Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of uranium extraction technology from seawater, and more particularly to a method for preparing a carboxyl-functionalized covalent organic framework material for uranium extraction from seawater. Specifically, it relates to an adsorbent for uranium extraction from seawater, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] One of the major challenges facing human society in the 21st century is the transition to clean energy that promotes deep decarbonization and sustainable development. Nuclear energy, with its advantages of high energy density, stable and continuous power supply, and low carbon emissions, is widely recognized as a mature and safe technology. Uranium is the prerequisite and guarantee for the sustainable development of the nuclear industry. The reserves of natural uranium ore on land are limited and difficult to mine. In contrast, the total uranium reserves in seawater are approximately 4.5 billion tons, about 1,000 times the proven uranium ore reserves on land, and the uranium reserves in seawater are sufficient to ensure the long-term stable operation of nuclear power plants. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new materials and technologies for extracting uranium from seawater to meet the ever-growing demand for uranium resources.

[0003] Using solid porous adsorbent materials for uranium extraction from seawater is a feasible approach. In recent years, emerging nanoframework materials, such as porous carbon materials, hydrogels, porous organic polymers, porous aromatic frameworks, hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks, and metal-organic frameworks, have been applied to uranium extraction from seawater. However, their overall performance is unsatisfactory, specifically exhibiting poor adsorption capacity, poor stability, slow kinetics, poor resistance to biofouling, and poor mass transfer due to disordered structures. These limitations significantly restrict their application in uranium extraction from seawater.

[0004] Covalently bonded carbon (COF) materials possess advantages such as programmable chemical structures, excellent crystallinity, outstanding stability, large specific surface area, and ease of post-modification. The amylopyram group is the most commonly used functionalization for uranium binding, and amylopyram-modified COF-based adsorbents have already been applied in seawater uranium extraction. However, vanadium is the main competing ion in seawater uranium extraction, and the selectivity of amylopyram groups for uranium / vanadium in seawater is limited. Therefore, it is essential to develop new materials for seawater uranium extraction with novel specific adsorption sites. Summary of the Invention

This carboxyl-functionalized covalent organic framework material is synthesized using a solvothermal method with specific key monomers and exhibits excellent crystallinity.

[0039] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the technical solutions of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0040] The following is combined Figures 1-14 This invention describes a method for preparing a carboxyl-functionalized covalent organic framework material for uranium extraction from seawater.

[0041] Where specific techniques or conditions are not specified in the examples, they shall be performed in accordance with the techniques or conditions described in the literature in this field, or in accordance with the product instructions. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all conventional products that can be purchased through legitimate channels.

[0042] Example 1A This embodiment also provides an adsorbent containing a compound with the following structure: This embodiment also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned adsorbent, the steps of which are as follows: (1) Trialdehyde pyrogallol and 2,5-bis(allyloxy) terephthalohydrazide were added to a glass reactor as reaction raw materials, and mesitylene, 1,4-dioxane and 6M acetic acid (aqueous solution) were added to it to obtain mixture A.

[0043] The mass ratio of trialdehyde phloroglucinol to 2,5-bis(allyloxy)terephthalohydrazide is 21:46.

[0044] The volume ratio of mesitylene to 1,4-dioxane is 1:1.

[0045] The mass-to-volume ratio of trialdehyde phloroglucinol and mesitylene is 21 mg: 1 mL.

[0046] The volume ratio of mesitylene to 6M acetic acid (aqueous solution) is 1:0.2.

[0047] (2) The mixture A was ultrasonically treated for 20 minutes, and the uniformly dispersed mixture A was frozen in liquid nitrogen. The mixture was subjected to three cycles of freezing-pumping-thawing and degassing and sealed with a flame. The reactor was then placed in a 120°C oven and left to stand for three days. After cooling to room temperature, the solids were collected.

[0048] (3) The solid obtained in step (2) was washed with ethanol and tetrahydrofuran, and then dried under vacuum at 100°C to constant weight to obtain a yellow powdery covalent organic framework material, denoted as COF-IHEP5, with the following structure: .

[0049] (4) The COF-IHEP5, 2,2-azobisisobutyronitrile and 3-mercaptopropionic acid obtained in step (3) above are added to a glass reactor to obtain mixture B.

