[0002] Cesium (Cs) is a highly toxic radioactive element (e.g. 137 Cesium (Cs) is widely present in nuclear wastewater, electronic industrial wastewater, and mining wastewater. Due to its high water solubility and long half-life (approximately 30 years), cesium easily migrates in the environment and accumulates in the food chain, causing internal radiation damage to the human body and even inducing cancer. In recent years, with the increase in nuclear energy utilization and the accumulation of electronic waste, cesium contamination of water has become a global environmental problem, urgently requiring the development of efficient and low-cost removal technologies.

For example, anion exchangers are not suitable for Cs + High selectivity but low adsorption capacity (typically <100 mg / g) and difficulty in regeneration. Organic adsorption resins offer flexible functionalization but poor radiation resistance and are easily degraded in radioactive wastewater. PBA exhibits excellent selectivity for Cs⁺, but its microporous structure is prone to clogging and difficult to desorb and regenerate after static adsorption. Layered metal phosphates (such as zirconium phosphate) have adjustable interlayer spacing but lack specific binding sites, making them susceptible to interference from competing ions such as Na⁺ and K⁺.

Identical reference numerals in the figures denote identical or similar parts, and their repeated descriptions will be omitted. Some block diagrams shown in the accompanying drawings are functional entities and do not necessarily correspond to physically or logically independent entities.
[0021] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered part of the description of the present invention.
[0022] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0024] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a multifunctional cesium removal material having both dynamic pore regulation function and specific adsorption sites, comprising: Dispersing zirconium phosphate in a hydrochloric acid solution, and then adding a Prussian blue analog to form a mixed dispersion; adjusting the pH of the mixed dispersion to neutral, performing a hydrothermal reaction, and collecting the reaction product by centrifugation to obtain the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material; In a specific implementation, the zirconium phosphate used in the embodiment of the present invention is α-zirconium phosphate (Zr(HPO4)2); after the zirconium phosphate is stirred and dispersed in a hydrochloric acid solution, a Prussian blue analogue (PBA) is added and stirred continuously to disperse uniformly to form a mixed dispersion; the pH value of the hydrochloric acid solution used in the dispersion process is 2-5; that is, the pH of the hydrochloric acid solution used can be 2, 3, 4 or 5; the preferred pH value of the hydrochloric acid solution is 3; the mass ratio of the Prussian blue analogue to the zirconium phosphate is 1:1-10; that is, the mass ratio of the Prussian blue analogue to the zirconium phosphate can be 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5, 1:6, 1:7, 1:8, 1:9 or 1:10; the preferred mass ratio of the Prussian blue analogue to the zirconium phosphate is 1:5; the zirconium phosphate swells in the acidic environment provided by the hydrochloric acid solution, thereby opening the layered structure of the zirconium phosphate, exposing more active sites, and protonating the surface to promote interaction with PBA (such as electrostatic attraction or coordination bond).
[0025] In specific implementation, PBA is not stable in an acidic environment, and the CN⁻ ligand in the PBA structure is prone to detachment; the hydrothermal reaction will intensify this reaction, causing the PBA structure to decompose; therefore, the present invention uses an alkaline solution to neutralize the formed mixed dispersion to make the pH of the mixed dispersion reach neutral (pH≈7), and then conducts a hydrothermal reaction to complete the compounding of the Prussian blue analogue and zirconium phosphate in a neutral environment to obtain a structurally stable composite product.
[0026] In a specific implementation, the temperature of the hydrothermal reaction is 65-90°C, and the reaction time is 6-24 h; preferably, the temperature of the hydrothermal reaction is 80°C, and the reaction time is 12 h.
[0027] It should be noted that the present invention does not impose any specific requirements on the amount of hydrochloric acid used, and the amount of hydrochloric acid used can ensure uniform dispersion of the Prussian blue analogue and zirconium phosphate; the Prussian blue analogue is selected from at least one of a copper-iron Prussian blue analogue, a nickel-iron Prussian blue analogue, and a cobalt-iron Prussian blue analogue.
[0028] The present invention uses a hydrothermal method to compound zirconium phosphate with a Prussian blue analogue, and the resulting composite material has a stable structure and has both dynamic pore regulation and a dual adsorption mechanism of specific adsorption sites; wherein the Prussian blue analogue provides Fe 3 + -CN vacancy, with Cs + Forming strong coordination, strengthening Cs + The selective removal ability of Cs is achieved by changing the interlayer spacing in response to changes in pH value. + Rapid capture and controlled release.
