Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of water pollution control, specifically to a wastewater treatment agent containing phenolic resin and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] With rapid industrial development, wastewater discharged from industries such as electroplating, metallurgy, and dyeing contains large amounts of heavy metal ions (such as Cu²⁺ and Pb²⁺) and organic pollutants (such as dyes and phenolic compounds), posing a serious threat to the aquatic environment. Currently used water treatment agents include activated carbon, ion exchange resins, and inorganic adsorbents, but these have significant limitations: activated carbon has a limited adsorption capacity for heavy metal ions and is difficult to regenerate; ion exchange resins are expensive and have poor selectivity for organic pollutants; and inorganic adsorbents such as zeolite and clay are easily saturated and may cause secondary pollution.

[0003] Phenolic resin, as a polymer material with a three-dimensional network structure, shows great potential in water treatment due to its large specific surface area, good chemical stability, and readily available raw materials. However, ordinary phenolic resins have a single surface functional group, resulting in insufficient adsorption selectivity and capacity for specific pollutants. Furthermore, unreacted monomers may leach out during use, leading to secondary pollution problems. For example, the phenolic resin adsorbent disclosed in Chinese patent CN112125234A, while possessing certain adsorption performance, lacks targeted chemical modification, resulting in poor synergistic removal of heavy metals and organic pollutants in complex wastewater systems.

[0004] While some studies have explored ways to improve adsorption performance through amino modification or Schiff base reactions, these approaches often employ a single modification strategy, making it difficult to simultaneously address the synergistic removal of heavy metals and organic pollutants. Furthermore, traditional crosslinking agents such as formaldehyde may pose environmental risks, and conventional preparation processes suffer from low efficiency in introducing functional groups and poor structural stability, limiting their practical application.

[0005] Therefore, developing a phenolic resin-based water treatment agent with high adsorption capacity, excellent selectivity and good stability, capable of effectively removing heavy metal ions and organic pollutants simultaneously and avoiding secondary pollution, has become a pressing technical challenge in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a wastewater treatment agent containing phenolic resin and its preparation method, which can effectively prevent secondary pollution and is particularly suitable for the treatment of mixed wastewater from electroplating and dyeing.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is:

[0008] In a first aspect, this application provides a method for preparing a modified phenolic resin, characterized by comprising the following steps:

[0009] (1) Phenolic resin and aminosilane are reacted in solvent A in the presence of a catalyst to obtain amino-modified phenolic resin.

[0010] (2) The amino-modified phenolic resin and the aldehyde reagent were subjected to a Schiff base reaction in solvent B. The reaction system was adjusted to acidic conditions with an acidic pH adjuster to obtain a modified phenolic resin containing a Schiff base structure.

[0011] (3) The modified phenolic resin containing Schiff base structure is subjected to a crosslinking reaction with a crosslinking agent under alkaline conditions. The reaction system is adjusted to alkaline conditions with an alkaline pH adjuster to obtain a wastewater treatment agent containing phenolic resin.

[0012] Optionally, in step (1), the phenolic resin is a thermoplastic phenolic resin; the aminosilane is selected from at least one of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, N-phenylaminomethyltriethoxysilane, N-(n-butyl)-3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane, aminosilane oligomers, α-aminomethyltriethoxysilane, and 4-aminobutyltriethoxysilane.

[0013] Optionally, in step (1), the mass ratio of the phenolic resin to the aminosilane is 1:0.25 to 0.35; the amount of the catalyst is 0.6% to 0.8% of the mass of the phenolic resin; the reaction temperature is 70℃ to 75℃; and the reaction time is 3h to 3.5h.

[0014] Optionally, in step (2), the aldehyde reagent is selected from at least one of salicylaldehyde, vanillin, 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde, pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde, and furan-2-carboxaldehyde; the molar ratio of the amino-modified phenolic resin to the aldehyde reagent is 1:1.2 to 1.4.

[0015] Optionally, in step (2), the acidic pH adjuster adjusts the pH of the reaction system to 4.5 to 5.0; the Schiff base reaction temperature is 55℃ to 60℃, and the reaction time is 5h to 6h.

[0016] Optionally, in step (3), the crosslinking agent is selected from at least one of epichlorohydrin, glycidyl sulfonate, γ-glycidyl etheroxypropyltrimethoxysilane, epoxy resin type crosslinking agent, isocyanate, and vinyl sulfone; the mass ratio of the modified phenolic resin containing Schiff base structure to the crosslinking agent is 1:0.08 to 0.12.

[0017] Optionally, in step (3), the alkaline pH adjuster adjusts the pH of the reaction system to 9-10; the temperature of the crosslinking reaction is 75℃-80℃, and the reaction time is 2h-2.5h.

