Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of water treatment technology, specifically relating to a fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material, its preparation method, and its application in the remediation of water bodies polluted by perfluorinated / polyfluoroalkyl compounds. Background Technology

[0002] Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are aliphatic organofluorine compounds in which hydrogen atoms in the molecular structure are partially or completely replaced by fluorine. All carbon atoms in the carbon chain of PFAS are sp. 3 The hybridized CF bonds formed by these compounds have high bond energies, thus PFAS exhibit high thermal stability and chemical inertness. They are widely used in the textile, industrial, and equipment sectors as surfactants, flame retardants, fluororubbers, and textile finishing agents, and are also frequently added to personal care products. As typical PFAS, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) possess certain carcinogenic, neurotoxic, reproductive, and genotoxic properties. They can accumulate through the food chain, posing a threat to human health.

[0003] With the development of the industrial economy and the impact of human activities, environmental pollutants generally exist in the form of complex pollution. Currently, PFAS have been detected in the atmosphere, soil, surface water, groundwater, human tissues, and animal and plant bodies worldwide. A recent study shows that PFAS are prevalent in surface water and groundwater globally, existing in complex pollution forms.

[0004] Currently, the main technologies used to treat PFAS-contaminated water include adsorption, photocatalysis, nanofiltration, advanced reduction, and electrolysis. Adsorption is the most commonly used method due to its economic efficiency and ease of operation. Hydrothermal carbon and other carbon-based materials have diverse structures and various excellent properties, making them good adsorbents for treating PFAS pollution. However, in practical applications, they suffer from drawbacks such as slow adsorption rates and limited adsorption capacity. Summary of the Invention

The fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material provided by this invention can achieve simultaneous and efficient removal of complex pollutants such as PFOA and PFOS formed by PFAS in polluted water bodies. The preparation method of the fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material provided by this invention is simple and low in cost, and is widely applicable to the treatment of typical PFAS complex pollution in water bodies such as groundwater near fluoride plants.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: This invention provides a method for preparing fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon materials, comprising the following steps: A hydrothermal reaction is carried out on an aqueous solution of a carbohydrate to obtain a hydrothermal solid product; the hydrothermal solid product is then subjected to a first calcination in a protective gas atmosphere to obtain a preliminary product, hydrothermal carbon. The carbohydrate includes one or more of glucose, fructose, xylose, cellulose, chitosan, and chitin. The preliminary product hydrothermal carbon was mixed with an inorganic strong alkali and then subjected to a second calcination in a protective gas atmosphere to obtain activated hydrothermal carbon. The activated hydrothermal carbon and fluoride are mixed and then subjected to a third calcination in a protective gas atmosphere to obtain a fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material. The fluoride includes one or more of ammonium fluoride, potassium fluoride, and sodium fluoride.

[0007] Preferably, the mass ratio of the activated hydrothermal carbon to the fluoride is 1:(0.1~15); the third calcination temperature is 950~1100℃ and the time is 1~3 h.

[0010] This invention provides a fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material prepared by the preparation method described in the above technical solution.

[0011] This invention provides the application of the fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material described above in the remediation of water bodies polluted by perfluorinated / polyfluoroalkyl compounds.

[0012] Preferably, the water bodies polluted by perfluorinated / polyfluoroalkyl compounds include surface water or groundwater; the water bodies polluted by perfluorinated / polyfluoroalkyl compounds are water bodies polluted by a combination of perfluorinated / polyfluoroalkyl compounds.

[0013] Preferably, the perfluoro / polyfluoroalkyl compound contaminating the water includes perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS).

[0014] Preferably, in the water body polluted by the perfluorinated / polyfluoroalkyl compound complex: the concentration of perfluorooctanoic acid is 0.1~5 mg / L, and the concentration of perfluorooctane sulfonic acid is 0.1~5 mg / L.

[0015] Preferably, the application includes: mixing the fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material with water polluted by perfluorinated / polyfluoroalkyl compounds for adsorption reaction; the dosage of the fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material is 0.1~0.5 g / L, and the adsorption reaction time is 2~360 min.

[0016] This invention provides a method for preparing fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material, comprising the following steps: reacting an aqueous solution of a carbohydrate with a hydrothermal reaction to obtain a hydrothermal solid product; calcining the hydrothermal solid product in a protective gas atmosphere to obtain a preliminary hydrothermal carbon product, wherein the carbohydrate includes one or more of glucose, fructose, xylose, cellulose, chitosan, and chitin; mixing the preliminary hydrothermal carbon product with an inorganic strong alkali and then calcining it in a protective gas atmosphere to obtain activated hydrothermal carbon; and mixing the activated hydrothermal carbon with a fluoride and then calcining it in a protective gas atmosphere to obtain a fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material, wherein the fluoride includes one or more of ammonium fluoride, potassium fluoride, and sodium fluoride.

(2) The rapid and efficient adsorption performance of the fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material prepared in this invention is mainly due to the strong dipole interaction between the CF chain of PFAS and the -F group on the material surface. This interaction creates a selective hydrophobic microenvironment that preferentially adsorbs PFAS, making it particularly suitable for the remediation of water bodies polluted by perfluorinated / polyfluoroalkyl compounds with complex water matrix characteristics. The results of the examples show that, in this invention, the performance of unfluorinated material AHC and fluorinated material in removing PFOA and PFOS was compared. The fluorinated material exhibited higher removal efficiency, indicating that the introduction of fluorine groups enhances the selectivity of PFAS.

It has broad application prospects in the remediation of surface water or groundwater polluted by PFAC complex pollution. Attached Figure Description

[0034] II. Application of Fluorine-Modified Hydrothermal Carbon Materials in the Efficient Treatment of Water Polluted by Perfluorinated / Polyfluoroalkyl Compounds: This embodiment also provides the application of the above-mentioned fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material in the efficient treatment of water bodies polluted by perfluorinated / polyfluorinated alkyl compounds.

The initial pH of the polluted water in this experiment was 6.2 ± 0.15. Add 4 mg of fluoride-modified hydrothermal carbon material (AHC-F5, AHC-F...). 10 AHC-F 15 ); Step two: After sealing, the borosilicate glass bottle was shielded from light with aluminum foil and placed in a constant-temperature shaker at 150 rpm and 25°C for 2 minutes and 2 hours.

Step 3: Centrifuge and collect the used adsorbent, then regenerate it in 10 mL of methanol (99.9%), shake at 150 rpm for 2 h, and then vacuum dry at 60 °C overnight; Step four involves using the regenerated material in the next round of PFOA / PFOS adsorption reaction, with the entire cycle repeated five times.

Figure 3 The results show that the fluorine-modified hydrothermal carbon material AHC-F5 can completely remove PFOA and PFOS in five cycles of experiments, demonstrating high stability.
