[0038] Working process:

[0039] A certain amount of acidic sodium chloride solution is introduced through the second pipe 23, and the amount of the acidic sodium chloride solution is controlled to prevent the solution inside the demercuration cylinder 31 from being higher than the height of the second pipe 23 and lower than the bottom of the adsorption membrane 35. The second electric three-way valve 28 is manually controlled to be opened, so that the second electric three-way valve 28 allows flue gas to be introduced. After the flue gas passes through the adsorption membrane 35, the material of the adsorption membrane 35 is CI-PANI@MWCNTs, and the adsorption membrane 35 can separate and enrich the gaseous elemental mercury in the flue gas.

When the waste liquid and mercuric sulfide are collected on the left side, the left side of the second electric three-way valve 28 is controlled to be closed and the right side is opened to discharge the flue gas into the right demercuration cylinder 31 to maintain overall continuity. It is also convenient for the left side to pass the sodium chloride solution again to regenerate the adsorption membrane 35, so that one is running and the other is recovering, giving enough time for the adsorption membrane 35 to regenerate and the mercury to recover.

[0040] The heavy metal adsorption membrane prepared by CI-PANI@MWCNTs material 35 realizes the separation and enrichment of gas phase mercury, and can remove highly volatile and insoluble Hg in flue gas. 0 .Cl - Doped protonated polyaniline-coated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Cl-PANI@MWCNTs) have excellent reusability, good water resistance and high thermal stability.
