Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of environmental governance, and particularly to a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Dichloromethane (DCM), as a widely used organic solvent, plays an important role in fields such as chemical engineering and plastic manufacturing. However, its high volatility causes exhaust gas emissions to pose a serious threat to the environment and human health. Existing DCM waste gas treatment technologies include catalytic oxidation, biodegradation, membrane separation, and solvent absorption methods. Among them, the solvent absorption method has attracted much attention due to its advantages such as simple operation, strong adaptability, and recyclability of the absorbent. However, due to problems such as high viscosity, low diffusion coefficient, high synthesis cost, and poor biodegradability of ionic liquids (ILs), their industrial application is limited. Therefore, it is urgent to develop absorbents with low price and outstanding absorption capacity.
[0003] In recent years, deep eutectic solvents (DESs), as a new type of green solvent, have become a research hotspot due to their low toxicity, strong designability, and simple preparation. Nonionic DESs have lower viscosity and environmental friendliness compared to ionic DESs, showing great potential in the field of gas absorption. However, existing research mainly focuses on ionic DESs, and there are still deficiencies in the application of nonionic DESs in DCM absorption. Therefore, developing a DCM absorbent based on nonionic DESs and clarifying its absorption mechanism are the keys to realizing the green treatment of DCM waste gas. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention overcomes the deficiencies of the prior art and provides a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent and a preparation method thereof.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent, comprising: a hydrogen bond donor and a hydrogen bond acceptor,
[0006] The hydrogen bond donor is one of triethylene glycol, levulinic acid, triethanolamine, and diethylene glycol butyl ether;
[0007] The hydrogen bond acceptor is sulfolane.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the molar mass ratio between the hydrogen bond acceptor and the hydrogen bond donor is 1:1 - 3.
[0009] A preparation method of a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent, comprising the following steps:
[0010] S1: Heat the hydrogen bond acceptor and hydrogen bond donor in the deep eutectic solvent, stir and mix them to form a uniform sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent.
[0011] S2: Dry the sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent obtained in S1 to obtain a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in S1, the heating temperature is 65°C - 75°C, the stirring speed is 300 - 600 r / min, and the time is 1 - 2 h.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, in S2, the drying temperature is 60 - 90°C, and the drying time is 12 - 24 h.
[0014] The present invention solves the defects existing in the background technology and has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] (1) The present invention provides a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent and its preparation method. By using sulfolane (SUL) as the hydrogen bond acceptor to prepare the deep eutectic solvent absorbent, sulfolane has low toxicity and good biodegradability, meeting the design requirements of green solvents. The toxicity of SUL is significantly lower than that of traditional ionic liquids and some organic solvents, and its decomposition rate in the environment is relatively high, reducing the long-term pollution risk. In addition, its synthesis process is mature and the raw materials are easily available, reducing the cost of industrial applications. During the actual absorption of dichloromethane (DCM), the sulfonyl group of SUL has a strong hydrogen bond accepting ability, which can form stable hydrogen bonds with the hydrogen atoms of dichloromethane, significantly improving the absorption efficiency, and thus obtaining an absorbent that combines environmental friendliness and high absorption capacity.
[0016] (2) The present invention provides a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent and its preparation method. By using diethylene glycol butyl ether (DGBE) as the hydrogen bond donor for preparing the nonionic deep eutectic solvent, DGBE has multiple functional groups such as hydroxyl and alkyl due to its molecular structure itself. These structures endow it with unique polar and nonpolar dual characteristics. The hydroxyl group provides the hydrogen bond donor ability, while the alkyl group interacts with the nonpolar region of DCM through van der Waals forces. It can be seen from the experiments that the nonpolar region of DGBE forms extensive van der Waals forces with the hydrophobic part of DCM, and cooperates with the hydrogen bond interaction of SUL to improve the overall absorption efficiency. In addition, the low viscosity property of DGBE significantly improves the fluidity of the solvent, avoiding mass transfer limitations caused by high viscosity, and making it perform excellently in a continuous absorption tower.
