Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of industrial organic wastewater treatment and sustainable application technology of green materials, and particularly relates to a method and apparatus for in-situ continuous catalytic-regeneration operation of a carbon-based catalyst packing column. Background Technology
[0002] With the advancement of industrialization and the improvement of living standards, industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and plastics are constantly expanding, releasing new pollutants, including endocrine disruptors, antibiotics, and persistent organic pollutants, into the aquatic environment, causing continuous damage to ecosystems and human health. Carbon-based catalysts, due to their low manufacturing cost and excellent environmental compatibility, have become the preferred choice for heterogeneous advanced oxidation technologies (AOPs) to remove new pollutants. However, in practical applications, organic matter removed through oxidative coupling and polymerization pathways on the catalyst surface can transform into higher molecular weight polymers, which are tightly adsorbed onto the catalyst surface, masking catalytic active sites, leading to catalyst deactivation, significantly shortening catalyst life, and increasing operating costs.
[0003] Among existing technologies for catalyst deactivation, organic solvent cleaning can partially restore catalyst activity; however, chemical reagent cleaning can cause secondary pollution, generate difficult-to-treat organic waste liquid, and has poor activity recovery. Thermal regeneration has high regeneration efficiency and a wide range of applications, but it suffers from problems such as the inability to operate in situ, high energy consumption, and high investment and operating costs.
[0004] Therefore, in order to address the above problems, this invention proposes an in-situ continuous catalytic regeneration operation method and apparatus for carbon-based catalyst packing columns. Through in-situ electrochemical treatment, the polymers attached to the catalyst surface are desorbed and decomposed into small molecule organic products until mineralization, thereby restoring the catalyst activity, significantly extending the catalyst life, and realizing continuous operation of heterogeneous catalytic wastewater treatment. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method and apparatus for in-situ continuous catalytic regeneration operation of a carbon-based catalyst packed column.
[0006] The technical solution provided by this invention is as follows: This invention provides an in-situ continuous catalytic regeneration operation device for a carbon-based catalyst packing column, comprising a wastewater mixing tank, a catalyst packing column, a clean water storage tank, a regenerated liquid storage tank, and a power supply; the wastewater mixing tank is connected to the lower treated water inlet of the catalyst packing column via an inlet valve; the clean water storage tank is connected to the upper treated water outlet of the catalyst packing column via an outlet valve; the lower outlet of the regenerated liquid storage tank is connected to the lower regenerated liquid inlet of the catalyst packing column via an inlet valve, and the upper inlet of the regenerated liquid storage tank is connected to the upper regenerated liquid outlet of the catalyst packing column via an outlet valve; the power supply for providing current during the regeneration stage is connected to the upper anode of the catalyst packing column via an anode wire and to the lower cathode of the catalyst packing column via a cathode wire.
[0007] In this invention, the catalyst packing column is mainly divided into three parts: the catalyst layer is located in the middle of the column and is fixed by supporting materials above and below; the anode is located in the upper part of the column; and the cathode extends from the lower part of the column through the entire catalyst layer to cathodize the catalyst. The catalytic operation and regeneration operation are both carried out in situ, and there is no need to load, unload, or transport the catalyst layer.
[0008] Preferably, the supporting material for fixing the catalyst layer is selected from nano sponges, porous water distribution plates, stainless steel filter plates, porous titanium plates, and other materials that allow water to pass through but can retain the catalyst, and whose pore size is smaller than the particle size of the catalyst packing.
[0009] More preferably, the conductive materials used for the anode and cathode are selected based on resistance requirements and economic budget, such as silver, copper, titanium, graphite, carbon fiber, cupronickel alloy, stainless steel, and titanium alloy; the electrode shapes for the anode and cathode are selected based on the form of the filler column, including wire rod, annular disc, and mesh.
[0010] In this invention, the carbon-based catalyst used has good catalytic and electrical conductivity properties, and the selected materials include carbon nanotubes, modified carbon nanotubes, graphene, graphite, and biochar.
[0011] In this invention, persulfate is added to the organic wastewater in a wastewater mixing tank and mixed evenly.
[0012] Preferably, the concentration range of persulfate added is 0.2 to 100 mM, and the amount added depends on the concentration and type of pollutant.
[0013] In this invention, the regenerated liquid in the regenerated liquid storage tank consists of electrolytes and oxidants of a certain concentration.
[0014] Preferably, the electrolyte is selected according to the application scenario and includes sodium sulfate, borate buffer, phosphate buffer, and potassium hydroxide; the oxidant is selected according to the application scenario and includes products that are easily activated at the cathode to generate oxidative active species, such as hydrogen peroxide, peracetic acid, percarbonate, and hydroxylamine; the electrolyte concentration range is 5 to 300 mM, and the oxidant concentration range is 5 to 30 mM.
[0015] In this invention, during regeneration, the power supply mode is selected as either constant current mode or constant voltage mode.
[0016] Preferably, the current range and voltage range are determined according to the amount of filler and the size of the device; the current range is between 0.1 and 20A, the voltage range is between 0.5 and 20V, and the energizing time is selected within 0.5 to 5 hours according to the regeneration effect.
