Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of furfural separation, and in particular to a metal organic framework material and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Furfural is an important platform chemical, mainly used as a raw material in the plastics, chemical, pharmaceutical and other industries, and its demand has been growing. Furfural is usually made from hemicellulose-rich biomass raw materials through hydrolysis and dehydration (the biomass raw materials are first catalytically hydrolyzed to produce pentose, and the pentose is then dehydrated and cyclized to produce furfural). The concentration of furfural in the reaction solution obtained by this method is very low (the concentration is 0.1wt% to 6.0wt%), and the separation and purification of furfural is difficult. The processes for furfural separation mainly include distillation, stripping, adsorption, liquid-liquid extraction, etc. Most of these methods are energy-intensive methods and often require complex operating procedures, resulting in furfural separation being neither energy-saving nor economical. Selective adsorption is a more promising method for furfural separation and has attracted widespread attention from researchers. At present, researchers have used adsorbents such as resins, activated carbon, and zeolites to remove furfural from aqueous solutions. However, these adsorbents have low adsorption capacity for furfural (the adsorption amount is usually less than 300mg / g), long equilibrium time (several hours to several days), and poor cyclic stability, which makes it difficult to fully meet the requirements of practical applications.

[0003] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop an adsorbent with high selectivity, large adsorption capacity, good cyclic stability and low cost. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a metal organic framework material and a preparation method and application thereof.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0006] A method for preparing a metal organic framework material comprises the following steps:

[0007] 1) Aluminum sulfate was dissolved in water to prepare an aluminum sulfate solution, and 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid (H 2 TDC) was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide to prepare a 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid solution;

[0008] 2) The aluminum sulfate solution and the 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid solution are mixed, and then a solvent thermal reaction is carried out, and then the product is separated and purified to obtain a metal organic framework material.

[0009] Preferably, in step 1), the molar ratio of aluminum sulfate to 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid is 0.25 to 4:1.

[0010] Further preferably, in step 1), the molar ratio of aluminum sulfate to 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid is 1.0-1.2:1.

[0011] Preferably, in step 1), the volume ratio of water to N,N-dimethylformamide is 3 to 5:1.

[0012] Preferably, the concentration of the aluminum sulfate solution in step 1) is 0.01 g / mL to 0.2 g / mL.

[0013] Preferably, the concentration of the 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid solution in step 1) is 0.01 g / mL to 0.2 g / mL.

[0014] Preferably, the solvent thermal reaction in step 2) is carried out at a temperature of 120° C. to 140° C., and the reaction time is 24 h to 40 h.

[0015] Preferably, step 2) comprises the following operations: mixing the aluminum sulfate solution and the 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid solution, performing a solvent thermal reaction, washing the product with anhydrous ethanol for multiple times, and then baking in an oven at 70° C. to 90° C. for 5 h to 10 h.

[0016] A metal organic framework material is prepared by the above preparation method.

[0017] An adsorbent comprises the metal organic framework material.

[0018] An application of the metal organic framework material as described above for selectively adsorbing furfural in sugar solution.

[0019] Preferably, the components in the sugar solution include furfural and at least one of glucose, xylose, arabinose, fructose, mannose and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural.

[0020] Principle of the present invention: The metal organic framework material of the present invention can be tightly combined with furfural through intermolecular forces and π-π interactions, and because its pore size is slightly smaller than pentose, the force on pentose is weaker, thereby achieving the effect of screening furfural and pentose. In addition, the metal organic framework material has a large specific surface area and a large pore volume, so that it has a high furfural adsorption capacity and can effectively adsorb and separate furfural.

[0021] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the metal organic framework material of the present invention has a large specific surface area, a large pore volume, a low surface polarity, and a low cost; it has a high selectivity for furfural and a large adsorption capacity; it can achieve high-selectivity and rapid screening of furfural and pentoses in sugar solution; and it has good cyclic stability, and has a very broad application prospect in sugar solution purification.

[0022] Specifically:

[0023] 1) The metal organic framework material of the present invention has a large specific surface area (BET specific surface area is 400m 2 / g~480m 2 / g), large pore volume (pore volume is 0.30cm 3 / g~0.45cm 3 / g), suitable for high-selectivity and rapid screening of furfural and pentose in sugar solution;

[0024] 2) The metal organic framework material of the present invention has a significant separation effect on the mixed system of furfural and pentoses. The maximum adsorption amount of furfural in the mixed solution can reach 424.6 mg / g, and it can adsorb and separate more than 98% of furfural, while it hardly adsorbs pentoses, and can achieve high-selectivity and rapid screening of furfural and pentoses, and still has good adsorption performance after 5 cycles of use.

The mixture was covered with a sealing cap and stirred at 24°C for 30 min to reach adsorption equilibrium. The stirring speed was 200 r / min. The metal organic framework material was washed with anhydrous ethanol for 3 times for desorption and regeneration. Each washing was allowed to stand for 10 min to allow the solvent to be fully exchanged. The mixture was then transferred to an oven at 80°C and dried for 6 h. The above experimental conditions were repeated for adsorption and separation. The mixture was recycled for 5 times. The adsorbed liquid was filtered using a syringe equipped with a 0.22 μm water filter. The clear liquid (adsorbed liquid of different cycles) was quantitatively analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography.

[0051] Test results: After the metal organic framework material has been circulated for 5 times, the adsorption amount of furfural can still reach 89.6% of the initial adsorption amount, indicating that the metal organic framework material of the present invention has good cyclic stability.
