Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of adsorption membrane preparation and seawater nuclear pollutant removal, and particularly relates to a cesium adsorption membrane and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Radioactive nuclide pollution caused by nuclear waste leakage and other accidents, especially radioactive nuclide cesium-137 (Cs), is extremely easy to enter the human body through the food chain and food web due to a long half-life (> 30 years) and high solubility, thus causing diseases such as cancer, leukemia and kidney damage, and seriously threatening environmental safety and people's health. 137 Cs), is extremely easy to enter the human body through the food chain and food web due to a long half-life (> 30 years) and high solubility, thus causing diseases such as cancer, leukemia and kidney damage, and seriously threatening environmental safety and people's health.

[0003] Biological treatment, adsorption and membrane separation technology are widely used for Cs removal in water bodies, and compared with the first two methods, the membrane separation technology has the advantages of high interception, low secondary pollution, simple operation and strong adaptability. However, the removal rate of Cs + by the traditional nanofiltration membrane (such as NF90 and NF270) is less than 83%. Prussian blue (PB), as a typical representative of ferricyanide adsorbent, exhibits excellent selective adsorption characteristics of Cs + because its lattice size matches the hydration radius of cesium ions (Cs + ). The biocompatibility and environmental friendliness of PB make it a green and safe reagent in drinking water treatment. However, PB as an adsorbent alone faces two major challenges: first, its ultrafine powder form increases the pressure drop of the fixed bed reactor and may cause loss of PB; second, although PB has high selectivity for Cs + , the concentration of Cs + in natural water bodies is much lower than that of background ions, which limits its adsorption efficiency and economy. Preparing PB into a membrane material can to some extent reduce its loss, however, the current PB membrane material and its preparation technology has not realized large-scale application, and there are problems such as long preparation period, poor compatibility with the base membrane, easy peeling of the membrane layer, and the adsorption efficiency in the environment with high concentration of background ions has not been determined.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to develop new materials and preparation technologies to improve the adsorption performance and durability of PB membrane and promote efficient adsorption of cesium ions. SUMMARY

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to provide a cesium adsorption membrane and a preparation method and application thereof to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the present application provides the following solutions:

[0007] One of the technical solutions of the present application: a cesium adsorption film, comprising a porous base film, a Prussian blue (PB) layer and a polyamide skin layer arranged in sequence.

[0008] The porous base film serves as a carrier, which can solve the problem of difficult recovery of PB particles and improve the utilization rate of PB. The polyamide layer as the skin layer not only protects the PB layer but also plays a role in retaining background ions to reduce their interference with cesium adsorption. That is, by combining the supporting effect of the porous base film, the adsorption performance of the PB layer (the PB layer provides adsorption sites to achieve cesium adsorption), and the selective separation performance and protection performance of the polyamide skin layer, on the one hand, the problems of easy agglomeration and difficult recovery of PB particles can be alleviated, and on the other hand, the interference of other background ions with the PB layer adsorbing cesium can be reduced to improve the overall cesium removal performance.

[0009] The second technical solution of the present application: a preparation method of the above-mentioned cesium adsorption film, comprising the following steps:

[0010] The porous base film is soaked in an aqueous iron salt solution, then a potassium ferrocyanide aqueous solution is sprayed on the surface of the porous base film to form a Prussian blue layer, and a porous base film / Prussian blue composite film is obtained; the porous base film / Prussian blue composite film is soaked in a composite aqueous solution of a polyamine and an iron salt, then a polyacyl chloride organic solution is sprayed on the surface of the Prussian blue layer to form a polyamide skin layer, and a porous base film / Prussian blue / polyamide composite film is obtained, which is the cesium adsorption film.

[0011] Further, the concentration of the iron salt in the aqueous iron salt solution is 0.05-0.3 mol / L.

[0012] Further, the aqueous iron salt solution further comprises tannic acid with a concentration of 0.005-0.5 g / 100 mL.

[0013] Tannic acid (TA) is a natural polyphenol compound containing o-benzene triol groups, which strongly interacts with the generated PB particles through coordination, thereby enhancing the compatibility between PB particles and making the PB assembly structure more compact. In addition, thanks to its universal surface binding ability, TA can firmly adhere to a variety of substrate materials, significantly improving the adhesion strength between the PB assembly and the supporting material.

[0014] Further, the soaking time of the porous base film in the aqueous iron salt solution is 30-120 min.

[0015] Further, the concentration of the potassium ferrocyanide aqueous solution is 0.1-0.5 mol / L.

