Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of bisphenol A removal technology, specifically a method for removing bisphenol A from recycled materials. Background Technology
[0002] With the advancement of dual-carbon goals, the recycling of renewable materials has become a key focus. Bisphenol A (BPA) aromatic polycarbonates, due to their excellent transparency, toughness, temperature resistance, and large-scale production capabilities, are widely used in optical devices, medical devices, automotive manufacturing, construction, and packaging. However, because BPA degrades in the environment to produce bisphenol A (BPA), which is harmful to human health and the environment, effective BPA removal is necessary. Currently, BPA removal is mainly achieved through physical adsorption, chemical degradation, and biodegradation. However, these methods suffer from limitations such as limited adsorption capacity, difficult regeneration, numerous byproducts, low processing efficiency, and long processing cycles.
[0003] Therefore, it is of great significance to develop an effective method for removing bisphenol A from recycled materials. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for removing bisphenol A from recycled materials, thereby solving the problems raised in the prior art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A method for removing bisphenol A from recycled materials includes the following steps: S1: Sorting out recycled polycarbonate materials, washing, drying, and crushing to obtain polycarbonate powder; S2: Add polycarbonate powder, methanol and tetrahydrofuran to a reaction vessel, heat and stir to dissolve, add zinc oxide-sodium aluminate catalyst, stir at 100-130℃ for 30-60 min, cool, rotary evaporate, wash and filter, add deionized water to re-dissolve, heat and mix, filter to remove impurities, and obtain crude bisphenol A solution. S3: Add the iron oxide-cyclodextrin catalyst to the crude bisphenol A solution, stir and mix well, add potassium persulfate, and react at room temperature to obtain the bisphenol A degradation solution.
[0006] Furthermore, in step S1, the crushing process is carried out at 15,000-20,000 r / min, and the powder size is 40-200 mesh.
[0007] Further, in step S2, the mass ratio of polycarbonate powder, methanol, tetrahydrofuran, and zinc oxide-sodium aluminate catalyst is 10:(20-40):(60-80):(0.5-1.5).
[0008] Further, in step S2, the preparation method of the zinc oxide-sodium aluminate catalyst is as follows: the precursor powder is added to the reaction vessel, heated to 600-800℃ at 3-5℃, kept at the temperature for 1-2 hours, then placed in methanol, ultrasonically activated, and vacuum dried to obtain the zinc oxide-sodium aluminate composite catalyst.
[0009] Further, the preparation method of the precursor powder is as follows: zinc nitrate hexahydrate and aluminum nitrate nonahydrate are added to an ethanol aqueous solution and stirred to form a zinc-aluminum salt solution. Sodium hydroxide is added to an ethanol aqueous solution and stirred to form an alkaline solution. The zinc-aluminum salt solution and the alkaline solution are simultaneously pumped into a hypergravity reactor and reacted at 60-80℃ for 3-5 hours. The mixture is then spray-dried, cooled to room temperature, and the powder is collected to obtain the precursor powder. During the preparation of the precursor powder, the molar ratio of zinc nitrate hexahydrate, aluminum nitrate nonahydrate, and sodium hydroxide is (1-2):(0.5-1):(0.05-0.15).
[0010] Further, in step S3, the mass ratio of iron oxide-cyclodextrin catalyst, crude bisphenol A solution and potassium persulfate is (1-2):10:(0.5-1).
[0011] Further, in step S3, the preparation method of the iron oxide-cyclodextrin catalyst is as follows: add boron-doped iron oxide and hexafluorotetraic acid-cyclodextrin to deionized water, stir and mix well, add 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide, stir and react at room temperature for 12-24 h to obtain the iron oxide-cyclodextrin catalyst; In the preparation of the iron oxide-cyclodextrin catalyst, the mass ratio of boron amino-doped iron oxide, hexafluorotetraic acid-cyclodextrin, 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide is 10:(10-20):(4-8):(1.2-3.6).
