Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electro-Fenton coupling membranes and water treatment, and in particular to a preparation method and application of a cobalt-palladium bimetallic composite electro-Fenton catalytic membrane. Background Art
[0002] Halogenated aromatic compounds, a typical class of organic pollutants, are widely used in industrial preservatives, fungicides, and pesticides. They enter aquatic environments through surface runoff and subsurface infiltration, particularly at high concentrations in industrial wastewater. These compounds are extremely toxic and difficult to degrade, posing a serious threat to the ecological environment and hindering sustainable environmental protection. Therefore, the mineralization and detoxification of halogenated aromatic compounds has become a research hotspot in water treatment, with electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs) being one of the main approaches.
[0003] As one of the most typical technologies in EAOP, electro-Fenton (E-Fenton) technology is particularly suitable for the treatment of refractory organic pollutants. However, during the E-Fenton reaction, the leaching of Fe element will form iron sludge precipitation as the pH increases, which limits its application range. In order to overcome this limitation, Fenton-like catalysts have been developed to replace the Fe in traditional Fenton reagents by utilizing the transition between different valence states of transition metals. 2+ , thus breaking the pH limitation on the application of E-Fenton technology. Furthermore, the preparation method of E-Fenton catalysts is also crucial. Traditional physical methods are prone to metal leaching, causing secondary pollution. Chemical methods, on the other hand, connect metals through chemical bonds, extending the catalyst's service life and reducing the risk of environmental pollution.
[0004] Furthermore, in order to improve the recovery efficiency and recycling performance of the E-Fenton catalyst, membrane coupling technology was introduced into the E-Fenton system. By fixing the E-Fenton catalyst on the membrane material, an electrocatalytic membrane is formed. This design not only promotes the recovery of the catalyst, but also precisely controls the catalytic reaction site so that the reaction occurs mainly on the membrane electrode surface. However, this also limits the reaction rate. To solve this problem, a flow-through reactor operation mode is adopted to force water to pass through the membrane electrode, increase the mass transfer rate, reduce the thickness of the diffusion layer, and thus improve the reaction efficiency. This method has significant advantages over traditional plate electrodes, especially in enhancing mass transfer.
[0005] Carbon nanotube membranes have been widely studied in the field of EAOP due to their excellent electrical conductivity and are usually used as ideal substrate materials for E-Fenton coupled membranes. Not only can it generate H2O2 through oxygen reduction reaction, provide sufficient E-Fenton reagents, and reduce the need for additional chemical reagents, but it can also accelerate the E-Fenton reaction through transition metal modification, broaden the pH application range, and thus improve the detoxification efficiency of organic pollutants. In order to enhance the stability between the transition metal and the carbon nanotubes, a chemical bond bridge is used to connect them, which not only enhances the stability between the metal source and the substrate, but also provides a channel for electron transfer in the E-Fenton reaction. In addition, zero-valent palladium (Pd 0 ), using its catalytic reaction to produce atomic hydrogen ([H*]), can significantly accelerate the dehalogenation process of halogenated aromatic compounds and further improve the mineralization and detoxification efficiency.
[0006] To further optimize the treatment of halogenated aromatic compounds, a cobalt-palladium bimetallic composite electro-Fenton catalytic membrane was developed. Application of this bimetallic modified carbon nanotube membrane in a flow-through reactor not only overcomes the mass transfer limitations of traditional systems but also significantly enhances the contact oxidation efficiency between the catalytic membrane and the active material, accelerating the mineralization and detoxification of halogenated aromatic compounds, effectively addressing the problem of halogenated aromatic compound contamination in water.

[0058] Example 1
[0059] 300 mg of CNTs (10-30 μm in length, 10 nm in inner diameter, and 20 nm in outer diameter) were thoroughly dispersed in 150 mL of concentrated acid solution (concentrated sulfuric acid:concentrated nitric acid = 1:3). Ultrasonication was performed at 180 W for 30 min to ensure thorough contact between the CNTs and the concentrated acid. The mixture was placed in a round-bottom flask, connected to a spherical condenser, and heated in an oil bath at 80°C for 4 h. After acidification, the solution was cooled to room temperature and the CNTs were separated from the concentrated acid using vacuum filtration. The CNTs were then washed with copious amounts of deionized water until the pH of the washing solution was consistent with that of the deionized water. The CNT powder was collected and dried in a vacuum oven at 80°C for 12 h, ground, and stored for future use. This was designated as ACCNTs.

Observe that the brown solution turns black with the release of a large amount of gas. Add 1 mol / L HCl solution dropwise while stirring to adjust the pH of the solution until the pH is 7-8 and no bubbles are generated. A black precipitate is produced.

[0078] The different catalytic membrane electrodes prepared in Example 1 were used as cathodes, and the platinum mesh was used as anodes. The cathode and anode were placed in opposite and perpendicular positions with a plate spacing of 6 mm in a flow-through reactor. The reactor volume was about 2 mL, and the effective area of the catalytic membrane electrode was 3.14 cm 2 An aeration system was set up in the simulated organic wastewater with an aeration volume of 200 mL / min. The degradation system flow rate was set to 3 mL / min by a peristaltic pump. A voltage of 2.5 V was applied by a power supply to perform the degradation experiment. The volume of the degraded simulated organic wastewater was 50 mL.
[0079] During the test, 1 mL of the degradation solution was taken at different times to test the concentration of 2,4,6-tribromophenol. The test results were as follows: Figure 7 and Table 1
