Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of heavy metal ion detection, and particularly relates to a method for detecting ferrous ions in the environment. Background Technology

[0002] Iron ions play a central role in natural cycles and human activities, and are widely distributed in natural water bodies and soil environments. In the environmental field, Fe2+ is abundant in groundwater and surface water. 2+ The content of Fe directly indicates the redox state and dissolved oxygen level of a water body. Its dynamic changes not only affect the sensory characteristics of water quality and drive the migration of pollutants, but may also cause ecological hypoxia. Therefore, it is a key parameter for assessing drinking water safety and ecosystem balance. 2+ The environmental behavior of phosphorus is complex. Its redox processes directly regulate the speciation and migration of heavy metals, the degradation of organic pollutants, and the bioavailability of phosphorus in water, thus profoundly impacting overall ecosystem health, water quality safety, and soil function. Therefore, the environmental impact of Fe... 2+ Accurate and timely concentration monitoring and speciation identification are crucial for assessing environmental pollution, tracing pollution sources, studying elemental geochemical behavior, and implementing effective environmental management and remediation strategies. The current industry standard HJ / T 345-2007 uses the o-phenanthroline spectrophotometric method to determine Fe. 2+ The minimum detection concentration is 0.03 mg / L, resulting in low sensitivity that cannot meet the requirements of high-sensitivity detection items. The chromogenic reagent, o-phenanthroline, is easily decomposed by light, exhibiting poor stability and a short shelf life. Furthermore, o-phenanthroline can form colored complexes with various metal ions, exhibiting poor anti-interference ability. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a Fe chromogenic reagent with high sensitivity, good stability, and strong anti-interference ability. 2+ A rapid detection method.

The mixture was then cooled to 80 °C, and 50 mL of anhydrous ethanol was added. The temperature was lowered to room temperature with stirring for 3 hours.

Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown.

[0074] The structure is as follows:

[0075]

[0076] Example 2

[0077] The application of the colorimetric reagent prepared in Example 1 in the detection of ferrous ions includes the following steps:

[0078] (1) The tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin prepared in Example 1 is itself a pink liquid ( Figure 1 ),like Figure 2 As shown, an absorption peak is observed at 417 nm under UV-Vis spectrophotometry. When Fe is added... 2+ Occasionally, orange-red complexes TCPP-Fe are present. 2+ generate( Figure 1 That is, when 2 ml of 1 g / L colorimetric reagent solution is added to 5 ml of 2 mg / L ferrous standard solution, an orange-red complex TCPP-Fe is formed. 2+ (Generation), TCPP-Fe 2+ An absorption peak is generated at 441 nm, such as Figure 3 As shown.

[0079] (2) Determination of surfactants: Three different types of surfactants, namely 4% hydroxylamine hydrochloride, Tween-80, and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), were prepared. 1 ml of each type of surfactant and 1 ml of deionized water were added to each, along with 5 ml of 2 mg / L ferrous standard solution and 2 ml of 1 g / L tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin chromogenic reagent. 20% hydrochloric acid solution was added until the pH of the system reached 5, and the volume was adjusted to 10 ml with deionized water. After standing at room temperature for 15 min, the solution was measured using a UV spectrophotometer. The surfactant-free TCPP-Fe... 2+ The complex solution served as a control, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the TCPP-Fe of hydroxylamine hydrochloride surfactant 2+ The absorbance of the complex was similar to that of the control TCPP-Fe. 2+ The absorbance of the complex was significantly higher, so hydroxylamine hydrochloride was chosen as the surfactant.

[0080] (3) pH determination: Prepare systems with different pH values. Take 1 mL of 4% hydroxylamine hydrochloride solution, 5 mL of 2 mg / L ferrous standard solution, and 2 mL of 1 g / L colorimetric reagent solution. Add 20% hydrochloric acid solution until the pH of the system is 4-9, and then dilute to 10 mL with deionized water. After standing at room temperature for 15 min, measure the pH using a UV spectrophotometer. Figure 5 As shown, in the system at pH=5, TCPP-Fe 2+ The complex had the highest absorbance value, so a reaction system with pH=5 was ultimately chosen.

[0081] (4) Take 0.4 mL, 0.6 mL, 0.8 mL, 1.0 mL, 1.2 mL, 1.4 mL, 1.6 mL, 1.8 mL, and 2.0 mL of 4% hydroxylamine hydrochloride, respectively, and add 5 mL of 2 mg / L ferrous standard solution and 2 mL of 1 g / L tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin colorimetric reagent to each solution. Add 20% hydrochloric acid solution until the pH of the system is 5, and then dilute to 10 mL with deionized water. After standing at room temperature for 15 min, determine the concentration using a UV spectrophotometer. (The last sentence appears to be incomplete and possibly refers to a specific method or method.) 2+ The complex solution served as a control, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the absorbance of 4% hydroxylamine hydrochloride surfactant at a dosage of 1.0 mL is the highest and most stable.

