Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of industrial wastewater treatment, in particular to a fractional purification and directional recovery process of mixed extractants in industrial wastewater. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the field of industrial wastewater treatment, extraction method is widely used due to its high efficiency in separating non-degradable pollutants. The core of the method is to realize separation through the selective combination of mixed extractants such as 2-octanol, N235 and sulfonated kerosene with pollutants. However, part of the mixed extractants will be lost with the wastewater during the extraction process, which not only increases the treatment cost, but also causes secondary pollution of water bodies due to the chemical stability of the extractant components. Therefore, the efficient recovery of mixed extractants is crucial to the economy and environmental protection of industrial wastewater treatment.
[0003] In the existing recovery process of mixed extractants, adsorption materials are mostly dependent on traditional carriers such as activated carbon and conventional resins. These materials lack specific functional groups and have poor adsorption selectivity for each component of the mixed extractants, which easily adsorbs suspended impurities and ionic pollutants in the wastewater at the same time, resulting in mixed components in the subsequent desorption liquid and significantly increasing the difficulty of separation. At the same time, the desorption process mostly uses a single temperature or a single desorption agent system, which cannot realize directional desorption according to the differences in the interaction between different extractant components and adsorption materials, causing incomplete desorption or co-desorption of components, further reducing the recovery purity. In the separation link, the existing technology often uses single rectification or simple distillation method, which is difficult to solve the separation problem of 2-octanol and N235, sulfonated kerosene with close boiling points in the mixed extractants, and is easy to form azeotropic system or overlapping distillation, resulting in insufficient purity of the target component. In addition, the amine salt-containing waste liquid generated during the desorption process is mostly directly discharged, which not only wastes resources such as diethanolamine, but also causes water body acid-base imbalance; the surface functional groups of the adsorption material are prone to deprotonation or loss of hydroxyl groups after use, and the activity decays quickly, making it difficult to realize stable recycling use.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a fractional purification and directional recovery process of mixed extractants in industrial wastewater to solve the above technical problems. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application relates to the technical field of industrial wastewater treatment, in particular to a fractional purification and directional recovery process of mixed extractants in industrial wastewater.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application provides the following technical scheme: a fractional purification and directional recovery process of mixed extractants in industrial wastewater, comprising the following steps:
[0007] 1) pass industrial wastewater into an adsorption device, the adsorption device is filled with graphene adsorption material, which introduces amine group and phosphonic acid group by covalent grafting method, to obtain amine group-phosphonic acid group modified graphene adsorption material, the molar ratio of amine group and phosphonic acid group is 0.8:1-1.2:1;
[0008] 2) pass the adsorption saturated adsorption device in step 1) into a composite desorption agent, the composite desorption agent is made by mixing ethanol and diethanolamine at a volume ratio of 85-95:5-15, the pH of the composite desorption agent is 8.0-9.0;
[0009] Using the segmented desorption mode, the secondary octanol on the graphene adsorption material is desorbed at 58-61 DEG C, and the N235 and sulfonated kerosene on the graphene adsorption material are desorbed at 64-66 DEG C;
[0010] During the desorption process, the diethanolamine in the composite desorption agent reacts with the acidic substances in the industrial wastewater and the residual acidic substances on the surface of the adsorption material to generate amine salt, and a mixed desorption liquid containing the composite desorption agent, the secondary octanol, the N235, the sulfonated kerosene and the amine salt is collected;
[0011] 3) pass the mixed desorption liquid obtained in step 2) into a rectifying column, control the top temperature of the column to be 73-80 DEG C and the bottom temperature to be 155-175 DEG C, the composite desorption agent is separated from the top of the column, the secondary octanol, the N235 and the sulfonated kerosene form a mixed extractant and remain in the lower part of the column and are separated, and the amine salt remains in the bottom of the rectifying column to form an amine salt-containing waste liquid;
[0012] Pass the mixed extractant into a gradient vacuum distillation device, and separate the secondary octanol, the N235 and the sulfonated kerosene by gradient vacuum distillation;
[0013] 4) pass the amine salt-containing waste liquid at the bottom of the rectifying column in step 3) into the adsorption device in step 1), and adjust the pH of the system to 2.0-3.0.
[0014] The hierarchical purification and directional recovery process of the mixed extractant in the industrial wastewater provided by the application introduces amine group and phosphonic acid group on the surface of the graphene substrate by covalent grafting method to form a double functional group structure of fixed adsorption site and pH response site. In other words, the amine group acts as a fixed adsorption site, the loading amount is controlled by reaction time, the extractant components are selectively combined by means of hydrogen bond and hydrophobic interaction, and the loading amount density is accurately optimized to avoid site congestion or insufficient adsorption capacity; the phosphonic acid group acts as a pH response site, the loading amount is controlled by reaction temperature, and the core characteristic is the pH response transformation ability of protonation and deprotonation, which provides structural support for the switching of adsorption auxiliary catalytic function; at the same time, the molar ratio of the double functional groups is strictly controlled to be 0.8:1-1.2:1, which is the core parameter of balancing adsorption selectivity and function switching efficiency.
