Description

A METHOD FOR PREPARING A COMPOSITE PHOTOCATALYST BY USING TITANIUM DIOXIDE TO ADHERE TO RED BRICK GRANULES FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention pertains to the field of inorganic material preparation technology, and in
particular relates to a method for preparing a composite photocatalyst by using titanium dioxide to adhere
to red brick granules.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Red brick granules are the granular construction waste generated by crushing and screening red
bricks. In China, 70% of the construction waste is red bricks and the amount of the construction waste is
nearly 1.5 billion tons in one year (2014). It means that nearly 1.05 billion tons of red brick granules are
generated every year. If such a large amount of construction waste bricks are improperly disposed of, they
will not only encroach on precious land resources (every 10,000 tons of construction waste occupy about
1 mu of land to backfill), but also greatly pollute the local water sources. It does great harm to human
health and the sustainable development of society. However, the current utilization efficiency and
utilization level of the construction waste red bricks are very low. On the one hand, the added value of red
bricks utilization is quite low; on the other hand, the cost of red bricks utilization is high. In fact, if
reusing construction waste bricks to make new red bricks, the cost is even higher than ordinary red bricks
on the market. Therefore, in order to reuse the waste red bricks on a large scale, it is necessary to
effectively increase the added value of the waste red brick products.
[0003] At the same time, nitrogen oxides are important component of air pollution. The nitrogen oxides
come from the use of mineral fuel and vehicle emission. They mainly includ nitric oxide and nitrogen
dioxide. These nitrogen oxides cause many notorious negative effects, such as Ozone pollution, acid rain,
global warming, human respiratory diseases and so on. Therefore, people try to use photocatalysts to
remove nitrogen oxides. Although there are many kinds of photocatalysts, titanium dioxide has been
proved to be better and is widely used because of its stable chemical property. The nanosized-phase
titanium dioxide has been proved to have extremely high catalytic activity because of its large specific surface area. Therefore, the nanosized-phase titanium dioxide has been widely studied as a photocatalyst to alleviate urban pollution, especially nitrogen oxide pollution. However, the nanosized-phase titanium dioxide is too small, which severely limits its application scope and effectiveness.
[0004] Therefore, if the nanosized-phase titanium dioxide adheres to the surface of the red brick granules, the porous structure of red brick granules can fix the titanium dioxide so that the loss rate of the
catalyst can be effectively reduced. The strong adsorption and large specific surface area of the red brick
granules can effectively increase the contact area between the photocatalyst and the nitrogen oxide
compound pollutants and adsorb more organic pollutants on the surface. Then, the pollutants can be
degraded into non-polluting small molecules through photocatalysis and finally removed by rain. At
present, it has been reported that there is a chemical self-assembly technology to prepare a composite
photocatalyst with the nanosized titanium dioxide adhering to red brick granules. The present invention
uses a sol-gel method to prepare such composite photocatalyst.
SUMMARY OF INVENTION
[0005] The present invention provides a method to prepare a composite photocatalyst by using titanium dioxide to adhere to red brick granules.
[0006] The technical aspect of the present invention is as follows:
[0007] A method for preparing a composite photocatalyst by using titanium dioxide to adhere to red brick granules, comprises the following steps:
(1) Dissolving nanosized titanium dioxide P25 into water to get the solution, and then stirring the
solution under the action of ultrasonic oscillation to obtain a relatively stable titanium dioxide sol,
wherein the proportion of the nanosized titanium dioxide is 1%;
(2) Stirring the stable sol and adding the red brick granules with pure surfaces into the sol slowly at the
same time to enable the red brick granules to contact the titanium dioxide sol sufficiently so as to obtain a
mixture A;
(3) Aging the mixture A for 24 hours to enable the red brick granules in the sol to absorb the nanosized
titanium dioxide sufficiently;
(4) Washing, drying, and heating the mixture A to 500-800 °C, thereby obtaining the composite
photocatalyst with the titanium dioxide adhering to the red brick granules.
[00081 As further defined, the mass ratio of the red brick granules to the sol in the step(2) is 0.8:1.
[0009] As further defined, the way of dying in the step(4) can be using the ordinary oven or vacuum
dryer.
[0010] As further defined, the grading of the red brick granules adding into the sol in the step(2) is
.6-1 .18mm orl .18-2 .36mm.
[0011] The present invention has the following advantages: The present invention use Degussa P25 as
catalyst and red brick granules as the carrier. The size of the composite photocatalyst is about
.6-2 .36mm. The nanosized titanium dioxide distributes evenly in the surface of the red brick granules.
This method can not only improve the added value of the waste red brick granules but can also solve the
problem of dispose the waste red bricks. Meanwhile, the porousness and strong adsorption capacity of the
red brick granules make the photocatalytic degradation ability of photocatalyst more stronger. In
particular, the source of raw materials of the invention is easy to find, among which the construction
waste red brick granules can be obtained from the specialized building resource utilization factory and the
nanosized titanium dioxide can be easily purchased in the market. The method mentioned in the present
invention costs low and manufacture easily.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ILLUSTRATED EMBODIMENTS
[00121 The technical solution and implementation of the present invention will be described in detail
hereafter with reference to accompanying examples, but the present invention is not limited to the
embodiments described hereafter.
[0013] The determination of the degradation efficiency of nitrogen oxides by using photocatalysts
follows a specific calculation formula:
'f r[~ 0[Njd 0 22.4 (t+60)x A x1000 (t+60)xAx1000
[0014] Herein, 0 represents the catalytic efficiency, that is, the degradation rate of nitrogen oxides
(pmol/hm 2); N represents the amount of nitrogen oxides (the sum of nitric oxide and nitrogen dioxide)
degraded by the test sample; [NOx]0 represents the concentration of nitrogen oxides entered (ppm); [NOx]
represents the discharge concentration of nitrogen oxides excreted (ppm); t represents the time for the
catalytic reaction (min); f represents the gas flow rate (L/min) in the standard state (0°C, 1.013kPa) ; A
represents the area of the sample involved in the reaction (mxm).
[00151 Taking nitrogen oxide (NO+NO2) as the target pollutant, the degradation efficiency is measured
by the nitrogen oxide degradation efficiency tester. First, passing standard nitric oxide gas at one end of
the gas inlet of the tester and passing zero-grade air at the other end. The source of nitric oxide is a
compressed air tank using nitrogen as the balance gas. The humidity in the tester can be controlled by
passing zero-grade air through a water bath. In this test, the humidity is controlled to 10%. In addition, the
initial concentration of the nitric oxide in the tester is controlled at 1000 ppb, and the flow rate is
controlled at 6L per minute by a flow rate controller. After about half an hour, the concentration of the
nitric oxide in the tester reaches equilibrium. At this time, turning on a ultraviolet lamp above the tester to
activate the composite photocatalyst in order to begin the photocatalytic reaction. During the reaction, a
nitric oxide analyzer measures the concentration of nitric oxide in the tester. After one hour, turning off
the ultraviolet lamp above the tester to end the photocatalytic reaction, but still passing the zero-grade air
for half an hour. Then, the computer connecting to the tester derives data. Based on the data, the nitrogen
oxides degradation efficiency is calculated through the calculation formula.
