Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of environmental functional materials, and particularly to a preparation method and application of a cerium-doped goethite adsorption material. The adsorption material realizes the efficient capture and removal of extracellular antibiotic resistance genes under complex water environment conditions through controllable doping and surface modification technologies, and is applicable to the treatment of complex water environments. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, the spread of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in water bodies has become a major challenge in the global public health field. The 2021 report of the World Health Organization (WHO) pointed out that the number of deaths caused by drug-resistant bacterial infections exceeds 1.27 million every year, and is expected to climb to 10 million by 2050. Among them, extracellular antibiotic resistance genes (eARGs) exist widely in the water environment in the form of plasmids, free DNA fragments, etc. Their environmental persistence (half-life can reach several weeks to several months) and horizontal transfer potential are significantly higher than those of intracellular ARGs. eARGs can enter the human body through drinking water, irrigation water and other channels, inducing pathogenic bacteria to acquire drug resistance and seriously threatening the safety of the medical system. Currently, the removal technologies for eARGs in water bodies mainly include advanced oxidation processes, biodegradation methods, and adsorption methods. The technical bottlenecks are as follows: Advanced oxidation processes such as ultraviolet (UV), persulfate (PS), and Fenton can destroy the DNA strand structure through free radical attacks, but they have significant defects, such as the risk of by-products. Hydroxyl radicals (·OH) attack organic substances indiscriminately and may degrade large molecular eARGs into smaller fragments (<500bp) that are more easily taken up by bacteria, which instead promotes the spread of resistance. Additionally, this method is costly, consumes a large amount of electrical energy when treating water bodies, and requires continuous addition of chemical reagents (such as H2O2), resulting in rising operating costs. Biodegradation methods such as biofilm technology functionalized with phages and nucleases have the advantage of specific recognition, but functional enzymes have poor tolerance in complex environments, and the environmental release of genetically engineered bacteria may also trigger ecological safety disputes. In contrast, the adsorption method does not require other energy or reaction reagents, is simple and green, and has great development potential. However, traditional adsorption materials also have limitations. For example, activated carbon has low efficiency and poor selectivity; although nano-zero-valent iron (nZVI) has the ability to reduce and degrade, it is easily oxidized and inactivated under aerobic conditions and will cause DNA strand breakage to produce shorter fragments that are more easily transferred; eARGs carry a strong negative charge (Zeta potential ≈ -30mV) in natural water bodies (pH 7.0 - 8.0), while the isoelectric points (pHpzc) of traditional metal oxide adsorbents (such as Al2O3, Fe3O4) are mostly higher than 8.0, resulting in electrostatic repulsion; although commercial anion exchange resins can capture DNA through electrostatic attraction, they are significantly affected by the competitive adsorption of humic acid. Therefore, it is very necessary to seek more effective and reliable adsorbents to achieve the efficient removal of free eARGs. Goethite (FeOOH) is regarded as a potential adsorbent due to its environmental friendliness and rich surface hydroxyl groups, but its inherent properties severely limit its adsorption efficiency for eARGs, such as surface charge mismatch, pore size mismatch, and environmental sensitivity. Based on the above defects, the present invention selects cerium (Ce) as the doping element, and its unique physical and chemical properties break through the limitations of traditional adsorption materials through the following mechanisms: (1) Enrichment of active sites and coordination bonding. After Ce element doping, the surface hydroxyl density can be increased, or oxygen vacancy active sites can be introduced. The Ce-OH group (pKa ≈ 6.8) is preferentially protonated at physiological pH and becomes a strong coordination site for the DNA phosphate group (pKa ≈ 1.5). The Ce-O-Fe bond forms an electron transfer channel, enhancing the π-π stacking interaction with DNA bases and improving adsorption. The formation of oxygen vacancies and the exposure of surrounding unpaired Ce(III) / Fe(III) can also provide more adsorption sites for eARGs. (2) Optimization of surface charge and enhancement of electrostatic attraction. Ce 3+ substitutes Fe in the FeOOH lattice 3+ and then enhances the protonation trend. The isoelectric point of the doped material decreases, increasing the electrostatic attraction ability with negatively charged eARGs. Based on the above theoretical basis, the cerium-doped goethite adsorbent Ce-FeOOH is expected to achieve efficient, stable, and sustainable adsorption and removal of eARGs through multiple synergistic mechanisms of strengthened coordination bonding, optimized surface charge, and enhanced anti-interference ability. Summary of the Invention

