Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of membrane separation, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a cation-modified graphene oxide ceramic composite nanofiltration membrane. Background Art

[0002] Membrane separation technology, as an efficient and energy-saving separation method, has been widely used in water treatment, ion separation and pollutant removal. Among them, nanofiltration membranes have become an important tool for industrial wastewater treatment, seawater desalination and fine chemical separation because of their pore size range between ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis (usually 0.5-2nm), which can achieve selective separation of small molecular organic matter, divalent ions and high-valent ions. In recent years, graphene and its derivatives, especially graphene oxide (GO), have been regarded as ideal materials for the preparation of high-performance nanofiltration membranes due to their unique two-dimensional layered structure, rich oxygen-containing functional groups (such as hydroxyl, epoxy and carboxyl groups) and good hydrophilicity. GO nanosheets can form ordered layered membranes through layer-by-layer assembly, and their interlayer channels can serve as transport paths for molecules or ions, achieving precise size screening and charge repulsion effects.

[0003] Currently, methods for preparing GO-based nanofiltration membranes primarily include vacuum filtration, spin coating, layer-by-layer self-assembly, and doping. Each of these methods has its own advantages. For example, vacuum filtration is simple to operate and can quickly form a dense membrane; spin coating facilitates control of membrane thickness; layer-by-layer self-assembly allows for functionalization; and doping enhances the mechanical strength and stability of the membrane by introducing other materials. For example, some studies have used vacuum filtration to deposit GO onto organic supports (such as polyethersulfone or polyamide) to form GO composite nanofiltration membranes for dye wastewater treatment or heavy metal ion removal. These membranes exhibit high water flux and anti-fouling properties, with some composite membranes achieving heavy metal ion rejection rates exceeding 90%. Furthermore, the combination of GO with inorganic materials has also been explored, such as combining GO with metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) or nanoparticles to enhance membrane durability and selectivity.

[0004] In order to further improve the mechanical stability and chemical tolerance of GO membranes, researchers began to combine GO with ceramic supports. Ceramic membranes (such as alumina, titanium oxide or zirconium oxide based membranes) have excellent thermal stability, mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, and are suitable for applications in high temperature, high pressure or acidic and alkaline environments. In the prior art, the preparation of GO-ceramic composite nanofiltration membranes usually involves surface modification, such as grafting the surface of the ceramic support with a silane coupling agent (such as γ-aminopropyltriethoxysilane) to improve the adhesion of GO. Subsequently, the GO dispersion is deposited on the modified ceramic by vacuum filtration or spin coating to form a composite membrane layer. This composite structure can utilize the porous support of the ceramic to provide a high-throughput channel, while achieving nanofiltration function with the help of the layered screening of GO. Relevant patents and literature reports show that such membranes show potential in oil-water separation, dye interception and seawater pretreatment. For example, some GO-ceramic hollow fiber membranes can achieve efficient separation of oil droplets with a flux of tens of L / m 2 ·h.

[0005] However, the existing GO-ceramic composite nanofiltration membrane still has several technical defects that restrict its industrial application. First, the interlayer spacing of the GO membrane is uneven, and it is easily expanded in aqueous solution due to the insertion of water molecules, resulting in the expansion of the interlayer channels and a significant decrease in the ion retention rate. For example, for small ions such as Na + The retention rate of SO₄⁻ is often less than 80%, making it difficult to meet the requirements of fine separation. Secondly, the interaction between GO nanosheets is weak, and the membrane is prone to shrinkage, delamination, or cracking during drying or recycling. This is especially true on ceramic supports. Drying-related shrinkage can lead to microstructural instability, compromising the long-term durability of the membrane. Literature reports indicate that the instability of GO membranes in the dry state is primarily due to the disruption of van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds, resulting in membrane shedding or performance degradation. Furthermore, existing preparation methods are time-consuming and costly. For example, layer-by-layer self-assembly requires multiple cycles, spin coating methods are equipment-intensive, and the degree of GO oxidation and sheet size are difficult to precisely control, resulting in large batch-to-batch variability in membrane performance. While conventional polyamide- or polydopamine-based GO composite membranes achieve improved compactness through interfacial polymerization, they suffer from random functional group distribution, pH sensitivity, and the risk of secondary contamination, such as the release of polymerization residues. For specific applications, such as magnesium and lithium separation in salt lakes or the removal of heavy metal complex ions, existing mechanisms rely on high pressure or chemical additives, resulting in high energy consumption, low economic efficiency, and environmental impact.

[0006] In addition, although some GO modification strategies such as the introduction of metal cations or nanoparticles can regulate the interlayer spacing, they are mostly limited to organic supports and do not fully combine the durability advantages of ceramics. Existing anion and cation regulation of GO membranes can improve stability, but the preparation is complex and it is easy to introduce interface defects in the ceramic composite, affecting the overall separation efficiency. In the patent literature, some GO-ceramic membranes achieve defect-free ultra-thin films through sacrificial layers (such as graphene oxide interlayers) or chemical grafting, but still face the challenges of interlayer expansion and low retention rate. These defects not only reduce the separation accuracy and life of the membrane, but also limit its application in high-concentration salt solutions or complex wastewater. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a GO-ceramic composite nanofiltration membrane that can effectively regulate the GO interlayer spacing, enhance membrane stability and improve ion retention rate, so as to overcome the limitations of existing technologies and promote the advancement of membrane separation technology. Summary of the Invention

[0030] The technical solution of the present invention is further illustrated and described below through specific implementation methods.

[0031] The method for preparing graphene oxide by the above-mentioned improved Hummers method in the following examples and comparative examples specifically includes:

[0032] (1) Wash and dry a 1000 mL beaker, add 3 g of flake graphite, and slowly add 360 mL of concentrated sulfuric acid (98% H2SO4) and 40 mL of concentrated phosphoric acid (95% H3PO4) under magnetic stirring. Then slowly add 18 g of potassium permanganate (KMnO4) in batches. Move the beaker to a 50°C oil bath and stir for 12 hours. Remove the beaker and allow it to cool naturally to room temperature. Slowly pour the reaction solution onto ice cubes in 400 mL of dilute hydrogen peroxide (containing 18 ml of 30% H2O2). The solution turns bright yellow.

[0033] (2) The solution obtained in step (1) is subjected to cross-flow filtration with a tubular ceramic membrane having a pore size of 0.05 μm to remove impurities, thereby obtaining a graphene oxide solution after impurities removal; the basic principle is to utilize the pore screening effect of the tubular ceramic membrane, that is, the filtration pore size of the tubular ceramic membrane is smaller than the size of the GO sheet, so that the GO sheet cannot flow out through the tubular ceramic membrane, but flows back to the feed liquid barrel with the circulation of the liquid in the pipeline, which neither blocks the membrane pores nor ensures the smoothness of the membrane pores, and also crushes and peels off the larger GO sheets; the filtration pore size of the tubular ceramic membrane is larger than the impurity ion size of the GO solution, so that H + , K + 、Mn 2+ Acid radicals and metal ions can easily pass through the pores of the ceramic tubular membrane and be discharged. This cycle is repeated to achieve the separation of GO and waste acid, K + , and Mn 2+ The separation of metal ions and the collection of GO solution complete the washing and impurity removal of GO;