[0015] Preferably, in step 1), the step of introducing amine groups and phosphonic acid groups to the graphene adsorption material by the covalent grafting method comprises:
[0016] 1a) dispersing the graphene substrate in a N,N-dimethylformamide solvent, ultrasonic treatment for 1-3 h, adding an amine group precursor and a catalyst triethylamine, the mass ratio of the amine group precursor to the graphene substrate being 1:8-1:12, stirring and reacting at 60-80 DEG C for 4-6 h to obtain amine group modified graphene; wherein the amine group functional group loading of the amine group precursor is regulated by the reaction time: the amine group loading is 0.3-0.4 mmol / g when the reaction time is 4 h, and the amine group loading is 0.5-0.6 mmol / g when the reaction time is 6 h;
[0017] 1b) adding a phosphonic acid group precursor to the amine group modified graphene dispersion, the mass ratio of the phosphonic acid group precursor to the amine group modified graphene being 1:5-1:7, heating to 80-100 DEG C, stirring and reacting for 6-8 h to generate phosphonic acid groups through ester hydrolysis reaction; wherein the phosphonic acid group loading is regulated by the reaction temperature: the phosphonic acid group loading is 0.4-0.5 mmol / g when the reaction temperature is 80 DEG C, and the phosphonic acid group loading is 0.6-0.7 mmol / g when the reaction temperature is 100 DEG C;
[0018] 1c) after the reaction is completed, washing with deionized water and ethanol alternately for 3-5 times, and vacuum drying for 6-12 h to obtain the amine group-phosphonic acid group modified graphene adsorption material; by adjusting the reaction time of step 1a) and the reaction temperature of step 1b), the molar ratio of the amine group to the phosphonic acid group in the final material is 0.8:1-1.2:1.
[0019] The industrial wastewater mixed extractant fractional purification directional recovery process provided by the application, in the adsorption stage, the pH of the industrial wastewater influent is controlled in the acidic interval of 2.0-3.0, triggering the protonation conversion of the phosphonic acid group, forming a synergistic adsorption system with the amine group, the amine group selectively adsorbs the extractant components, the phosphonic acid group enhances the balance of the hydrophilic and hydrophobic levels after protonation, assists in weakening the interaction between the extractant and the wastewater, simultaneously repels the ionic impurities in the wastewater, reduces the competitive adsorption, improves the adsorption selectivity, and the linkage regulation of the influent water temperature and flow further guarantees the sufficient contact between the adsorption material and the wastewater, avoids the adsorption equilibrium deviation caused by high temperature, and ensures the stability of the dual functional group synergistic adsorption efficiency.
[0020] In the desorption stage, the pH of the composite desorption agent is adjusted to the alkaline range of 8.0-9.0, triggering the deprotonation of the phosphonic acid group, and the function is switched from adsorption assistance to catalytic weakening. The deprotonated phosphonic acid group weakens the binding force between the adsorbent and the extractant components through charge repulsion, and cooperates with the solubilization of ethanol and the alkaline environment of diethanolamine in the composite desorption agent to reduce the desorption energy barrier of the extractant. The amino phosphonic acid chelating agent ethylenediaminetetramethylene phosphonic acid introduced synchronously captures the residual metal ions in the industrial wastewater through strong complexation, avoids the formation of stable complexes between metal ions and extractants to hinder desorption, and prevents metal ions from occupying adsorption sites to ensure the directionality of the desorption process. The non-overlapping design of the staged desorption temperature realizes the step-by-step desorption of sec-octanol, N235 and sulfonated kerosene according to the difference in the interaction energy between different extractant components and adsorbent materials, and avoids the mixing of components caused by co-desorption.
[0021] In the regeneration stage, after the amine salt-containing waste liquid is reused to the adsorption device, the pH of the system is adjusted to the acidic range of 2.0-3.0, the function of the phosphonic acid group is reset, and the material is regenerated. The acidic working condition triggers the decomposition of amine salt into diethanolamine and organic acid, the concentration of diethanolamine is adjusted to 0.05-0.15 mol / L, the hydroxyl defects on the surface of the adsorbent are repaired through amino exchange reaction, the adsorption activity of amine group is restored, and at the same time, diethanolamine and residual organic acid undergo esterification reaction to eliminate impurity interference. The organic acid produced by the decomposition of amine salt transfers protons to promote the re-protonation of deprotonated phosphonic acid group, complete the reversible switching of catalytic site to adsorption auxiliary site, and the pH fluctuation is strictly controlled within ±0.3 to ensure that the protonation ratio is ≥90%, realizing the in-situ regeneration of adsorbent and providing stable performance for the next adsorption cycle.

