Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of azo dye wastewater treatment, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a magnesium oxide modified alumina composite material and its application as an adsorbent for removing methyl orange. Background Art

[0002] There are a wide variety of synthetic dyes, which are widely used in multiple industries. Among them, industries such as pharmaceuticals, textiles, cosmetics, food, and paper printing have all been revitalized with the help of dyes. However, synthetic dyes produce a large amount of wastewater, which contains various organic pollutants, harmful dyes, and heavy metal elements. The toxic and harmful substances in the wastewater pose a threat to the safety of aquatic plants, aquatic organisms, and even human lives. Therefore, dye wastewater must be scientifically treated before being discharged.

[0003] Dye removal methods can be divided into three categories, namely physical (adsorption, ion exchange, membrane filtration), chemical (coagulation - flocculation, photolysis, electrochemistry), and biological (advanced oxidation treatment methods). Although there are many effective dye removal methods, due to the limitations of most methods, only a few methods are widely used at present. Among them, the adsorption method is one of the efficient methods for treating dye wastewater.

[0004] An ideal adsorbent should have characteristics such as a large specific surface area, high adsorption capacity, and easy regeneration. Due to the characteristics of alumina, such as a large specific surface area, adjustable pore size, and rich active sites, it is often used as an adsorbent. And magnesium oxide has characteristics such as a high isoelectric point and rich surface active sites, making it also an efficient adsorbent. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention provides a preparation method of a magnesium oxide modified alumina composite material and its application as an adsorbent for removing methyl orange, aiming to solve the problem of difficult removal of methyl orange in wastewater. This preparation method is simple and easy to operate, and can be widely used in the preparation of industrial adsorbents.

[0007] The Boehmite is prepared from aluminum sulfate and sodium metaaluminate.

[0008] The concentration of the magnesium nitrate solution is 0.4 - 2.6 mol / L.

[0009] The molar ratio of magnesium in the magnesium nitrate solution to aluminum in the alumina support is 0.1 - 1.4.

[0010] The specific surface area of the alumina support is 400 - 600 m 2 / g, and the pore volume is 1.0 - 2.0 cm 3 / g.

[0011] The specific surface area of the magnesium oxide modified alumina composite is 160 - 400 m 2 / g, and the pore volume is 0.4 - 1.4 cm 3 / g.

[0012] Application of the above-prepared magnesium oxide modified alumina composite as an adsorbent for removing methyl orange.

[0013] After the magnesium oxide modified alumina composite adsorbs methyl orange, it is calcined at 500 - 700 °C for 1 - 4 h, and then it can be regenerated and continue to be used for adsorbing and removing methyl orange dye.

[0014] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. The magnesium oxide modified alumina composite prepared by the present invention has high thermal stability, and the preparation method is simple, easy to operate, and low in cost, with broad application prospects.

[0015] 2. Using the magnesium oxide modified alumina composite prepared by the present invention to adsorb and remove methyl orange dye in wastewater, the adsorption rate is fast and the adsorption capacity is high. When using 0.01 g of adsorbent to adsorb 100 mL of methyl orange solution with a concentration of 400 mg / L, the adsorption amount within 5 min can reach 43% of the equilibrium adsorption amount, and the equilibrium adsorption amount of the prepared adsorbent for methyl orange is as high as 2947 mg / g.

[0016] 3. After using the magnesium oxide modified alumina composite prepared by the present invention to adsorb and remove methyl orange and recycling it five times, the adsorption capacity for the methyl orange solution is 2666 mg / g. The reduction rate of the adsorption amount is only 9.5%. It has significant application potential in the field of industrial wastewater treatment. Description of the Drawings
