SEPARATION AND PURIFICATION TECHNOLOGY(2024)
摘要
Selective dechlorination is the key to solving the pollution problem of saline wastewater and achieving resource recovery, which is a major challenge for existing treatment methods. The recent development of capacitive deionization (CDI) based on the Ag@carbon electrode exhibits highly selective Cl- removal; however, its industrialization still poses a significant challenge due to the agglomeration and subsequent falling of Ag nanoparticles in the electrochemical field. In this work, we proposed a new physical confinement strategy based on carbon nanocage that can suppress the migration and agglomeration behavior of Ag nanoparticles. Firstly, a controllable construction of porous carbon nanocages on the surface of Ag nanoparticles was realized by the Ag+/H2O2 synergistic oxidation -carbonization process, significantly inhibiting the migration and agglomeration of Ag nanoparticles in the Ag@carbon electrode. The Cl- removal capacity fluctuated around 110.0 mg & sdot;g- 1 in 100 CDI cycles, exhibiting an excellent stability. Meanwhile, the high Cl-/SO42- selectivity coefficient (89.0) promised the efficiently selective separation of Cl- ions from saline wastewater. In particular, the migration and agglomeration of Ag species in the carbon matrix was mainly attributed to the mutual attraction-recrystallization of Ag nanoparticles in the electrochemical field. Consequently, our study provides significant support for the industrial application of Ag@carbon electrodes and fundamentally solves the problem of saline wastewater pollution.