[0026] 2b) pass a cooling medium into the condensate solution obtained in step 2a) to reduce the system temperature to 3-12℃, slowly add phosphorus trichloride, the molar ratio of phosphorus trichloride to ethylenediamine is 2.5-4:1, the system temperature is controlled to be ≤18℃ during the dropwise adding process, the dropwise adding time is 1-2.5 h, the temperature is increased to 35-55℃ after the dropwise adding is completed, and stirring reaction is carried out for 1.5-2.5 h to obtain a phosphonate intermediate;
[0027] 2c) add deionized water to the phosphonate intermediate obtained in step 2b), the volume ratio of the deionized water added to the deionized water in step 2a) is 1.2-2:1, the temperature is increased to 85-100℃, reflux hydrolysis reaction is carried out for 2.5-4.5 h, after the reaction is completed, the system pH is neutralized to 5.5-7.5 with 30% sodium hydroxide solution, and after concentration by reduced pressure distillation, crystallization and drying, ethylenediamine tetramethylene phosphonic acid is obtained.
[0028] As preferred, in step 3), the process parameters of the gradient vacuum distillation are as follows: the secondary octanol is separated at a vacuum degree of 0.06-0.09 MPa and a temperature of 78-88℃, and when the purity of the secondary octanol in the distillate is ≤90%, the separation endpoint is determined; the N235 and sulfonated kerosene are separated at a vacuum degree of 0.001-0.005 MPa and a temperature of 105-125℃, and the distillation is stopped when the total purity of the N235 and sulfonated kerosene in the distillate is ≤90%.

[0071] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that the temperature of the staged desorption is 58-63°C and 62-66°C, and there is a temperature overlap interval.
[0072] Expected performance: Temperature overlap causes secondary octanol to be co-desorbed with N235 and sulfonated kerosene, resulting in mixed components in the desorption liquid, significantly increasing the difficulty of subsequent separation, invalidating the effect of fractional directional recovery, and decreasing the recovery purity of each component.
[0073] Comparative Example 3
[0074] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that the amino phosphonic acid chelating agent is not added to the composite desorption agent.
[0075] Expected performance: Residual metal ions in industrial wastewater cannot be complexed to form stable complexes with extractants, resulting in decreased desorption efficiency, metal ions entering the rectification system, causing equipment corrosion and reduced separation precision.
[0076] Comparative Example 4
[0077] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that the gradient vacuum distillation has no clear separation endpoint determination, and the temperature rise rate is too fast.
[0078] Expected performance: A too-fast temperature rise rate results in insufficient separation of components, with secondary octanol and N235 and sulfonated kerosene appearing in overlapping distillates, resulting in decreased recovery purity. The absence of a separation endpoint determination causes loss of target components or mixing of impurities, resulting in reduced recovery yield.
[0079] Comparative Example 5
[0080] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that the amine salt-containing waste liquid at the bottom of the rectification tower is directly discharged without being recycled through the adsorption device.
[0081] Expected performance: The deprotonated phosphonic acid group on the surface of the adsorption material cannot be reset, and the residual hydroxyl group causes continuous decay of adsorption activity, resulting in a significant decrease in adsorption capacity after multiple uses. Discharging amine salt waste liquid causes resource waste and environmental pollution, significantly reducing process economy and environmental friendliness.
[0082] Comparative Example 6
[0083] The difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is only that the pH of the system is adjusted to 3.5-4.0 in Step 4, without controlling the pH fluctuation range.
[0084] Expected performance: The pH deviates from the appropriate interval of phosphonic acid group protonation, the proton transfer efficiency of organic acid decreases, the proportion of protonated phosphonic acid group is insufficient, the synergistic effect of the dual functional groups of the adsorption material is weakened, the subsequent adsorption capacity decreases, the pH fluctuation leads to instability of the reaction system, the amine salt decomposition is incomplete, and the diethanolamine utilization rate decreases.
[0085] Performance test method:

[0088] Test steps: Take 0.5 g of adsorption material in the examples and comparative examples, and add 50 mL of simulated industrial wastewater containing secondary octanol, N235, and sulfonated kerosene (the initial concentration of each component is 100 mg / L, pH = 2.5, and the water temperature is 30°C); use a peristaltic pump to control the water inflow of 35 L / h, and after the adsorption reaches saturation, filter the supernatant through a 0.45 μm filter membrane, and measure the equilibrium concentration of each component by ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer.
[0089] Calculation method: adsorption capacity (q) = (C0-C e ) × V / m, wherein C0 is the initial concentration, C e is the equilibrium concentration, V is the solution volume, and m is the mass of the adsorption material.
