Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of furfural separation, and particularly relates to a metal-organic framework material and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Furfural is an important platform chemical, which is mainly used as a raw material in plastic, chemical, pharmaceutical and other industries, and its demand has been growing. Furfural is usually produced from biomass raw materials rich in hemicellulose through hydrolysis and dehydration (biomass raw materials are first catalytically hydrolyzed to produce pentose, and then the pentose is dehydrated and cyclized to produce furfural). The concentration of furfural in the reaction solution obtained by this method is very low (0.1wt%-6.0wt%), and it is difficult to separate and purify furfural. The processes for separating furfural mainly include distillation, stripping, adsorption, liquid-liquid extraction and the like. These methods are mostly energy-intensive methods, and often require complex operation processes, thereby leading to energy saving and economy of furfural separation. Selective adsorption is a more promising method for separating furfural, and has attracted widespread attention from researchers. At present, researchers have used resins, activated carbon, zeolites and other adsorbents to remove furfural from aqueous solution. However, these adsorbents have low adsorption capacity for furfural (the adsorption capacity is usually less than 300mg / g), and long equilibrium time (several hours to several days) and poor cycle stability, which are difficult to fully meet the requirements of practical application.
[0003] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop an adsorbent with high selectivity, large adsorption capacity, good cycle stability and low cost. SUMMARY
[0004] The present application aims to provide a metal-organic framework material and a preparation method and application thereof.
[0005] The technical scheme adopted by the present application is as follows:
[0006] A preparation method of a metal-organic framework material comprises the following steps:
[0007] 1) Dissolving aluminum sulfate in water to prepare an aluminum sulfate solution, and dissolving 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid (H2TDC) in N,N-dimethylformamide to prepare a 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid solution;
[0008] 2) Mixing the aluminum sulfate solution and the 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid solution, then performing a solvothermal reaction, and then performing product separation and purification to obtain the metal-organic framework material.
[0009] Preferably, the molar ratio of aluminum sulfate to 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid in step 1) is 0.25-4:1.
[0010] Further preferably, the molar ratio of the aluminum sulfate to the 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid in step 1) is 1.0-1.2:1.

[0014] Preferably, the solvothermal reaction in step 2) is performed at a temperature of 120℃-140℃, and the reaction time is 24 h-40 h.
[0015] Preferably, step 2) comprises the following operations: mixing the aluminum sulfate solution and the 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylic acid solution, then performing the solvothermal reaction, then washing the product with anhydrous ethanol multiple times, and then placing the product in an oven at 70℃-90℃ for 5 h-10 h.

[0017] An adsorbent comprising the above metal organic framework material.
[0018] Use of the above metal organic framework material for selectively adsorbing furfural in a 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 application: The metal organic framework material of the present application can be tightly combined with furfural through intermolecular forces and π-π interactions, and since its pore size is slightly smaller than that of pentose, the force on pentose is weak, 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 it has a high furfural adsorption capacity and can effectively adsorb and separate furfural.
[0021] Beneficial effects of the present application: The metal organic framework material of the present application has a large specific surface area, a large pore volume, a low surface polarity, and a low cost, and has a high selectivity for furfural and a large adsorption capacity, can realize high-selectivity and rapid screening of furfural and pentose in a sugar solution, and has good cycle stability, and has a very broad application prospect in sugar solution purification.
[0022] Specifically:
[0023] 1) The metal organic framework material of the present application has a large specific surface area (BET specific surface area of 400 m 2 / g~480 m 2 / g), a large pore volume (pore volume of 0.30 cm 3 / g~0.45 cm 3 / g), and is suitable for high selectivity and rapid screening of furfural and pentose in sugar solution.
[0024] 2) The metal organic framework material of the present application has a significant separation effect on a furfural and pentose mixed system, and the maximum adsorption amount of furfural in the mixed solution can reach 424.6 mg / g, and more than 98% of furfural can be adsorbed and separated, while pentose is hardly adsorbed, so that high selectivity and rapid screening of furfural and pentose can be achieved, and the adsorption performance is still good after 5 cycles.
