Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of catalysts, and specifically discloses a preparation and application method of spinel-type iron copper oxide. Background Technique
[0002] In recent years, a large number of artificially synthesized organic and inorganic pollutants have been discharged into water bodies, causing serious water pollution. Among them, the pollution of persistent and difficult-to-degrade organic pollutants is particularly serious and difficult to solve, becoming a major problem in environmental treatment and restoration. These organic pollutants have a long residence time in the environment, are not easily degraded by microorganisms, and have biological enrichment properties. They will accumulate along the food chain and ultimately endanger human health. Therefore, in the current situation, there is an urgent need for more effective technologies to remove refractory organic pollutants in wastewater.
[0003] Based on sulfate radical (SO4 - ·) advanced oxidation technology is a new type of technology developed at home and abroad in recent years and has also become one of the relatively popular wastewater treatment technologies at present. It is found that SO4 - · has strong oxidation ability, can maintain its activity in a wide pH range (4.0 - 9.0), effectively and stably contact with organic pollutants and react, can rapidly degrade most organic pollutants, and mineralize them into CO2 and inorganic acids.
[0004] Sulfite S(IV) is a desulfurization by-product. The atmospheric pollutant SO2 generated by the oxidation and release of sulfur substances, the smelting of sulfide ores, and the combustion of fossil fuels dissolves in water to form SO3 2- and HSO3 - . S(IV) is widely sourced, has a price only half that of persulfate (PS), is low in toxicity, and is easy to prepare. It can be activated to generate sulfate radical (SO4 - ·), peroxymonosulfate radical (SO5 - ·), sulfite radical (SO3 - ·) and hydroxyl radical (·OH) and other active substances with high oxidation potentials, which can rapidly and efficiently oxidize and degrade various organic pollutants. In addition, the reducing S(IV) is easily naturally oxidized to harmless sulfate in water and is not likely to produce toxic and harmful substances that cause secondary pollution. However, sulfite activation to generate sulfate radical (SO4 - ·), peroxymonosulfate radical (SO5 - ·), sulfite radical (SO3 -·) and various active substances with high oxidation potential such as hydroxyl radicals (·OH) to complete the above reactions quickly and efficiently. To oxidize and degrade various organic pollutants, a suitable catalyst is required. How to prepare a catalyst with low energy consumption, so that the prepared catalyst will not react with other substances in the wastewater, has low toxicity itself, will not cause secondary pollution, and is convenient for recycling after recovery is an urgent problem to be solved by those skilled in the art.

[0023] Example 1
[0024] Preparation of spinel-type iron copper oxide:
[0025] According to the stoichiometric ratios of the elements in the chemical formula CuFe2O4, the raw materials were weighed respectively: 1 mmol of iron(III) nitrate nonahydrate, 0.5 mmol of copper(II) nitrate trihydrate, and 1.5 mmol of citric acid.
[0026] Mix ferric nitrate nonahydrate, copper nitrate trihydrate and citric acid evenly, adjust the temperature of the water bath to 50 - 80 °C, evaporate the water, and dry the obtained transparent sol to get a gel; transfer the gel into a muffle furnace, the calcination temperature is 400 - 600 °C, the calcination time is 2 - 5 h, the heating program is from room temperature to 300 °C at a rate of 1 °C / min, hold at 300 °C for 1 - 2 h, then rapidly heat to above 400 °C, the calcination atmosphere is air, and then cool to room temperature; take out the sample, grind it, rinse it with pure water for multiple times until the solution is neutral, then transfer it into an oven, dry it at 60 - 80 °C for 8 - 20 h to obtain a powdery sample.
[0027] As Figure 1 shown, it is the X-ray powder diffraction pattern of the spinel-type iron copper oxide prepared in Example 1, and the results show that the prepared product is a pure substance composed of spinel-type iron copper oxide.
[0028] As Figure 2 shown, it is the SEM (scanning electron microscope) image of the spinel-type iron copper oxide prepared in Example 1; it can be seen that the prepared spinel-type iron copper oxide has good crystallization, uniform particles, and the particle size is 10 - 30 nm.

[0030] Apply the spinel-type iron copper oxide prepared in Example 1 to the catalyst for removing Orange II.
[0031] Experiment 1: Take 100 mL of Orange II solution with a concentration of 0.1 mM, add the prepared spinel-type iron copper oxide in an amount of 0.63 mM, and react at room temperature for 60 min.
[0032] Experiment 2: Take 100 mL of Orange II solution with a concentration of 0.1 mM, add sulfite in an amount of 5 mM, and react at room temperature for 60 min.
[0033] Experiment 3: Take 100 mL of Orange II solution with a concentration of 0.1 mM, add the spinel-type iron copper oxide in an amount of 0.63 mM, add sulfite in an amount of 5 mM, and react at room temperature for 60 min.
[0034] As Figure 3 shown, it is the comparison chart of the degradation effects of removing the organic pollutant Orange II in Experiments 1 - 3. It can be seen that the spinel-type iron copper oxide / sulfite (CuFe2O4 / SO3 2- ) system can greatly improve the efficiency of sulfite in degrading Orange II. After reacting for 60 min, the removal effects of Orange II under the conditions of sulfite alone, spinel-type iron copper oxide alone, and spinel-type iron copper oxide / sulfite are 2.1%, 4.8%, and 98.1% in sequence.

It can be seen that this system has good degradation effects on pollutants. After reacting for 60 min, the degradation rates of orange II, rhodamine B, reactive brilliant blue, and methyl orange all reached over 95.0%. Thus, it can be known that the spinel-type iron copper oxide / sulfite system has low selectivity for pollutants and has good application and development prospects.