[0029] As an example, when the Prussian blue analogue is preferably a copper-iron Prussian blue analogue, the mass ratio of the copper-iron Prussian blue analogue to zirconium phosphate is 1:5; the temperature of the hydrothermal reaction is 80° C., and the reaction time is 12 h.
[0030] In some embodiments, the method further includes: immersing the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material in a thioglycolic acid solution, allowing it to stand for 2-10 hours to modify the surface of the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material with thiol groups, and then vacuum drying to obtain a thiol-modified zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material.
[0031] In a specific implementation, since thioglycolic acid contains both thiol (-SH) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material is immersed in a thioglycolic acid solution, and the thiol (-SH) of the thiol acetic acid combines with the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material. The thiol (-SH) functional group is introduced through surface modification, giving the material new interfacial chemical properties; the introduction of the thiol (-SH) group can shield the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material from interference from competing ions such as Na⁺ and K⁺, and enhance the specific adsorption of Cs by the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material. + Furthermore, some of the carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups in thioglycolic acid can also bind to the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material. The introduction of carboxyl (-COOH) groups can effectively improve the wettability and dispersion stability of the material in aqueous phase, reduce agglomeration, and thereby increase the effective specific surface area and active site accessibility. The resulting thiol-modified zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material has a water contact angle of ≤40° and a zeta potential of ≤-25mV, both of which are significantly lower than those of the unthiol-modified zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material.
[0032] It should be noted that the concentration of the thioglycolic acid solution used in the surface modification process is 0.05~0.2 mol / L, preferably 0.08–0.16 mol / L, and more preferably 0.10 mol / L; the mass volume ratio of the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material to the thioglycolic acid solution is (3.5–4.5) mg / mL, preferably 4.0 mg / mL.
[0033] It should be noted that the zirconium phosphate-Prussian blue composite porous material and the thioglycolic acid solution are allowed to react at 30-90°C for 2-10 hours to ensure that the thioglycolic acid is fully diffused into the pores of the material to achieve uniform modification (if the time is too short, the modification will be incomplete, and if the time is too long, agglomeration may occur).
[0034] In some embodiments, the zirconium phosphate used in the preparation process can be commercially available or can be obtained by the following methods: Dissolving ZrOCl2·8H2O in H3PO4 solution to form a mixed solution, refluxing the mixed solution at 100°C for 24 hours, collecting the product by centrifugation, washing with deionized water to a pH of 5-6, and vacuum drying at 60°C to obtain the zirconium phosphate; In the mixed solution, the molar ratio of H3PO4 to ZrOCl2·8H2O is 100-500.
[0035] In some embodiments, the Prussian blue analogue used in the preparation process can be commercially available or prepared by a co-precipitation method.
[0036] In the specific implementation, the preparation of copper iron Prussian blue analogues is taken as an example to illustrate the coprecipitation preparation method, which specifically includes the following steps: Dissolve Cu(NO3)2 and sodium citrate in an appropriate amount of deionized water to obtain solution A; wherein the molar ratio of Cu(NO3)2 to sodium citrate is greater than or equal to 1:5 and less than or equal to 1:1; Dissolve K3[Fe(CN)6] in an appropriate amount of deionized water to form solution B; wherein the concentration of K3[Fe(CN)6] in solution B is between 2 and 5 mM; Under nitrogen protection and the temperature controlled at 15-35 °C, solution B was added dropwise to solution A and stirred for 6-36 h. The product was centrifuged, washed with ethanol, and vacuum dried to obtain copper-iron Prussian blue analogue (CuFe / PBA).
[0037] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a multifunctional cesium removal material having both dynamic pore regulation function and specific adsorption sites, and the material is obtained by the preparation method described in the first aspect.
[0038] In a third aspect, the present invention provides an application of a multifunctional cesium removal material having both dynamic pore regulation function and specific adsorption sites. The material is obtained by the preparation method described in the first aspect above. The material is used as a cesium removal material for the treatment of cesium in water bodies.
[0039] The multifunctional cesium removal material provided by the present invention has both dynamic pore regulation function and specific adsorption sites. It integrates dynamic pores and molecular recognition sites. When used for the treatment of cesium in water, Cs⁺ adsorption / desorption can be achieved by adjusting the pH of the solution, without the need for strong acid / oxidant elution, reducing the risk of secondary pollution. It solves the contradiction of "selectivity-capacity-regeneration" that traditional adsorbents cannot achieve at the same time, and provides a new strategy for nuclear wastewater treatment and resource recovery.