[0050] The mass ratio of COF-IHEP5 to 2,2-azobisisobutyronitrile is 10:1.

[0051] The mass-to-volume ratio of COF-IHEP5 and 3-mercaptopropionic acid is 100 mg: 4 mL.

[0052] (5) Sonicate the mixture B for 20 minutes, freeze the uniformly dispersed mixture B in liquid nitrogen, and seal it after three cycles of freezing-pumping-thawing and degassing. Then place the reactor in an 80°C oil bath and stir for two days. After cooling to room temperature, collect the solids.

[0053] (6) The solid obtained in step (5) was washed with deionized water and acetone and dried under vacuum at 100°C to constant weight to obtain a yellow-green powder adsorbent, denoted as COF-IHEP5-COOH.

[0054] Test case The COF-IHEP5 and COF-IHEP5-COOH prepared in Example 1A were tested as follows: (1) The crystal structure of COF-IHEP5 was determined using X-ray powder diffraction (PXRD) and Materials Studio simulation. For example... Figure 1 As shown, diffraction peaks appear at 3.61°, 6.21°, and 7.12°, corresponding to the (100), (110), and (200) crystal planes, respectively. Possible stacking modes were simulated in Materials Studio software. Based on the experimental data, the structural model was refined using Pawley. The results show that COF-IHEP5 has a hexagonal unit cell in space group P6-CC, with cell parameters a=b=29.9461Å, c=7.0826Å, α=β=90°, and γ=120.0° (Rp=1.36%, Rwp=2.06%). The experimental data match well with the antiparallel AA stacking model. The results indicate that COF-IHEP5 has a two-dimensional hexagonal honeycomb structure with a pore size of approximately 2.1 nm and an interlayer spacing of approximately 3.54 Å. The PXRD pattern of COF-IHEP5-COOH shows a diffraction pattern comparable to that of COF-IHEP5 (e.g., ...). Figure 2 This indicates that the excellent crystallinity of the modified COF material was preserved.

[0055] (2) Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) was used to verify the chemical structure and composition. For example... Figures 3-5 As shown, at ~1631cm -1 A characteristic signal exists at this location, corresponding to the lower energy characteristic of the carbonyl stretching vibration in the β-ketoenamine bond, while the monomer's NH (3290cm) -1 ) and CH (2893cm) -1 The signal almost disappeared, indicating that COF-IHEP5 was highly polymerized. The Fourier transform infrared spectrum of COF-IHEP5-COOH showed that at 1724 cm⁻¹... -1 The presence of a C=O stretching band (carboxylic acid) at this point confirms the success of the post-synthetic modification. Furthermore, the characteristic peak of the β-keto-enamine bond is observed at 1631 cm⁻¹. -1 The fact that the chemical structure of COF-IHEP5 modified by the "thioene" click reaction was preserved demonstrates that the chemical structure of COF-IHEP5 was preserved, and also proves the excellent stability of COF-IHEP5.

[0056] (3) The inherent porosity of COF-IHEP5 was studied by N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm curves at 77 K, such as... Figures 6-7 As shown, the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface areas of COF-IHEP5 and COF-IHEP5-COOH are 828 m² and 828 m², respectively. 2 / g and 47m 2 The pore volumes were 0.49 cm / g and 0.08 cm / g, respectively. Pore size distribution analysis based on the nonlocal density functional theory (NLDFT) model showed that the pore sizes of COF-IHEP5 and COF-IHEP5-COOH were concentrated at 2.0 and 1.3 nm, respectively. This is a good match for the antiparallel AA stacked structures (21.2 and 13.8 Å). The reduction in pore size also verifies the success of the post-modification.

[0057] (4) Thermal stability: Thermogravimetric analysis of COF-IHEP5 and COF-IHEP5-COOH is as follows: Figures 8-9 As shown, thermogravimetric analysis indicates that the above-mentioned adsorbent can remain stable at 250℃.

[0058] (5) such as Figures 10-11 As shown, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed the morphology of the uniform porous nanofibers of COF-IHEP5-COOH.

[0059] (6) Acid and base stability: COF-IHEP5-COOH can still maintain very good crystallinity after being soaked in 3M and 6M nitric acid and sodium hydroxide solutions for 24 hours respectively.