[0017] The present invention also provides a method for in-situ continuous catalytic regeneration operation of a carbon-based catalyst packing column based on the above-mentioned device, which is carried out according to the following steps: S1. Open the treated water inlet valve (6) and the treated water outlet valve (7), and close the regenerated liquid inlet valve (8) and the regenerated liquid outlet valve (9). The wastewater is first mixed evenly with persulfate in the mixing tank (1). The mixed wastewater is pumped from the bottom of the catalyst packing column (2) by a peristaltic pump, flows upward through the catalyst, and is discharged from the top outlet and collected in the clear water tank (3). S2. After the set wastewater treatment time is reached, close the treated water inlet valve (6) and the treated water outlet valve (7), open the regenerated liquid inlet valve (8) and the regenerated liquid outlet valve (9), pump the regenerated liquid into the catalyst packing column (2) from the bottom through the peristaltic pump, and after the regenerated liquid fills the column, connect the power supply (5) to power on for the set time, turn off the power supply, and return the regenerated liquid to the regenerated liquid storage tank (4). S3. Re-pump the mixed wastewater for treatment and repeat the above operation steps.
[0018] The beneficial effects of this invention are: In practical applications of heterogeneous Fenton-like advanced oxidation technologies based on carbon-based catalysts, high-molecular-weight polymers and various reaction intermediates are generated via electron transfer pathways. These products complex with active sites and adhere tightly to the catalyst surface due to hydrophobic interactions, leading to catalyst deactivation. This invention proposes an in-situ continuous catalytic regeneration method and apparatus for carbon-based catalyst packed columns. After continuous use until deactivation, the catalyst undergoes in-situ electrochemical regeneration to adjust the hydrophilicity / hydrophobicity and surface charge of the catalyst surface, helping catalytic products detach from the catalyst surface and re-expose catalytic active sites. Furthermore, an appropriate amount of oxidant is introduced to induce an electro-Fenton reaction during regeneration, generating oxidizing active species that deeply clean the organic matter adhering to the catalyst surface, efficiently restoring its catalytic activity. This significantly extends catalyst life and reduces industrial production costs. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to embodiments. The description of the embodiments below is only for the purpose of helping to understand the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several modifications to the present invention without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
[0032] Example 1 Methods for designing small catalyst packed columns for subsequent validation experiments: A small packed column with an inner diameter of 8 mm and a height of 100 mm was filled with 100 mg of catalyst. The column mainly consists of three parts: a catalytic packing layer with a height of 20 mm, an anode, and a cathode. A 10 mm high nanofiber sponge block was placed at each end of the catalytic packing layer as a support layer. Pure titanium wire was selected as both the anode and cathode; the cathode titanium wire passed through the catalytic packing layer to cathodically polarize the catalyst during electroregeneration. The electrode spacing between the anode and cathode was maintained at 10 mm.
[0033] The specific layout of the reaction apparatus is shown in the schematic diagram. Figure 1 As shown in the figure.
[0034] Example 2 Methods for catalytic treatment of phenol wastewater: According to Example 1, a catalyst-packed column was assembled to prepare a phenol wastewater mixture: 0.5 ml of a 100 mM persulfate solution (PMS) was added to 499.5 ml of a 0.1 mM phenol (PE) solution, and the mixture was stirred thoroughly. The mixture was then passed into the packed column for treatment with a hydraulic residence time of 2 min in the catalyst layer. Samples were taken at the outlet of the packed column. Sampling times were 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, and 300 minutes. The concentration of pollutants in the samples was analyzed using liquid chromatography to determine the removal efficiency. The treatment effect ( Figure 2 It can be seen that the present invention can efficiently remove phenol.
[0035] Example 3 Methods for catalytic treatment of different organic wastewaters (bisphenol A (BPA), o-chlorophenol (COP), p-chloro-m-cresol (PCMX), dimethylphenol (DMP), sulfamethoxazole (SMX), sulfapyridine (SPY), sulfathiazole (STZ), sulfadiazine (SMM)): Prepare mixed solutions of different organic wastewaters: Add 0.5 ml of 100 mM persulfate (PMS) solution to 499.5 ml of 0.1 mM organic pollutant solution and stir thoroughly. Pass the mixture into a packed column for treatment with a hydraulic residence time of 2 min in the catalyst bed, and take samples at the outlet of the packed column. Sampling times are 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, and 300 minutes. Analyze the concentration of pollutants in the samples using liquid chromatography to determine the removal efficiency.

The change in the utilization rate of the oxidant (…) Figure 4 As can be seen, the utilization rate of the oxidant gradually decreases as the reaction time progresses, which corresponds to the gradual deactivation of the catalyst.
[0037] Example 5 Methods that lead to decreased activity when using catalyst packed columns: According to Example 2, after catalytic treatment of phenol wastewater using a catalyst-packed column for 300 min, the mixture was further passed into the packed column for treatment with a hydraulic residence time of 2 min in the catalyst layer. Samples were taken at the outlet of the packed column. Sampling times were 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, and 300 minutes. The concentration of pollutants in the samples was analyzed using liquid chromatography to determine the removal efficiency after the catalyst activity decreased.
