Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of environmental functional materials and pollution remediation technology, and in particular to a modified CaFe-LDH composite material and its application in the removal of heavy metal Cd. 2+ With Cr 6+ Applications in [the field]. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of the metallurgical, electroplating, leather, and battery manufacturing industries, the discharge of wastewater and solid waste containing Cd2+ and Cr6+ continues to increase. Cd2+ can accumulate in crops and the human body, causing diseases such as Itai-itai disease; Cr6+ has strong oxidizing and carcinogenic properties. Traditional treatment methods for Cd2+ and Cr6+ include chemical precipitation, ion exchange, membrane separation, and electrochemical reduction, but these methods generally suffer from high energy consumption, excessive sludge production, and significant secondary pollution, and are insufficient to address Cd2+ / Cr6+ complex pollution systems.
[0003] In recent years, layered hydrogen hydroxides (LDHs) have been widely studied due to their tunable layers and strong anion exchange capacity. Typical MgAl-LDH and ZnFe-LDH can achieve removal rates of over 90% for anionic pollutants (such as PO43- and CrO42-), but their adsorption capacity for cationic Cd2+ is usually less than 80 mg / g. Fe3+-containing LDHs have electron transfer potential and can reduce Cr6+ to Cr3+, but the electron transfer efficiency is limited by pH and the type of anions in the interlayer, resulting in poor reduction performance. In addition, most existing LDHs are prepared by a single-step co-precipitation method, which suffers from a narrow pH window (9.5±0.5), short aging time (<12 h), poor pore structure, and poor stability, leading to poor adsorption capacity, reduction capacity, and cycle stability. Although ion exchange methods can improve the interlayer environment, they often use CO32- or NO3- anions, which have limited controllability and cannot synergize the adsorption-reduction process, thus failing to achieve effective removal of Cd2+ / Cr6+ complex pollution systems.
[0004] In summary, there is an urgent need to provide a novel LDH material with stable structure that can simultaneously achieve Cd2+ adsorption and Cr6+ reduction, in order to overcome the shortcomings such as insufficient adsorption capacity, selectivity and cycle stability.

[0075] CaFe-TMB prepared in Example 1 2- -LDH adsorption conforms to the Langmuir model for Cd. 2+ The monolayer adsorption capacity is 289.6 mg / g, for Cr 6+ The monolayer adsorption capacity is 245.78 mg / g. The corresponding adsorption isotherm fitting is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, (a) is CaFe-TMB 2- -LDH for Cd 2+ The adsorption isotherm fitting results are shown in (b) for CaFe-TMB. 2- -LDH on Cr 6+ The fitting of the adsorption isotherm.
[0076] CaFe-TMB prepared in Example 1 before and after the adsorption reaction 2- -LDH was used for XPS testing, and the results were as follows: Figure 8 As shown, (a) is the XPS full spectrum, (b) is the Mo 3d energy spectrum, (c) is the S 2p energy spectrum, and (d) is the Cr 2p energy spectrum. It can be seen that before the adsorption reaction, CaFe-TMB... 2- -LDH has an S / Mo ratio of 4.14, compared to Mo3S. 13 2− The similar ratios indicate that CaFe-TMB 2- -LDH material was successfully synthesized. In Mo 3d, the peaks with binding energies at 228.7 and 232.2 eV were attributed to Mo 3d5 / 2 and Mo 3d3 / 2, respectively, indicating the presence of Mo. 4+ The S 2p spectrum was deconvolved into two bimodal peaks, with one at 165.0 eV and the other at 163.5 eV belonging to S 2p1 / 2 and S 2p3 / 2, respectively, originating from the top S 2p1 / 2 and S 2p3 / 2. 2− and bridging S2 2− The other bimodality, S 2p1 / 2 (159.1 eV) and S 2p3 / 2 (157.6 eV), is attributed to the terminal S2. 