[0060] Example 1B This embodiment provides an application of carboxyl-functionalized covalent organic frameworks in seawater uranium extraction, the steps of which include: (1) Prepare uranium solutions with concentrations of 20 ppm, 40 ppm, 60 ppm, 80 ppm, 100 ppm, 150 ppm, 200 ppm, 250 ppm and 300 ppm using ultrapure water, such as Figure 12 As shown. The pH of the solution was then adjusted to approximately 5.0.

[0061] (2) Take uranium solutions with different initial uranium concentrations into centrifuge tubes, and then add COF-IHEP5-COOH prepared in Example 1A. Perform an adsorption test on a constant temperature shaker at 25°C. The mass-volume ratio of COF-IHEP5-COOH to uranium solution is 5mg:25mL. After adsorption, filter out the insoluble matter to obtain the filtrate.

[0062] Saturated adsorption capacity test: The concentration of uranyl ions in the filtrate was determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), and the adsorption capacity was calculated. Figure 14 As shown, COF-IHEP5-COOH exhibits a maximum adsorption capacity of 543 mg / g for uranyl ions.

[0063] Fitting the Langmuir adsorption isotherm and Freundlich adsorption isotherm models revealed that the active adsorption sites are uniformly distributed on the material surface, and the adsorption of uranyl ions by COF-IHEP5-COOH is a uniform monolayer adsorption.

[0064] Example 2B This embodiment provides an application of carboxyl-functionalized covalent organic frameworks in seawater uranium extraction, the steps of which include: (1) Adding ions: UO2 to natural seawater (originating from the South China Sea (Haikou, Hainan)) 2+ VO4 3- Fe 3+ Co 2+ Ni 2+ Zn 2+ Pb 2+ Ba 2+ and Sr 2+ Simulated seawater containing all of the aforementioned ions was obtained. The amount of each ion added was 0.05 mmol / L.

[0065] (2) The COF-IHEP5-COOH prepared in Example 1A was placed in simulated seawater, wherein the mass-to-volume ratio of COF-IHEP5-COOH to simulated seawater was 20 mg: 100 mL; ion adsorption was carried out in a constant temperature shaker at 25 °C. After reaching adsorption equilibrium, samples were taken with a syringe and filtered through a 0.22 μm aqueous filter. The adsorption capacity of different ions was detected by ICP-OES. The test results are as follows: Figure 13 As shown in Table 1 below (the horizontal axis is labeled with the corresponding elements), the specific data is as follows.

[0066] Table 1

[0067] The results of ion selectivity experiments were conducted in simulated seawater to detect different interfering ions. Table 1 above shows the results for VO4+ ion selectivity. 3- Fe 3+ Co 2+ Ni 2+ Zn 2+ Pb 2+ Ba 2+ and Sr 2+ Under the interference of [unclear], the COF-IHEP5-COOH of the present invention exhibits excellent ion selectivity for uranyl ions.

[0068] Example 3B This embodiment provides an application of carboxyl-functionalized covalent organic frameworks in seawater uranium extraction, the steps of which include: (1) Uranium ions were added to natural seawater (originating from the South China Sea (Haikou, Hainan)) that had been filtered through a 0.22um aqueous filter membrane to remove insoluble substances (such as particulate matter) to obtain seawater 1 and seawater 2; the concentration of uranium in seawater 1 was 2 ppm and the concentration of uranium in seawater 2 was 10 ppm.

[0069] (2) Take seawater 1 and seawater 2 into centrifuge tubes respectively, and add COF-IHEP5-COOH prepared in Example 1A to them. The mass-to-volume ratio of COF-IHEP5-COOH to seawater is 0.2g:1L. Shake in a constant temperature shaker at 25℃ for 4 days until adsorption equilibrium is reached. Take samples with a syringe at regular intervals, filter with a 0.22μm water filter, analyze the residual uranium concentration using ICP-OES, calculate the adsorption capacity, and the fitting results of the adsorption kinetics and the corresponding pseudo-second-order kinetic model are as follows: Figure 14 As shown, its adsorption data conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation, with a correlation coefficient R. 2 With a value as high as 0.99, surface chemisorption dominates the entire adsorption process.

[0070] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