[0019] Further, the time for soaking the porous base film / Prussian blue layer composite film in the complex aqueous solution of the polyamine and the iron salt is 15-60min.

[0020] Further, the polybasic acid chloride in the polybasic acid chloride organic solution comprises one or more of trimesoyl chloride, 2,6-pyridine dicarbonyl chloride and 2,6-dichloropyridine-3-carbonyl chloride.

[0021] Further, the concentration of the polybasic acid chloride in the polybasic acid chloride organic solution is 0.02-0.1wt%.

[0022] Further, the spraying of the aqueous potassium ferrocyanide solution on the surface of the porous base film is performed by an ultrasonic spraying device, and the parameters include: the spraying power is 60-100%(1% equals 26W), the height of the nozzle from the surface of the porous base film is 2-7cm, and the spraying speed is 1-48mL / min (i.e. 1-48mL of the aqueous potassium ferrocyanide solution is sprayed per minute).

[0023] Further, the spraying of the polybasic acid chloride organic solution on the surface of the Prussian blue layer is performed by an ultrasonic spraying device, and the parameters include: the spraying power is 60-100%, the height of the nozzle from the surface of the Prussian blue layer is 2-7cm, and the spraying speed is 0.25-12mL / min.

[0024] The present application adopts the ultrasonic spraying technology (i.e. the method of spraying by an ultrasonic spraying device) to assist the preparation of the PB layer and the polyamide skin layer, uses ultrasonic waves to atomize the solution into micron or nanometer level droplets, constructs a micro / nano phase interface between the two phases, can control the contact area and the diffusion rate, and can effectively control the crystallization rate, the coordination environment and the film thickness of the PB. Among them, by adjusting the spraying parameters (such as the volume and time of the spraying solution), the nucleation and growth rate of the PB can be dynamically controlled, and the defects (such as lattice dislocation or heterogeneous structure) caused by rapid crystallization in the traditional method can be avoided; the mixing of the reaction ions and the solution is more uniform during the spraying process, which can make the coordination reaction efficiently carried out at the interface, and avoid the local reactant deficiency or aggregation problem that may occur in the solution method; by adjusting the spraying power, the solution volume and the spraying time, the film thickness can be accurately controlled, and the layer-by-layer deposition characteristics of the spraying avoid the thickness unevenness caused by the diffusion limitation in the traditional immersion method.

[0025] Further, the spraying amount of the aqueous potassium ferrocyanide solution is 0.080-0.360 mL / cm 2 (i.e. the spraying amount on the porous base film per unit area (1 cm 2 ) is 0.080-0.360 mL).

[0026] Further, the spraying amount of the polyacyl chloride organic solution is 0.020-0.090 mL / cm 2 .

[0027] Further, the soaking treatment is carried out at room temperature.

[0028] Further, after the polyacyl chloride organic solution is sprayed on the surface of the Prussian blue layer, the steps of washing and heat treatment are further included.

[0029] Further, the temperature of the heat treatment is 80℃, and the time is 60-120 s.

[0030] The third technical solution of the present application is the application of the above-mentioned cesium adsorption film in adsorbing cesium ions in water.

[0031] Further, the application includes the following steps:

[0032] The aqueous solution containing cesium ions is passed through the cesium adsorption film under pressure to achieve the adsorption of cesium ions.

[0033] Further, the pressure ranges from 0.1 to 1 MPa.

[0034] Optionally, the aqueous solution containing cesium ions is seawater contaminated by cesium ions.

[0035] Further, the concentration of cesium ions in the aqueous solution containing cesium ions is 0.5-3 ppm.

[0036] Further, the pH value of the aqueous solution containing cesium ions is 2-11.

[0037] Optionally, the aqueous solution containing cesium ions further contains sodium ions, potassium ions, magnesium ions and calcium ions, each with a concentration of 0.5-3 ppm.

[0038] Further, the adsorption is carried out at room temperature.

[0039] The present application discloses the following technical effects:

[0040] The present invention provides a cesium adsorption membrane, comprising a porous base membrane, a Prussian blue (PB) layer, and a polyamide cortex layer, which are sequentially arranged. The porous base membrane can serve as a support and carrier, solving the problem of difficult recovery of PB particles. The polyamide cortex layer can intercept divalent ions in seawater, reducing the impact of other ions on cesium adsorption. The polyamide cortex layer can further protect the PB layer, improving the durability of the PB layer. In summary, the cesium adsorption membrane prepared by the present invention can, on the one hand, alleviate the problems of easy agglomeration and difficult recovery of PB particles, thereby improving the dispersibility, stability, and reusability of the adsorbent; on the other hand, the polyamide cortex layer can improve its ability to resist background ion interference, thereby improving the adsorption effect of the adsorption membrane.

