Description

Technical Field

[0002] Traditional methods for treating radioactive wastewater include chemical precipitation, membrane filtration, ion exchange, and adsorption. Among them, the chemical precipitation method is simple and has a wide range of applicable elements, but it has the disadvantages of difficult solid-liquid separation and a large sludge yield, and the sludge needs to be further treated; when using ion exchange to treat sewage, ion exchange resins are used, and their regeneration requires the participation of chemical reagents, which will cause irreparable secondary pollution; using the adsorption method to treat sewage is simple and flexible, but the adsorption process is usually reversible, and the adsorbent needs a suitable desorption method for regeneration, and the type of adsorbent will affect the adsorption effect. Membrane filtration technology is a newly developed technology that uses driving forces such as pressure difference, temperature difference, and potential difference to separate and concentrate radioactive nuclides in wastewater, and has the advantages of environmental protection, low pollution, and excellent nanofiltration performance. Currently, membrane separation methods are commonly used to treat radioactive wastewater. For example, the prior art provides a nanofiltration membrane with a strontium rejection rate of 80% and a water flux that can reach 75L·m -2 ·h -1 ·bar -1 ; however, its rejection rate and water flux still cannot meet the requirements of practical applications.

[0061] In the formula, A is the effective membrane area (m 2 ), ∆t is the permeation time (h), P is the filtration pressure (bar); Collect the filtrate at the end of the filtration device; by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES, iCAP 7400, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Dreieich, Germany), detect the activity concentration of strontium ions in the initial aqueous strontium ion solution (denoted as C 1 ), and the activity concentration of strontium ions in the filtrate (denoted as C 2 ); The calculation formula for the rejection rate of strontium ions ( %) is:

[0062] Repeat the experiment three times, and the obtained results are shown in Table 1 and Figure 4 as follows; Table 1 Record table of water flux and rejection rate of the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane in Example 1

[0063] As can be seen from Table 1 and Figure 4 the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane provided by the present invention has a high rejection rate and a high water flux; especially in a solution with a low strontium ion concentration, the rejection rate of the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane in Example 1 can be as high as 99.88%.

[0064] Application Example 2 Use the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane of Example 1 to conduct a rejection experiment on a 10 mg / L strontium ion solution; the specific steps are as follows: Pour the 10 mg / L strontium ion solution into the feed side of the filtration device respectively, use the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane of Example 1 as the filter membrane, conduct suction filtration at a pressure of 0.1 MPa for 5 h, take the filtrate every 0.5 h, and record the time required for the same volume of suction filtration; Repeat the experiment three times, and the obtained results are shown in Table 2 and Figure 5 as follows; Table 2 Record table of water flux and rejection rate of the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane in Example 1

[0065] As can be seen from Table 2 and Figure 5It can be seen that the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane provided by the present invention can still maintain an extremely high rejection rate and water flux for strontium ion solution under long-term retention, indicating the good stability of the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane.

[0066] Application Example 3 The nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membranes of Examples 1 to 4 were respectively used to conduct a retention experiment on a 10 mg / L strontium ion solution; the specific steps are as follows: The 10 mg / L strontium ion solution was respectively poured into the feed side of the filtration device, and the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membranes of Examples 1 to 4 were respectively used as the filter membranes, and suction filtration was carried out under a pressure of 0.1 MPa, and the time required for suction filtration of the same volume was recorded; The experiment was repeated three times, and the results obtained are shown in Table 3 and Figure 6 as follows; Table 3 Record table of water flux and rejection rate of nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membranes of Examples 1 to 4

[0067] It can be seen from Table 3 and Figure 6 that the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane provided by the present invention has a high rejection rate and high water flux; and as the loading amount of exfoliated graphene oxide and zirconium phosphate increases, the rejection rate of the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane also increases, and the highest can reach 99.99%, having excellent strontium rejection rate.

[0068] Application Example 4 The nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membranes of Examples 1 and 5 to 8 were respectively used to conduct a retention experiment on a 10 mg / L strontium ion solution; the specific steps are as follows: The 10 mg / L strontium ion solution was respectively poured into the feed side of the filtration device, and the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membranes of Examples 1 and 5 to 8 were respectively used as the filter membranes, and suction filtration was carried out under a pressure of 0.1 MPa, and the time required for suction filtration of the same volume was recorded; The experiment was repeated three times, and the results obtained are shown in Table 4 and Figure 7 as follows; Table 4 Record table of water flux and rejection rate of nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membranes of Examples 1 and 5 to 8

[0069] It can be seen from Table 4 and Figure 7 that changing the dosage of phosphoric acid will affect the formation of zirconium phosphate and the performance of the membrane material by affecting its complexation with zirconium ions; the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane provided by the present invention has a high rejection rate and high water flux.

[0070] Comparative Application Example 1 Perform a retention experiment on a 10 mg / L strontium ion solution using a commercially available graphene oxide solution membrane, zirconium phosphate, and the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane of Example 1. The specific steps are as follows: Pour the 10 mg / L strontium ion solution into the feed side of the filtration device respectively. Use the commercially available graphene oxide solution membrane, zirconium phosphate, and the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane of Example 1 as the filter membranes respectively. Perform suction filtration under a pressure of 0.1 MPa, and record the time required for the same volume of suction filtration. Repeat the experiment three times, and the results obtained are shown in Table 5 and Figure 8 as follows; Table 5 Record table of water flux and retention rate of the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membranes of Example 1, commercially available graphene oxide solution membrane, and zirconium phosphate

[0071] As can be seen from Table 5 and Figure 8 it can be seen that the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane provided by the present invention has excellent performance in terms of water flux and retention rate.

[0072] In summary, the nanofiltration two-dimensional channel membrane provided by the present invention has a high retention rate and a high water flux, and the membrane material has stable performance and can fully retain strontium ions in water.

[0073] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
