Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of water treatment and environmental protection technology, specifically relating to an ionic sodium sulfonate-based covalent organic framework material, its preparation method, and its application in effectively capturing and removing potassium ions from water. Background Technology
[0002] Controlling metal ion pollution has always been a challenging issue in water treatment and environmental protection. Metal ions can enter the human body through the food chain, and long-term accumulation can lead to various health problems, including nervous system damage and kidney disease. Furthermore, metal ions can react with other chemicals in water to form toxic compounds, further exacerbating water pollution. Therefore, developing effective metal ion removal technologies is crucial for ensuring water safety and human health. Potassium ions (K+) are one of the essential electrolytes for the human body, but excessive intake can also have health effects. In the human body, hyperkalemia can lead to heart problems, such as arrhythmia or even cardiac arrest. Environmentally, excessive potassium ions in wastewater and soil also pose serious hazards. Excessive potassium ion discharge into water bodies can cause imbalances in aquatic ecosystems, affecting the growth and reproduction of aquatic organisms and even triggering algal blooms. In soil, excessive accumulation of potassium ions can affect soil structure, reduce soil fertility, and consequently affect crop growth and yield. Currently, potassium ion removal technologies mainly include ion exchange, membrane separation, and adsorption. While ion exchange is effective, it is costly and requires regular resin replacement. Membrane separation technology suffers from problems such as membrane fouling and high energy consumption. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs), as a novel type of porous material, exhibit great potential in removing metal ions due to their highly ordered porous structure, uniform and adjustable pore size, large specific surface area, and the ability to be precisely designed and constructed through organic synthesis methods to achieve diverse functions. However, the synthesis of COF materials typically requires high temperature and pressure, resulting in high energy consumption, environmental unfriendliness, and inconsistencies with the principles of green chemistry. Strict control of synthesis conditions and long overall time consumption also limit their large-scale production and application. Therefore, developing novel, green, and efficient covalent organic framework materials for the efficient removal of potassium ions from water and soil is of great significance not only for improving water and soil quality and protecting human health but also for promoting environmental protection and sustainable development.

[0070] Figure 1 The characterization results of the COF-SO3Na material prepared in Example 1 are presented. First, the crystallinity of COF-SO3Na was evaluated using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD). Figure 1 (a) A strong diffraction peak corresponding to the crystal plane (100) was observed at 2.9°, indicating that the prepared COF-SO3Na material has good crystallinity. The Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrum of COF-SO3Na is shown in (a). Figure 1 (b) Figure 1 In (b), observations were made at 1175, 1592, and 1618 cm. -1 Characteristic peaks corresponding to CN, C=C, and C=O bonds were observed nearby, indicating that a Schiff base reaction occurred between the monomers, and that COF-SO3Na maintained a stable state. βIt exists in the form of ketene-enamine. COF-SO3Na exhibits good thermal and chemical stability. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) under N2 atmosphere, from 30℃ to 800℃ at a heating rate of 10℃ / min, shows that COF-SO3Na has good thermal stability below 300℃, with a weight loss of about 10%, and maintains the integrity of its crystal structure in acid (1M HCl), alkali (1M NaOH), water, and the organic solvent DMF.

[0071] Example 5
[0072] Example 1: Method for potassium ion removal by adsorption of ionic sodium sulfonate-based covalent organic framework prepared in Example 1 First, the effect of pH on the adsorption of potassium ions by COF-SO3Na was investigated. Figure 3 In step (a), 10 mg of COF-SO3Na was added to 5 mL of a potassium ion solution (1 mg / L) with pH = 2-12. The solution was shaken for 10 min at room temperature (25℃). The supernatant was centrifuged to determine the concentration of potassium ions. The results showed that the adsorption efficiency first increased and then decreased with increasing pH. The adsorption performance of COF-SO3Na for potassium ions was optimal at pH 6. After centrifuging to remove COF-SO3Na, the concentration of residual potassium ions in the solution after adsorption was measured by ICP-MS. The adsorption efficiency was calculated using formula (1).