[0082] (5) Determination of the optimal amount of colorimetric reagent: Mix 1 mL of 4% hydroxylamine hydrochloride solution with 5 mL of ferrous standard solution with a concentration of 2 mg / L, and add 0.2 mL, 0.4 mL, 0.7 mL, 1.0 mL, 1.5 mL, and 2.0 mL of tetrakis(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin solution (1 g / L) respectively. Add 20% hydrochloric acid solution to the pH of the system to 5, and then dilute to 10 mL with deionized water. After standing at room temperature for 15 min, measure the absorbance of the complex using a UV spectrophotometer. As the amount of colorimetric reagent increases, the absorbance of the complex gradually increases; for example... Figure 7 When the amount of colorimetric reagent reaches 1.5~2.0 mL, the absorbance increases to its maximum and tends to stabilize. Therefore, 2.0 mL was selected as the optimal amount of colorimetric reagent for the determination.

[0083] (6) According to the optimal method in step (5), the static reaction time is 5-30 min. For example... Figure 8 As shown, when the reaction time reaches 15 min, the absorbance increases to its maximum and tends to stabilize.

[0084] (7) According to the optimal method in step (6), the temperature during the static reaction is 10-60 ℃. For example... Figure 9 As shown, the absorbance increases to its maximum when the reaction temperature is 30 °C.

[0085] Example 3

[0086] Prepare the colorimetric reagent solution (concentration of 1 g / L) prepared in Example 1, 20% hydrochloric acid solution, and 4% hydroxylamine hydrochloride solution. At the same time, prepare ferrous ion solutions of different concentrations for later use. Each substance is detected according to the optimal addition amount and optimal detection method in step (7) of Example 2.

[0087] The determination was performed spectrophotometrically. The chromogenic reagent reacted with different concentrations of ferrous ions to form complexes, with a solution of the same concentration of chromogenic reagent serving as a blank control. The absorbance of each concentration of the complex solution and the blank control solution was measured. A standard working curve was plotted with the difference in absorbance as the ordinate and the corresponding ferrous ion concentration as the abscissa. Figure 10 As shown, within the concentration range of 0–0.8 mg / L (ppm), the standard curve regression equation is y = 0.05237 + 1.02453x (R²). 2 =0.99773), the detection limit for ferrous ions was 0.0048 mg / L, and the detection range was 0–0.8 mg / L. Precision was evaluated by relative standard deviation (RSD), which was calculated to be 2.46%.

[0091] Experiments have shown that the tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphyrin in the method of this invention can produce color changes with Ag, Hg, Pb, Co, Cu, and Zn metal ions. To avoid the influence of other metal ions on Fe... 2+ To detect interference, a mixed masking agent was selected: 1 mL of 0.1 mol / L thiourea, 1 mL of 0.1 mol / L sodium citrate, 0.5 mL of 0.02 mol / L NaF, and 5 mL of 2 mg / L other metal ions and Fe were added according to the optimal method in step (7) of Example 2. 2+ The reaction was shown in Tables 1 and 2. The relative error of the permissible amount of various interfering ions was within ±5%. It was found that after adding the masking agent, other metal ions reacted with Fe. 2+ The coexistence ratio of Zn is: 2+ Pb 2+ Cu 2+ Co 2+ Hg 2+ Ni 2+ Mn 2+ (5); Ag + Cd 2+ (2.5); K + Na + Li + Ca 2+ Mg 2+ Ba 2+ Al 3+ (20) The detection of ferrous iron is not affected by the coexistence of other metal ions.

[0096] 2. Recovery rate experiment:

[0097] To verify the reliability of this method in actual samples, Fe in actual water samples was analyzed using the optimal method according to step (7) of Example 2. 2+ The detection work was carried out. Two samples were taken: Sample 1 was taken from the pickling solution of iron parts, and Sample 2 was taken from high-phosphorus wastewater from an electroplating company. 50 mL of the stock solution was filtered through a 2 μm filter membrane for analysis. The filtrate was colorless and transparent, without any interfering colors. The experimental environment was consistent with the previously optimized conditions, ensuring the accuracy of the colorimetric reaction. Samples containing 0, 0.3, and 0.6 mg / L Fe were selected. 2+ Spiked recovery experiments were conducted on two types of samples.
