Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of environmental pollution control, and in particular to a dual-path heavy metal fixation and removal method driven by a photoelectrochemical process. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of industrialization and urbanization, various pollutants released by human activities are increasing, especially heavy metal pollution, which poses an increasingly serious threat to the environment and human health. For example, lead (Pb), as a common heavy metal pollutant, is widely present in batteries, pigments, coatings, chemicals and electronic waste. Heavy metals are highly toxic and persistent, and can exist in water environments and soils for a long time, and accumulate through the food chain, causing great harm to ecosystems and human health. Therefore, how to efficiently and sustainably remove heavy metal pollution has become an urgent problem to be solved.
[0003] Traditional methods for heavy metal pollution control mainly include chemical precipitation, ion exchange, adsorption, electrochemical and bioremediation. Although these methods can remove heavy metal ions to a certain extent, they often have problems such as low treatment efficiency, complex operation, high cost and secondary pollution, which are difficult to meet the needs of practical applications. For example, chemical precipitation is prone to produce a large amount of precipitate, which requires further treatment; ion exchange and adsorption methods are inefficient and difficult to regenerate; electrochemical methods have high energy consumption; bioremediation methods have shortcomings such as long treatment time and limited scope of application. In recent years, photoelectrochemical technology has gradually become a hot topic in heavy metal pollution control research due to its high efficiency and environmental protection. Photoelectrochemical technology achieves efficient degradation and removal of pollutants through the synergistic effect of light energy and electrical energy. However, the existing photoelectrochemical methods mainly focus on the degradation of pollutants, and there is little research on the fixation and removal of heavy metal ions. In addition, a single photoelectrochemical process is difficult to simultaneously meet the needs of efficient fixation and removal of heavy metal ions.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop more efficient and sustainable methods for controlling heavy metal pollution. Summary of the invention