[0073] (1) in c 0 (mg / L) and c e (mg / L) is the concentration of potassium ions in the solution before and after COF-SO3Na adsorption.
[0074] Then the effect of COF-SO3Na feed concentration on adsorption efficiency was investigated. Figure 3 In (b), 5, 10, and 15 mg of COF-SO3Na were added to 5 mL of a potassium ion solution (1 mg / L) at pH 6. The mixture was stirred for 10 min at room temperature (25℃), and the potassium ion concentration was determined by centrifugation of the supernatant. The results showed that the adsorption efficiency increased with the increase of COF-SO3Na adsorbent concentration. To ensure that COF-SO3Na can effectively remove potassium ions in practical applications while avoiding waste and cost control caused by excessive adsorbent, batch adsorption experiments were conducted at pH 6 and a COF-SO3Na feed concentration of 2 mg / mL.
[0075] Next, the effect of contact time on the adsorption of potassium ions by COF-SO3Na was investigated. Figure 3 In step (c), 40 mg of COF-SO3Na was added to 20 mL of a 600 mg / L potassium ion solution at pH 6 and the process was carried out at room temperature (25 °C), with samples taken periodically. After centrifugation, the concentration of potassium ions in the supernatant was measured. The rapid adsorption in the initial stage can be attributed to the large number of available binding sites on COF-SO3Na and the concentration gradient at the solution-material interface. The adsorption of potassium ions by COF-SO3Na reached equilibrium within 10 minutes.
[0076] To investigate the saturated adsorption capacity of COF-SO3Na, adsorption isotherms were examined at different initial potassium ion concentrations (0.5-1000 mg / L, pH=6, COF-SO3Na feed concentration of 2 mg / mL, and stirring at room temperature (25℃) for 10 min). Figure 3 (d) The Langmuir saturated adsorption capacity of COF-SO3Na is 113.06 mg / g, close to the experimental maximum adsorption capacity of 108.54 mg / g. Adsorption capacity q e (mg / g) is calculated using formula (2).
[0077] (2) Where V (L) is the solution volume and m (g) is the mass of COF-SO3Na.
[0078] like Figure 3As shown in Figure (e), to investigate the effect of temperature on the adsorption of potassium ions by COF-SO3Na, the adsorption efficiency of COF-SO3Na for potassium ions was tested under different temperature conditions. 10 mg of COF-SO3Na was added to 5 mL of a potassium ion solution (1 mg / L) at pH 6, and the mixture was stirred for 1 h at different temperatures. After centrifugation, the concentration of potassium ions in the supernatant was measured. With increasing temperature, the adsorption capacity of COF-SO3Na for potassium ions decreased significantly, indicating that the adsorption reaction has exothermic characteristics. The thermodynamic parameters of the reaction were calculated according to the Gibbs-Helmholtz equation, where the Gibbs free energy change (… Δ G 0 The value of COF-SO3Na is negative, and the negative value becomes smaller and smaller as the temperature increases, indicating that the adsorption of potassium ions by COF-SO3Na is thermodynamically spontaneous, but the degree of spontaneity of the adsorption reaction decreases as the temperature increases.