The specific process is the same as that in Example 1. The explanations of the embodiments and comparative examples of the present invention are as follows in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Ce3d, and O1s fine spectra were performed on Ce-FeOOH adsorbent C5 with a Ce doping amount of 10.9 wt% prepared in Example 1 of the present invention and Ce-FeOOH adsorbent C1 with a Ce doping amount of 1.5 wt% prepared in Comparative Example 3, and the results are summarized in Table 1. It can be seen from the analysis of the proportion of elemental components in the full spectrum that with the increase of Ce doping amount, the proportion of Ce content increases from 1.51 wt% to 10.91 wt%. By analyzing the Ce 3d characteristic peaks of adsorbents C1 and C5, it was found that Ce was loaded on the FeOOH surface in the form of mixed valence states of Ce (III) and Ce (IV). This is because during the impregnation process, the oxygen partial pressure in the solution and the local redox environment may promote part of Ce to 3+ Oxidized to Ce 4+ , resulting in the formation of a mixed valence state. And with the increase of Ce doping amount, the proportion of Ce(III) content increased from 17.8% to 30.0%. The O1s characteristic peaks of the adsorbent materials C1 and C5 were fitted by peak separation, showing a significant increase in hydroxyl oxygen (41.12% increased to 51.82%). The results show that the present invention successfully prepared Ce-FeOOH composite materials with different Ce doping amounts by the equal volume impregnation method, and with the increase of Ce doping amount, the proportion of Ce(III) ions gradually increased, and the hydroxyl oxygen content on the surface of the material increased. Through characterization analysis, it can be preliminarily predicted that when Ce replaces Fe on the surface of FeOOH, in order to balance the charge, more surface hydroxyl groups are formed on the surface of FeOOH, increasing the active sites for forming Fe-OP complexes with DNA. Secondly, Ce-OH has a stronger affinity for DNA than Fe-OH, that is, Ce 3+ The ionic radius Much larger than Fe 3+ Its coordination number is higher, and the surface Ce-OH groups expose more active sites due to unsaturated coordination. This makes the doped material have the potential to adsorb DNA through enhanced metal double coordination. Similarly, other lanthanides with similar structures to Ce, such as La 3+ 、Eu 3+ 、Tm 3+ , also has a larger ionic radius and a higher coordination number, which can form more coordination-unsaturated Ln-OH active sites and has great potential in the design of FeOOH-based DNA adsorption materials. Table 1 Summary of XPS full spectrum and Ce 3d and O1s fine spectrum analysis of C1 and C5 adsorbent materials Test index Adsorbent material C1 Adsorbent material C5 Ce element content 1.51% 10.92% Ce(III) / (Ce(III)+Ce(IV)) 17.83% 29.99% Hydroxyl oxygen content 41.12% 51.82% The adsorption effects of the adsorbent C5 prepared in Example 1 of the present invention, the adsorbents C1 - C4 prepared in Comparative Examples 3 - 6, the non - added adsorbent in Comparative Example 1, and the FeOOH adsorbent C0 without Ce doping prepared in Comparative Example 2 on eARGs in water are as follows Figure 1 shown. Under the conditions of an initial Amp concentration of 0.1 mg / L and an adsorbent dosage of 50 mg / L, adsorption phenomena occurred for the adsorbents C1 - C5 and C0. Among them, with the increase in the Ce doping amount, the adsorption effect on Amp was significantly enhanced. At 120 min of adsorption, the Ce - FeOOH adsorbent with a Ce doping amount of 10.9% could adsorb 86.25% of Amp, which was 51.0% higher than that of the FeOOH adsorbent C0 without Ce doping (35.90%). In summary, the doping of Ce on the surface of FeOOH effectively improved the adsorption effect on eARGs, and the adsorption effect was proportional to the doping amount. Examples 2 of the present invention, and Comparative Examples 7 - 10 are about the adsorption effects of the FeOOH adsorbent C5 (Ce doping amount is 10.9%) on eARGs in water under different dosages. As Figure 2 shown, when the initial Amp concentration was 0.1 mg / L, with the increase in the dosage, the adsorption performance of the C5 adsorbent for Amp was also significantly improved. When the dosage was 80 mg / L, 88.23% of Amp could be removed after 30 min of adsorption. When the adsorption time was extended to 120 min, the experimental groups all reached the adsorption equilibrium (Δ adsorption amount < 10%), and no significant desorption phenomenon was observed after equilibrium. Examples 3 - 9 of the present invention are about the adsorption effects of the Ce - FeOOH adsorbent C5 on extracellular resistance genes (Amp) in water at concentrations of 0.025, 0.05, 0.075, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, and 0.4 mg / L. The adsorption data were fitted using the Langmuir and Freundlich isothermal models, and the FeOOH adsorbent C0 prepared in Comparative Example 2 was used as the control group. As Figure 3 shown, the adsorption data of both adsorbents were well - fitted to the Langmuir model (FeOOH: R 2 = 0.96; Ce - FeOOH: R 2 = 0.94), indicating that their adsorption behavior was dominated by monolayer chemisorption. Among them, the maximum adsorption capacity of the C0 adsorbent was 1.9×10 13 copies / mg, and the maximum adsorption capacity of the C5 adsorbent was significantly increased to 2.2×10 14 copies / mg, which was 11.5 times higher than that of the C0 adsorbent. This difference confirmed that the introduction of Ce effectively enhanced the capture ability of eARGs by regulating the surface adsorption sites and charge distribution