[0090] 2. Desorption performance test
[0091] Test instrument: gas chromatograph, constant temperature water bath heating device, condensation recovery device
[0092] Test steps: After the adsorption is saturated, the material is packed in a fixed bed adsorption column, and the corresponding composite desorption agent is introduced, and the desorption is carried out in stages according to the set temperature; collect the desorption liquid of each temperature stage, and measure the concentration of each extractant component in the desorption liquid by gas chromatograph, and calculate the desorption amount.
[0093] Calculation method: desorption rate (η) = desorption amount / adsorption amount × 100%.
[0094] 3. Separation purity test
[0095] Test instrument: high performance liquid chromatograph, gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer
[0096] Test steps: Take each component distillate after rectification and gradient vacuum distillation, and measure the peak area of the target component and the impurity peak area by high performance liquid chromatograph and gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer, and calculate the purity.
[0097] Calculation method: purity (P) = target component peak area / total peak area × 100%.
[0098] 4. Adsorption material cycle stability test
[0099] Test instrument: fixed bed adsorption-desorption device, ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer
[0100] Test steps: Based on the process conditions of Example 1 and Comparative Example 5, the adsorption-desorption-regeneration cycle was repeated for 10 times, and the adsorption capacity was determined after each cycle according to the adsorption performance test method provided by the application, and the adsorption capacity retention rate of each cycle was recorded.
[0101] Calculation method: capacity retention rate (R n ) = nth adsorption capacity / first adsorption capacity x 100%.
[0102] 5. Amine salt decomposition rate test
[0103] Test instrument: potentiometric titrator, ion chromatograph
[0104] Test steps: Take 10 mL of waste liquid before and after decomposition of the amine salt in step 4), determine the amine salt concentration before and after decomposition by ion chromatograph, calculate the decomposition rate; at the same time, determine the diethanolamine concentration after decomposition by potentiometric titrator, and verify the concentration control effect.
[0105] Calculation method: amine salt decomposition rate (δ) = (initial amine salt concentration - residual amine salt concentration) / initial amine salt concentration x 100%.
[0106] 6. Metal ion removal rate test
[0107] Test instrument: inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer
[0108] Test steps: Take simulated industrial wastewater containing Fe 3+ , Cu 2+ (concentration is 5 mg / L), after adsorption-desorption process, collect the desorption liquid, and determine the metal ion concentration in the desorption liquid by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer, and calculate the removal rate.
[0109] Calculation method: metal ion removal rate (k) = (initial metal ion concentration - residual metal ion concentration) / initial metal ion concentration x 100%.
[0110] Experimental data:
[0111]
[0112] Based on the above data, the adsorption capacity of Examples 1-3 of the application is 81.7 to 88.5 mg / g, which is much higher than that of Comparative Example 1 of unmodified graphene, and by adjusting the molar ratio of the two types of functional groups, the adsorption selectivity is further optimized, and the competitive adsorption of impurities in wastewater is reduced.
[0113] Secondly, the non-temperature overlapping subsection desorption mode realizes directional desorption according to the difference in interaction energy between different extractant components and the adsorbent material, avoids the co-desorption phenomenon, and cooperates with the complex desorption agent containing the amino phosphonic acid type chelating agent to complex the metal ions in the industrial wastewater. The desorption rates of the secondary octanol in examples 1-3 and N235 and sulfonated kerosene are all above 95%, the metal ion removal rates are all above 92%, the desorption rate and the purity of comparative example 2 both decrease by about 10% due to temperature overlap, the metal ion removal rate of comparative example 3 is only 35.7% when no chelating agent is added, and the desorption and separation effects are significantly attenuated. The combination process of rectification and gradient vacuum distillation effectively solves the separation problem of components with close boiling points by adjusting the temperature and vacuum degree, so that the recovery purity of each component in examples 1-3 is above 93%, and the purity of comparative example 4 without a clear separation endpoint and with too fast heating rate is improved by 8%-10%.
[0114] Thirdly, after the amine salt-containing waste liquid is reused to the adsorption device, the amine salt is efficiently decomposed under acidic conditions, the decomposition rates of examples 1-3 are all above 97%, the generated diethanolamine repairs the hydroxyl defects on the surface of the adsorbent material through amino exchange reaction, and the organic acid pushes the deprotonated phosphonic acid group to reset through proton transfer, so as to ensure the cycle stability of the adsorbent material. The 10-cycle capacity retention rates of examples 1-3 are 89.3% to 92.7%, the material cannot be regenerated due to direct discharge of the waste liquid in comparative example 5, and the 10-cycle retention rate is only 58.3%, and the decomposition rate of the amine salt and the cycle stability are both greatly decreased in comparative example 6 because the pH deviates from the appropriate interval and is not controlled to fluctuate.