[0017] (3) The present invention provides a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent and its preparation method. By using sulfolane as a hydrogen bond acceptor, the absorbent does not require complex ionization steps during the synthesis process and can form a homogeneous liquid only through physical mixing, with simple operation and low energy consumption. In addition, the nonionic deep eutectic solvent has better biodegradability, reducing the environmental burden. By adjusting the molar ratio of the hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) to the hydrogen bond donor (HBD), the solvent density and viscosity can be further optimized, enhancing the adaptability to high-concentration DCM waste gas. This design flexibility provides a broad space for the development of customized solvents.
[0018] (4) The present invention provides a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent and its preparation method through the interaction mechanism between the hydrogen bond acceptor SUL and the hydrogen bond donor (DGBE). The oxygen atom of SUL acts as a strong hydrogen bond acceptor to bind with the hydrogen atom of DCM, while the nonpolar region in the HBDs enhances adsorption through van der Waals forces. The electrostatic interaction is highly correlated with the hydrogen bond strength, providing a theoretical basis for optimizing the solvent design. This precise regulation ability at the molecular level ensures the high efficiency and scalability of the absorbent. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0150] 100 g of a mixed solution of SUL-DGBE (1:4).
[0151] Based on the above raw materials, this example provides a preparation method of a sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbent. The specific steps are as follows:
[0152] S1. Mix 0.13 mol of SUL with 0.52 mol of DGBE reagent;
[0153] S2. Place the mixed reagent in a flask and heat and stir it through a magnetic stirring water bath. Heat and stir it at 70 °C and 450 r / min for 1 h to prepare a deep eutectic solvent;
[0154] S3. Place the prepared deep eutectic solvent in an oven at 80 °C and dry it for 12 h to remove moisture, obtaining the deep eutectic solvent of SUL-DGBE(1:4).
[0155] S4. Measure the viscosity of the prepared deep eutectic solvent SUL-DGBE(1:4) at 25 °C. The experimental results show that the viscosity of SUL-DGBE(1:4) under this condition is 9.2 mPa·s. Compared with 7.6 mPa·s of SUL-DGBE(1:3) in the figure, the viscosity increases. Through analysis, the high proportion of diethylene glycol butyl ether content may change the solvation ability in the deep eutectic solvent, affecting the intermolecular interaction. In the deep eutectic solvent formed by SUL-DGBE, sulfolane and diethylene glycol butyl ether molecules have weak interactions. During the process of the ratio of sulfolane to diethylene glycol butyl ether increasing from 1:1 to 1:3, diethylene glycol butyl ether acts as a hydrogen bond donor and interacts with the hydrogen bond acceptor sulfolane, so the viscosity of the solvent gradually decreases. When the ratio of sulfolane to diethylene glycol butyl ether reaches 1:4, the addition of excessive diethylene glycol butyl ether makes its own long-chain ether structure become the dominant component of the system, affecting the interaction between sulfolane and diethylene glycol butyl ether molecules, resulting in an increase in viscosity. Finally, according to the experimental data, the deep eutectic solvent with low viscosity has strong fluidity in the reaction system, promotes the diffusion of the absorbed waste gas, and improves the absorption efficiency of dichloromethane waste gas. At the same time, the deep eutectic solvent with low viscosity reduces energy consumption in practical applications and has good application prospects. To sum up, choosing the deep eutectic solvent SUL-DGBE(1:3) with low viscosity for further exploration can effectively enhance the mass transfer efficiency, improve the regeneration performance and reduce energy consumption.

[0158] Experimental Example 15
[0159] In the simulated industrial waste gas treatment system, in this experiment, four sulfolane-based nonionic deep eutectic solvent absorbents were respectively used to conduct continuous absorption experiments on dichloromethane through a packed tower with an inner diameter of 25 mm and a 4×4 mmθ ring packing height of 60 cm (under the conditions of 25°C and one standard atmosphere). From the results, it can be known that the SUL-DGBE deep eutectic solvent has the best absorption effect on dichloromethane. On this basis, the regenerability of this absorbent was verified through continuous absorption / desorption cycle experiments. After 10 cycles, the absorption capacity of the absorbent did not change significantly, confirming that the absorbent in this study has a certain regenerative capacity; its good dichloromethane absorption performance and regenerability prove that the SUL-DGBE(1:3) deep eutectic solvent is a promising waste gas treatment absorbent.
