoming graphite oxide can be screened and scattered, which makes it easier for the graphite oxide to be evenly spread on the conveyor belt 1 53, thereby ensuring the efficiency and quality of subsequent magnetic separation. The conveying magnetic separation mechanism 5 set here can evenly convey the graphite oxide to the conveyor belt 3 75, and then the conveyor belt 3 75 conveys the graphite oxide to the lower side of the electromagnetic suction cup 56 for iron-based metal adsorption, and the remaining graphite oxide continues to be conveyed by the conveyor belt 3 75 and finally falls into the collection box 2 79 for collection. In addition, as the conveying magnetic separation mechanism 5 works, the adsorbed iron-based metal can be conveyed to the iron On the collecting mechanism 6, when the iron-based metal is separated from the electromagnetic suction cup 56, it will directly fall onto the conveyor belt 2 63, so that the iron-based metal can be transported to the collecting box 1 66 for collection through the conveyor belt 2 63, which improves the convenience during use. After the magnetic separation is completed, the graphite oxide is dispersed in water and subjected to ultrasonic treatment to form a graphene oxide suspension. Then, a reducing agent is added to the suspension. Under the reaction conditions of 80-120°C, the oxygen-containing functional groups are reduced to carbon atoms, and graphene is successfully obtained. Finally, the graphene is washed and filtered to remove unreacted reducing agent and impurities, and then vacuum dried or freeze-dried to finally obtain a graphene powder or film product.