2− Adsorption of Cd 2+ Subsequently, the Mo element in the Mo 3d spectrum did not interact with Cd. 2+A valence state change reaction occurs; the peaks at 412.9 and 406.1 eV in the Cd 3d spectrum correspond to Cd 3d3 / 2 and Cd 3d5 / 2, respectively. The characteristic peak of S 2s (226.3 eV) appears after the reaction, indicating the formation of Cd-S precipitate. The double shift peaks of S 2p at 158.1 and 156.7 eV emphasize the formation of S. 2− It exists in the form of CdS. The S 2p binding energy is lower than that of CaFe-TMB. 2- The corresponding value of -LDH is due to Cd 2+ With Mo3S 13 2− Coordination between them. Adsorption of Cr 6+ Subsequently, weakened doublets at 232.0 and 229.3 eV were observed for Mo(IV)3d3 / 2 and Mo(IV)3d5 / 2, while strong doublets at 235.2 and 232.4 eV, attributable to Mo3d, were observed for Mo(VI)3d3 / 2 and Mo(VI)3d5 / 2. Partial conversion of Mo(IV) to Mo(VI) reflects the CaFe-TMB... 2- A significant oxidation process of Mo(IV) is observed during the adsorption of Cr(VI) by -LDH. Signal peaks of 573.6 eV and 583.9 eV are observed in the Cr 2p spectrum, corresponding to Cr 2p2 / 3 and Cr 2p1 / 2, which typically originate from Cr(III). These indicate a redox reaction between Mo(IV) and Cr(VI). In the S 2p spectrum, the binding energy peak at 168.0 eV indicates that the sulfide functional groups are oxidized to SO42-. 2− The decrease in the binding energy of S 2p (163.5 eV) indicates that Cr(III) forms a coordinate bond with S, and S 2− The weakening of the characteristic peak indicates that S 2− Oxidized to SO4 2− With Mo(IV) and S 2− Reduce Cr(VI) to Cr(III), S 2− Partially oxidized to SO4 2− Mo(IV) is oxidized to Mo(VI), and Cr-S coordination further captures the generated Cr(III).
[0077] (3) Effect of different dosages on adsorption performance At 100 mg / L Cd 2+ With 100 mg / L Cr 6+ Different amounts of CaFe-TMB prepared in Example 1 were added to the mixed solution. 2- After adjusting the pH to 7 with -LDH, the solution was shaken at 200 rpm for 4 h at room temperature (25 ℃). Afterward, the remaining Cd in the solution was determined by ICP-MS.2+ and Cr 6+ The concentration was determined, and the removal rate was calculated. The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0078] Table 2
[0079] As shown in Table 2, Cd 2+ and Cr 6+ The removal rates all increased with increasing dosage, indicating that the dosage is a crucial factor affecting the removal efficiency. This is because a higher dosage provides more surface-active sites and interlayer exchange sites, enhancing the removal of Cd. 2+ Complexation / fixation and Cr 6+ The system exhibits exchange, reduction, and stabilization effects. However, when the dosage is further increased from 1.0 g / L, the increase in removal rate decreases, indicating that the system gradually approaches adsorption-reaction equilibrium.
[0080] (4) Effect of pH on removal performance At 100 mg / L Cd 2+ With 100 mg / L Cr 6+ The CaFe-TMB prepared in Example 1 was added to the mixed solution. 2- -LDH 1 g / L was added, and the pH of the solution was adjusted to 5, 7, or 9 respectively. The solution was then shaken at 200 rpm for 4 h at room temperature (25 ℃). After the reaction, the remaining Cd in the solution was determined by ICP-MS. 2+ and Cr 6+ The concentration was determined, and the removal rate was calculated. The results are shown in Table 3.
[0081] Table 3
[0082] As shown in Table 3, Cd 2+ The fixation of Cr generally prefers a neutral to slightly alkaline environment because this is conducive to surface deprotonation, hydroxyl complexation, and Cd(OH)₂ formation. 6+ The reduction of HCrO4 is often easier to carry out in slightly acidic to neutral conditions because HCrO4 - / Cr2O7 2- It is easier to reduce, and the reduction process is often accompanied by H + Participation. Under the same bulk pH conditions, CaFe-TMB 2- -LDH for Cd 2+ Fixation and Cr 6+ Reduction and fixation can occur simultaneously, but their optimal pH ranges may not be entirely the same. This may be attributed to the presence of different functional sites on the material surface: Cd 2+ It is mainly fixed through lamellar substitution, surface complexation, and precipitation, while Cr6+ The two types of pollutants can be synergistically removed in the same system mainly through anion exchange and Mo-S site-mediated reduction and fixation.