[0079] Example 6
[0080] A method for removing potassium ions from paddy soil by adsorption of ionic sodium sulfonate-based covalent organic framework. In real-world environments, especially in soil systems, potassium ions often coexist with various metal ions, such as Na+. + Mg 2 + Ca 2+ Cu 2+ Zn 2+ To investigate the feasibility of COF-SO3Na in practical applications in soil, the adsorption efficiency of COF-SO3Na for potassium ions in real paddy soil digestate (provided by the Environmental Protection Research and Monitoring Institute (Tianjin)) from different regions (Tianjin, Sichuan, Guizhou, and Hunan) was tested. Figure 4 Weigh 0.2 g of dried soil sample (passed through a 100-mesh sieve) into a 50 ml PTFE tube. Add a few drops of ultrapure water to moisten the soil, then add 5 mL of hydrofluoric acid (HF), followed by 5 mL of perchloric acid (HClO4). Place the PTFE tube on a porous graphite furnace and heat to dryness at 200-250℃. When the contents are nearly dry and the residue in the crucible is viscous, remove it and let it cool slightly. Rinse the inner wall of the crucible with a small amount of dilute hydrochloric acid (HCl) or water, and heat to dryness again to completely remove residual fluoride ions (F). -Finally, the remaining residue was dissolved by heating with dilute hydrochloric acid (1:1 HCl), transferred to a volumetric flask, and diluted to the mark to obtain the soil digestion solution. 20 mg of COF-SO3Na was added to 5 mL of the soil digestion solution at pH=6, stirred at room temperature for 10 min, and the potassium ion concentration was determined by centrifugation of the supernatant. The results showed that the adsorption performance of COF-SO3Na was slightly affected, but the removal rate of potassium ions remained above 80%. The recoverability and reusability of the adsorbent are another key factor in evaluating its actual performance. After adsorbing potassium ions, COF-SO3Na was immersed in a 0.1 mol / L NaNO3 solution and stirred for 6 hours, then repeatedly washed with deionized water until the solution became neutral, thus easily regenerating the adsorbent. Figure 5 It can be seen that the adsorption capacity of COF-SO3Na for potassium ions decreases with increasing number of reuses. After 8 adsorption-elution cycles, the removal rate of potassium ions by COF-SO3Na decreased by 13%, which may be due to the structural collapse of COF-SO3Na and the loss of adsorbent mass caused by washing during the regeneration process. These experimental results demonstrate that COF-SO3Na possesses good anti-interference ability and great application potential as an adsorbent for removing potassium ions from soil.
[0081] Example 7
[0082] A Mechanism Analysis Method for the Adsorption of Potassium Ions by an Ionic Sodium Sulfonate-Based Covalent Organic Framework To investigate the adsorption mechanism of COF-SO3Na, various characterization methods were used to explore the adsorption mechanism of potassium ions by COF-SO3Na. Figure 2 Images (e) and (f) show the elemental spectra of COF-SO3Na before and after potassium ion adsorption using scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). A comparison reveals that after potassium ion adsorption, COF-SO3Na exhibits a more uniformly distributed K signal, while the Na signal is significantly weakened. Further analysis of the EDX images of COF-SO3Na before and after potassium ion adsorption... Figure 2 Analysis of the (g)-(h) spectrum showed that the mass percentage of Na decreased, while the mass percentage of K increased significantly from zero. These results confirm that potassium ions were successfully adsorbed by COF-SO3Na, thus preliminarily determining that the adsorption mechanism is ion exchange.
[0083] To further elucidate the adsorption mechanism of potassium ions on COF-SO3Na, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to characterize the samples before and after adsorption. The XPS spectra further confirmed that potassium ions were adsorbed onto COF-SO3Na. Figure 6In (a), the characteristic peak of K is clearly visible in the full XPS spectrum, and the characteristic peak signals of K 2p1 / 2 (296.03 eV) and K 2p3 / 2 (293.31 eV) are detected in the fine spectrum. Figure 6 (b)). From Figure 6 The fine spectrum of Na 1s in (c) clearly shows that after COF-SO3Na adsorbs potassium ions, the peak area of the characteristic Na 1s peak is significantly reduced. This phenomenon further confirms that there is an ion exchange mechanism in the process of COF-SO3Na adsorbing potassium ions.
[0084] To more fully and intuitively evaluate the adsorption performance of COF-SO3Na, as shown in Table 2 and... Figure 7 The maximum adsorption capacity and adsorption time of potassium ions by the COF-SO3Na prepared in this invention were compared with those of other adsorbents reported in the literature. Comparative analysis revealed that the prepared COF-SO3Na exhibits superior adsorption capacity for potassium ions compared to most reported adsorbents.