characteristics of the material. Examples 10 to 13 and Comparative Examples 11 to 13 of the present invention are the adsorption effects of the Ce-FeOOH adsorbent C5 on eARGs in water at different pH values. As Figure 4 shown, when pH ≤ 7.0 ± 0.1, the adsorption efficiency is greater than 80.0%, and the adsorption effect improves as the pH value decreases. On the contrary, when pH = 8.0 ± 0.1, the adsorption effect decreases by 21.5% compared to when pH = 7 ± 0.1; when pH = 9.0 ± 0.1, the effect decreases by 66.9%, and the adsorption is inhibited when pH = 10.0 ± 0.1. In summary, the Ce-FeOOH doped material has a stable removal effect on eARGs in a relatively wide pH range. Examples 14 to 16 and Comparative Example 14 of the present invention are the adsorption effects of the Ce-FeOOH adsorbent C5 on eARGs in water at different salt contents. As Figure 5 shown, as the NaCl concentration in the water increases, the adsorption effect gradually improves. In the fresh water system (10 mmol / L NaCl), the adsorption effect is 86.9%, which is 10.6% higher than that without ionic strength (66.1%). When the NaCl concentration is 100 - 500 mmol / L, the adsorption effect increases by 32.7 - 33.9%, showing a significant improvement compared to the fresh water environment. In summary, the Ce-FeOOH doped material can adapt to the adsorption and removal of eARG under water conditions with different NaCl concentrations. Therefore, if it is necessary to improve the adsorption and removal effect of Ce-FeOOH on eARGs, the pH value of the water environment or the ionic strength of the water can be appropriately increased. Examples 17 and Comparative Examples 15 to 17 are the effects of synchronous eARG disinfection after the adsorbent C5 adsorbs extracellular resistance gene (Amp) pollution in water and is regenerated with 0.05 mol / L NaOH solution for 360 min, 30 min, 60 min, and 120 min. Examples 18 and Comparative Examples 18 to 20 are the effects of synchronous eARG disinfection after the adsorbent C5 adsorbs extracellular resistance gene (Amp) pollution in water and is regenerated with 0.1 mol / L NaOH solution for 360 min, 30 min, 60 min, and 120 min. Examples 19 and Comparative Examples 21 to 23 are the effects of synchronous eARG disinfection after the adsorbent C5 adsorbs extracellular resistance gene (Amp) pollution in water and is regenerated with 0.2 mol / L NaOH solution for 360 min, 30 min, 60 min, and 120 min. The results are as Figure 6As shown in the figure. When the NaOH concentration is 0.05 mol / L, the degradation efficiency of eARG reaches 23.44% within 30 minutes; when the NaOH concentration is 0.1 mol / L, the degradation efficiency of eARG increases to 53.87% within 30 minutes. When the NaOH concentration is increased to more than 0.2 mol / L, the degradation efficiency of eARG exceeds 83.87% within 30 minutes, achieving effective disinfection of adsorbed eARG. This is attributed to the characteristics of the NaOH solution. On the one hand, the strong base solution can completely dissociate hydroxyl ions in water, complete the replacement of the phosphate groups on the adsorbed eARG, and desorb eARG to realize the regeneration of the adsorbent; at the same time, the high pH of the NaOH solution can cause substantial degradation of eARG. Example 20 of the present invention is the effect of the recycled use of the adsorption material C5 after synchronous eARG disinfection by regenerating the adsorption material with 0.05 mol / L NaOH solution, as Figure 7 shown. After the Ce-FeOOH adsorption material undergoes the adsorption-regeneration cycle experiment period, it has good adsorption performance for eARG. After 5 adsorption-desorption cycles, the adsorption performance of the Ce-FeOOH adsorption material decreases by 15.95%. It shows good recyclability in regeneration. In summary, NaOH can be used as a regenerant to complete the regeneration of the adsorbent in 30 minutes. If effective degradation of eARG is to be completed synchronously during the elution regeneration process, it is necessary to extend the elution time or increase the NaOH concentration. In addition, the Ce-FeOOH adsorbent regenerated by NaOH has good recyclability. Comparative Examples 24 to 28 of the present invention are the comparison of the adsorption effects of adsorption materials doped with different metals on goethite and Comparative Example 29 is the adsorption effect of Ce-doped Fe3O4 adsorption material on Amp, as Figure 8 shown. Under the same concentration of pollutants and the same dosage of adsorbent, the Ce-doped goethite has the best adsorption effect on Amp. The C / C0 at 120 minutes is 0.13, which is significantly lower than that of other metal dopants such as Zn (C / C0 = 0.67), Cu (C / C0 = 0.47), Co (C / C0 = 0.33), Fe (C / C0 = 0.46), Mn (C / C0 = 0.38). This shows that among the material modifications of doping goethite with typical transition metals, lanthanide metals, etc., lanthanide metals represented by Ce have outstanding effects and advantages in the application of modified goethite adsorbents for removing extracellular resistance genes. In addition, when Ce is doped on the surface of other substrates (such as magnetite Fe3O4) for adsorbing eARG, no obvious adsorption effect is observed. It reflects the specificity of the bonding between Ce and FeOOH and its superiority in the application of adsorbing extracellular resistance genes. The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and refinements should also be regarded as within the protection scope of the present invention.