[0012] Further, the preparation method of the boron-doped iron oxide is as follows: add boron-doped iron oxide to an ethanol-hydrochloric acid mixture, mix it by ultrasonication, then add an ethanol solution containing 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, stir the reaction for 12-24 hours, perform magnetic separation, wash and dry to obtain boron-doped iron oxide.

[0014] Further, the preparation method of the hexafluorotetraic acid-cyclodextrin is as follows: β-cyclodextrin and hexafluorotetraic acid are added to a reaction vessel, potassium dihydrogen phosphate and deionized water are added, and the reaction is carried out at 100-140℃ for 1.5-3.5h. After washing and drying, hexafluorotetraic acid-cyclodextrin is obtained. In the preparation of hexafluorotetraic acid-cyclodextrin, the molar ratio of β-cyclodextrin, hexafluorotetraic acid, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate is 1:(3-5):(0.1-0.2).
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. This invention introduces zinc oxide-sodium aluminate as a catalyst for the degradation of polycarbonate. First, a zinc oxide-sodium aluminate composite catalyst is prepared using a centrifugal method, resulting in a uniform particle size distribution, good catalytic activity and stability, and ease of industrial production. Second, sodium aluminate is a solid base catalyst; its combination with zinc oxide increases the active sites and basicity of the catalyst, thereby increasing the rate of polycarbonate degradation and effectively improving the purity of bisphenol A generated from polycarbonate degradation while reducing byproducts.
[0016] 2. This invention introduces boron-doped iron oxide with amino groups. First, by introducing boron into iron oxide through in-situ doping, not only can the continuous generation of free radicals be maintained, improving the catalytic activity of iron oxide for bisphenol A, but it can also form a magnetic phase in the iron oxide, which is beneficial for catalyst recovery. Second, the boron-doped iron oxide is modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. On the one hand, this improves the dispersibility of the boron-doped iron oxide in the crude bisphenol A solution; on the other hand, the amino groups on it can react with the carboxyl groups in hexafluorotetraic acid-cyclodextrin, providing sufficient active sites for cyclodextrin-coupled iron oxide.
[0017] 3. This invention introduces hexafluorotetraic acid-cyclodextrin. On one hand, hexafluorotetraic acid can act as a cross-linking agent, enabling cyclodextrin to fully cross-link, giving it good chemical stability and hydrophobicity, preventing the detachment of bisphenol A adsorbed by cyclodextrin, thereby improving the efficiency of bisphenol A degradation by the iron oxide-cyclodextrin catalyst. On the other hand, cyclodextrin can specifically adsorb bisphenol A in crude bisphenol A solution, promoting a Fenton-like reaction in boron-doped iron oxide, thereby improving the catalytic efficiency of the iron oxide-cyclodextrin catalyst.

[0032] Table 1 Performance test data for removing bisphenol A from recycled materials
[0033] Conclusion: By optimizing the chemical treatment process and catalyst ratio, bisphenol A in recycled polycarbonate materials can be effectively removed.
[0034] In Comparative Example 1, zinc oxide was used as the catalyst only during the degradation of polycarbonate. This reduced the active sites and basicity of the catalyst, which not only decreased the catalytic efficiency of the catalyst but also reduced the purity of bisphenol A and increased the amount of byproducts, which is not conducive to the effective removal of bisphenol A in subsequent processes.
[0035] In Comparative Example 2, the lack of amination modification of boron-doped iron oxide not only reduced the dispersibility of iron oxide in the crude bisphenol A solution but also prevented it from chemically coupling with cyclodextrin, thus reducing the efficiency of the synergistic catalytic effect and increasing the residual amount of bisphenol A in the bisphenol A degradation solution.
[0036] In Comparative Example 3, toluene diisocyanate was used as a crosslinking agent for cyclodextrin. Due to the lack of carboxyl functional groups on it, it could not chemically couple with boron aminodoped iron oxide, which reduced the catalytic efficiency of the catalyst and thus led to an increase in bisphenol A residue.