[0083] (5) Cyclic performance test At 100 mg / L Cd 2+ With 100 mg / L Cr 6+ The CaFe-TMB prepared in Example 1 was added to the mixed solution. 2- -LDH 2 g / L, after adjusting pH=7, the material was shaken at 200 rpm at room temperature (25 ℃) until adsorption equilibrium was reached, and then centrifuged to recover the material. Desorption was performed using a mixed regeneration solution of 0.05 mol / L EDTA-2Na and 0.1 mol / L NaNO3 for 6 h (50 mL of the mixed regeneration solution was added for every 0.10 g of adsorbed material for desorption). The material was then washed with deionized water until neutral and dried at 60 ℃ before entering the next cycle. Results showed that CaFe-TMB... 2- -LDH on Cd in cycles 1 through 5 2+ The removal rate can be gradually reduced from 99.2% to 90.2%, and the removal rate of Cr can be reduced from 99.2% to 90.2%. 6+ The removal rate can be reduced from 98.0% to 84.6%, while still maintaining a high overall removal efficiency, indicating that the material has good recycling potential. Among them, Cr... 6+ The removal rate decreased slightly more significantly, mainly because some of the Mo-S active sites were consumed during the reduction process, while Cd... 2+ A high removal level can still be maintained through interlayer exchange, surface complexation, and precipitation fixation.
[0084] Test Example 4 Remediation performance and long-term stability of contaminated soil Experimental conditions: Soil samples (total Cd content 3.26 mg / kg, total Cr content 63.97 mg / kg) were collected from a contaminated electroplating area. After adjusting the moisture content to 60%, 1 wt% of the dry weight of the soil samples prepared in each example or comparative example were applied. After incubation at 25 ℃ for 30 days, Cd content was determined by ICP-MS. 2+ and Cr 6+ The residual content.
[0085] The results showed that the CaFe-TMB prepared in Example 1 was applied 2- Cr in the soil of the LDH experimental group 6+ The concentration of Cr in the soil decreased by 83.5%; the concentration of bioavailable Cd (the form that can be directly absorbed and utilized by organisms) decreased by 64.4%. In contrast, after applying CaFe-S-LDH, the concentration of Cr in the soil decreased by 83.5%. 6+The concentration of Cd decreased by 62.0%, and the effective Cd decreased by 39.6%; the CaFe-NO3 prepared in Comparative Example 1 was applied. - After -LDH, Cr in the soil 6+ The concentration of bioavailable Cd decreased by 47.8%; bioavailable Cd decreased by 28.6%. BCR speciation analysis indicated that CaFe-TMB... 2- After CaFe-S-LDH treatment, the extractable form of highly active acids in Cd and Cr was significantly reduced and transformed into a more stable residual form, with the proportions of residual Cd and Cr increasing by approximately 28% and 18%, respectively; while after CaFe-S-LDH treatment, the proportions of residual Cd and Cr increased by approximately 25% and 9%, respectively.
[0086] Mechanism Explanation: CaFe-TMB 2- The Mo-S active component introduced into the LDH interlayer can reduce Cr 6+ Reduced to Cr 3+ Furthermore, Cr-S coordination and interlayer immobilization further inhibit its re-release; simultaneously, hydroxyl and Ca sites on the surface of the LDH laminations can immobilize Cd through complexation, isomorphic substitution, and precipitation. 2+ In contrast, although CaFe-S-LDH possesses certain sulfur-containing coordination sites, it does not significantly affect Cd. 2+ and Cr 6+ It also has a certain fixing effect, but due to the lack of Mo-S synergistic active centers, its effect on Cr is limited. 6+ Its deep reduction ability and synergistic remediation ability for Cd / Cr dual pollution are both weaker than CaFe-TMB. 2- -LDH. Therefore, CaFe-TMB 2- -LDH can more effectively achieve long-term in-situ remediation of actual Cd / Cr contaminated soils.
