Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of low-carbon and environmental protection technology, and specifically relates to photothermal interface water evaporation technology, specifically a photothermal micro-electrolysis float material and its preparation method and application. Background Technology

[0002] Coal chemical wastewater is complex in composition, highly toxic, and difficult to treat, posing a serious threat to the ecological environment and public health. Even after secondary biological treatment, coal chemical wastewater still contains a large amount of organic pollutants, making it difficult to meet discharge standards and requiring advanced treatment. Traditional advanced wastewater treatment methods include coagulation sedimentation, adsorption, catalytic oxidation, and membrane treatment. These methods are often accompanied by high costs, large-scale use of chemical reagents, and membrane fouling. Therefore, finding a low-cost, simple, environmentally friendly, and highly effective advanced treatment technology for coal chemical wastewater has become an important research objective.

[0003] In recent years, photothermal interface water evaporation technology has shown broad application prospects in wastewater treatment due to its unique advantages of efficiently utilizing solar energy to drive water evaporation while simultaneously accelerating interfacial physicochemical reactions through thermal convection. This technology is not only low-carbon and environmentally friendly, but also features low maintenance and operating costs, and high and stable performance. Through reasonable design of the morphology and composition of photothermal materials, the water evaporation rate at the photothermal interface can reach 3.0 kg•m³. -2 •h -1 The above demonstrates a significant increase in water distillation purification speed. However, single photothermal interface water evaporation technology still has certain limitations in the deep treatment of coal chemical wastewater, especially in the separation of VOCs and water. Due to the significant volatility of VOCs, single photothermal interface water evaporation is insufficient to achieve efficient VOCs / water separation, and may even lead to VOCs enrichment in the distilled water. Therefore, how to prepare advanced photothermal interface water evaporation materials to improve VOCs / water separation efficiency has become an important research direction.