[0018] Secondly, this application provides a wastewater treatment agent containing phenolic resin, which is prepared by the method for preparing a modified phenolic resin as described in the first aspect.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0020] This invention successfully prepared a high-performance phenolic resin-containing wastewater treatment agent through a three-step continuous chemical modification process, effectively solving the technical defects of existing water treatment materials, such as low adsorption capacity, poor selectivity, and susceptibility to secondary pollution for heavy metals and organic pollutants. The method introduces heavy metal chelating sites through aminosilane modification, constructs organic pollutant adsorption sites through Schiff base reactions, and forms a stable three-dimensional network through cross-linking reactions, achieving synergistic effects of multiple adsorption functions and structural stabilization.

[0021] The reagent exhibits excellent comprehensive performance, with an adsorption capacity of ≥45mg / g for Cu²⁺ and ≥60mg / g for methylene blue, significantly higher than that of unmodified phenolic resin. The cross-linked network structure effectively prevents the leaching of functional components, avoiding secondary pollution. At the same time, the synergistic effect of its functional groups enables it to have good selective adsorption capacity in complex wastewater systems and remains stable over a wide pH range, making it particularly suitable for the treatment of mixed wastewater from electroplating and dyeing.

[0022] The preparation process of this invention uses readily available raw materials, mild reaction conditions, and closely linked steps, making it easy to scale up production. The resulting reagent combines high-efficiency adsorption with long-term stability, reducing the dosage per unit treatment and replacement frequency. It effectively controls the overall application cost while improving the wastewater treatment effect. Attached Figure Description

[0059] Example 5

[0060] This invention discloses a method for preparing a wastewater treatment agent containing phenolic resin, comprising the following steps:

[0061] First, in a reaction vessel, 10 parts by weight of thermoplastic phenolic resin and 2.6 parts by weight of aminosilane oligomer (ammonia value 300 mg KOH / g) were co-dispersed in 16 parts by weight of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran and stirred until homogeneous. 0.065 parts by weight of hydrochloric acid were added as a catalyst, and the reaction was stirred at 71°C for 3.4 hours. The post-reaction treatment was the same as step (1) in Example 4, yielding amino-modified phenolic resin.

[0062] Next, 10 parts by weight of the amino-modified phenolic resin obtained in step (1) were redispersed in 22 parts by weight of isopropanol. 12.5 parts by weight of furan-2-carboxaldehyde were added dropwise, while the pH was adjusted to 4.9 using acetic acid.

[0065] In the embodiments of this application, Figure 1The bar chart visually demonstrates the adsorption capacity (Qe, unit: mg / g) of Cu²⁺ in simulated wastewater using water treatment agents prepared according to the method of this invention using five different aldehyde reagents: salicylaldehyde, vanillin, 2-hydroxy-1-naphthal, pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde, and furan-2-carboxaldehyde. The bar chart clearly shows that among all tested aldehyde reagents, the agent prepared with salicylaldehyde exhibits the highest Cu²⁺ adsorption capacity, exceeding 46 mg / g, significantly superior to the other aldehyde reagents. This chart directly proves that the choice of aldehyde reagent has a crucial impact on the adsorption performance of heavy metal ions in the final product and verifies the preferred position of salicylaldehyde in the technical solution of this invention. Furthermore, the adsorption capacity of all products in the examples is significantly higher than that of ordinary unmodified phenolic resin, reflecting the significant effect of this invention's dual modification strategy of aminosilane and Schiff base reaction in enhancing heavy metal adsorption capacity.

[0066] In the embodiments of this application, Figure 2 Showing with Figure 1 A comparison of the adsorption capacity of five products from the same series for methylene blue, a model molecule of organic pollutants. Data shows that the product prepared using salicylaldehyde also exhibits the best adsorption performance, with a capacity exceeding 62 mg / g. The graphs reveal the differences in the adsorption capacity of organic dye molecules for the Schiff base structure and its associated functional groups (such as ortho-hydroxyl groups and aromatic rings) introduced by different aldehyde reagents. These results are consistent with... Figure 1 The combined results demonstrate that the method described in this invention (especially when using salicylaldehyde) can synergistically enhance the removal capacity of heavy metal ions and organic pollutants, achieving the design objective of multiple effects with a single agent, and providing experimental evidence for solving the problem of multiple pollutant coexistence in complex wastewater systems.

[0067] In the embodiments of this application, Figure 3 Microscopic images of the water treatment agent prepared in Example 1 (using salicylaldehyde as the aldehyde reagent) at high magnification are provided. SEM images show that the modified phenolic resin agent exhibits a porous, rough surface morphology and a certain three-dimensional network structure. This structure significantly increases the specific surface area of ​​the material, providing more active sites for pollutant adsorption. More importantly, the images show a uniformly covered modified layer with a dense structure, confirming the successful construction of a stable surface structure and internal network through three-step chemical modification (aminosilane grafting, Schiff base reaction, and crosslinking). This microstructure is one of the key pieces of evidence explaining the high adsorption capacity, good stability (effectively preventing the dissolution of functional components), and excellent selectivity of the product of this invention, supporting the technical effects of this invention from a morphological perspective.

[0068] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit it. 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. Such modifications or substitutions will 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.