[0041] The present invention utilizes ultrasonic spray technology (i.e., spraying using an ultrasonic spray device) to assist in the preparation of the PB layer and polyamide skin layer. Ultrasonic spray-assisted interfacial reaction alleviates the problems of PB particle agglomeration, long construction period, and poor compatibility with the base membrane. Ultrasonic spray technology can also reduce the thickness of the prepared polyamide skin layer, securing the PB layer to prevent it from falling off without affecting its adsorption capacity, thereby enhancing the membrane's filtration performance. The technical solution of the present invention is a novel approach that combines membrane separation and adsorption processes.

[0042] The cesium adsorption membrane of the present invention can achieve efficient adsorption of cesium ions in water, with a cesium removal rate of ≥97% for a cesium ion solution with a concentration of 0.5-3 ppm (i.e., a single salt solution), and a cesium removal rate of ≥96% for a mixed solution of cesium ions and other metal ions with a concentration of 0.5-3 ppm (i.e., a mixed salt solution, mainly containing metal cations such as cesium ions, sodium ions, potassium ions, magnesium ions, and calcium ions, and anions such as chloride ions).

[0043] The cesium adsorption membrane prepared by the present invention has excellent cesium removal performance, indicating its feasibility of application in the field of cesium removal from seawater. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0093] Comparative Example 5

[0094] The porous substrate was immersed in an aqueous ferric chloride solution (prepared from ferric chloride, tannic acid and water, wherein the concentration of ferric chloride was 0.1 mol / L and the concentration of tannic acid was 0.01 g / 100 mL) at room temperature for 60 min, and then the porous substrate was taken out and the residual solution on the surface of the porous substrate was removed by using a roller; the potassium ferrocyanide aqueous solution (prepared from potassium ferrocyanide and water, concentration of 0.3 mol / L) was uniformly and evenly sprayed onto the surface of the porous substrate by using an ultrasonic spraying device under the conditions that the spraying power was 90%, the height of the nozzle from the surface of the porous substrate was 4 cm, and the spraying speed was 5 mL / min, and the spraying amount was 0.220 mL / cm 2 to form a PB layer on the surface of the porous substrate, thereby obtaining a porous substrate / PB composite membrane; the porous substrate / PB composite membrane was immersed in an aqueous piperazine solution (prepared from piperazine and water, wherein the concentration of piperazine was 0.1 wt%, i.e., the use of ferric chloride and tannic acid was omitted) for 30 min, and during the immersion process, the blue color on the surface of the porous substrate / PB composite membrane gradually faded, after the immersion was completed, the porous substrate / PB composite membrane was taken out and the residual solution on the surface of the PB layer was removed by using a roller; subsequently, the trimesoyl chloride-n-hexane solution (concentration of 0.1 wt%) was uniformly and evenly sprayed onto the surface of the PB layer by using a spraying device under the conditions that the spraying power was 90%, the height of the nozzle from the surface of the PB layer was 4 cm, and the spraying speed was 0.5 mL / min, and the spraying amount was 0.022 mL / cm 2, thus forming a polyamide skin layer on the surface of the PB layer; then the surface of the membrane was rinsed with n-hexane, and the membrane was heat treated at a temperature of 80°C for 60s to obtain a cesium adsorption membrane (i.e., a porous base membrane / Prussian blue / polyamide composite membrane), and after heat treatment, the membrane was stored in deionized water.

[0095] In the present comparative example, it was found that during the process of standing and soaking the porous base membrane / PB composite membrane in the piperazine aqueous solution, the blue color on the surface of the porous base membrane / PB composite membrane gradually faded, which may be because when the PB was in contact with the piperazine aqueous solution, the nitrogen atoms in the piperazine molecules may have coordinated with the iron ions in the PB, thus changing the original coordination structure of the PB. This change in structure may lead to the dissolution of the PB. However, in the example of the present application, ferric chloride was added to the piperazine solution, which is a trivalent iron salt and can undergo complexation with the piperazine molecules in the piperazine solution. This complexation reaction may consume the piperazine molecules in the piperazine solution that can interact with the PB, thus reducing the destruction of the PB structure by piperazine. That is, the presence of ferric chloride weakens the interaction between the piperazine molecules in the piperazine solution and the PB layer, thereby protecting the structure and color of the PB layer. Therefore, the phenomenon in the present comparative example does not exist in the example.
