Description

Preparation method and application of uranium-supported metal-organic framework catalyst
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of inorganic nano materials and preparation thereof, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of a uranium-supported catalyst with a metal-organic framework.
Background
With the continuous increase of nuclear energy demand, a great amount of uranium-containing nuclear waste liquid is generated in the processes of nuclear fuel production, nuclear power plant operation, nuclear facility retirement and the like. In nuclear waste liquid, uranium has strong radioactivity, long half-life period and large biological and chemical toxicity, is easy to migrate to a biosphere along with surface water and underground water, and causes great harm to ecological environment and normal life activities of human beings. At present, landfill is a main treatment method for uranium treatment, but the treatment method not only has potential safety hazards of landfill material decomposition, but also causes waste of a large amount of depleted uranium. How to effectively extract the depleted uranium in the nuclear waste liquid and realize the reuse of the depleted uranium is of great importance.
The chemical property of uranium element is very special, and the energy of 6d orbit is similar to that of 5f orbit, so that unique 6d-5f hybridization phenomenon is formed. This phenomenon causes the valence state of uranium ions to vary from +3 to +6, and the coordination sphere, similar to a transition metal, to be converted. During the redox process, this unique dynamic coordination change tends to change the reaction path, with a significant impact on the reaction energy barrier. In addition, uranium is similar to lanthanide metals in that its unique 5f orbital electron forms an electrophilic complex with small molecules, and its large ionic radius makes it possible to have a unique coordination environment. For example, the f-orbitals of uranium and aromatic hydrocarbons can form delta feedback bonds similar to pi feedback bonds of transition metals and aromatic hydrocarbons. In summary, uranium and its complexes are highly reactive towards substrates that would normally be inert (e.g., nitrogen, small organic molecules, etc.), and are potential catalysts for inert small molecule conversion. Therefore, the catalyst for preparing the depleted uranium in the nuclear waste liquid into the micromolecular catalytic conversion by a physicochemical means is a feasible scheme for realizing the recycling of the depleted uranium.
As early as the early 20 th century, the nobel chemical prize acquirer habai found that uranium could promote the activation of inert n≡n in the catalytic synthesis of ammonia, and thus the catalytic synthesis of ammonia was even more reactive than the usual iron-based catalyst. In the electrolytic water reaction, uranium complexes tend to have cyclic changes of +3 and +4, where U (III) can catalyze H 2 And the cleavage reaction of O generates U (IV) -OH intermediate species, and the U (IV) -OH can be dissociated into U (III) and OH-under the action of electrons, so that the hydrogen evolution reaction of electrolyzed water is promoted. In 2015, the university of Qinghai Wang Xun professor team controllably prepared heterogeneous uranium oxide nanoparticles of various morphologies, which found 10% Ce doped UO 2 The nano-particles can catalyze the hydrogen evolution reaction of electrolyzed water under alkaline conditions. Furthermore, uranium based compounds also exhibit unique catalytic properties in oxidation reactions.
In recent years, in small molecule catalytic reactions, metal monoatomic catalysts have become ideal choices for activating inert small molecules due to ultra-high atom utilization and unsaturated coordination environments. In 2011, university of Dalian chemical and physical institute Zhang Tao academy and university of Qinghai Li Juan taught to develop a catalyst for oxidation of CO with excellent performancePt of (2) 1 /FeO x Catalysts, the concept of a single-atom catalyst is presented for the first time. After this, the monoatomic catalyst is reacted with CO 2 Reduction, N 2 The catalyst has excellent catalytic potential in small molecule catalytic reactions such as reduction, hydrogen evolution of electrolyzed water, oxygen evolution of electrolyzed water and the like. In the catalytic activation of inert small molecules, metal monoatomic catalysts have natural advantages in terms of activity and selectivity: on the one hand, the metal monoatomic catalyst has an active site with high atomic level dispersion, and an unsaturated coordination environment is arranged between the active site and the carrier, so that the catalytic activation of inert N (ident) N, C =O bonds is promoted; on the other hand, the monoatomic active site has high uniformity relative to the nanoparticle system, and the coordination environment has great influence on the electronic structure, so that the monoatomic active site is single and adjustable in catalytic selectivity.
Although development of uranium-based catalysts has been partially studied and reported at present, preparation and catalytic application exploration of single-atom uranium catalysts are extremely rare, and the following bottleneck problems mainly exist: there is a lack of methods for preparing high purity monatomic uranium catalysts in high yield from uranium-containing nuclear waste solutions. In nuclear waste, uranium is generally present in the form of soluble +6 valent uranyl ions (U (VI)). In the process of reducing and enriching U (VI) into a carrier, uranium is extremely easy to bond with oxygen to form a deposited oxide. The formation of isolated and dispersed uranium monoatoms (distinct from uranium oxides) requires a radical or coordination structure of uranium limited uranium by the support and controls the rate of the reduction reaction so that the reaction tends to form multiple monoatomic uranium sites without forming crystalline oxides.

the morphology of U-SAs/NC was further characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The results show that the prepared U-SAs/NC maintains the original polyhedral shape after annealing treatmentIn the shape of a tube, and no distinct nanoparticles were detected on the surface (U-SAs/NC or NC) (FIG. 1, FIG. 3, FIG. 4). The heavy atomic mass U atoms with atoms dispersed on the NC skeleton can be easily distinguished in an atomic resolution high angle annular dark field scanning transmission electron microscope (HAADF-STEM) image, where they are marked with white circles (fig. 2). The intensity profile along X-Y shows that the spacing between U atoms is at least 0.31nm, significantly greater than the effective diameter (R U =0.277 nm), which further demonstrates the atomic-scale dispersion of U species (fig. 5). In addition, the X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) pattern of U-SAs/NC was almost identical to that of the original MOF-derived N-C backbone, further confirming the absence of a U-containing phase (FIG. 6). Furthermore, the corresponding HAADF energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) element mapping reveals a uniform distribution of C, N, O and U across the architecture (fig. 7).
Furthermore, the U content of the load in U-SAs/NC is as high as 1.8wt% based on inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) results.
Electrochemical measurement:
with respect to CO 2 Electrochemical experiments of reduction reaction performance were all performed on a CHI760E electrochemical analyzer using a typical three-electrode electrochemical cell with a platinum wire electrode as a counter electrode and saturated Ag/AgCl as a reference electrode, and a metal-organic framework-supported uranium catalyst (i.e., the catalyst prepared in example 1, example 2, comparative example 1 or comparative example 2) was prepared as a working electrode (specifically, catalyst powder was dispersed in 500 μl of ethanol, 500 μl of deionized water and 20 μl of Nafion solution (5 wt%, sigma-Aldrich), then sonicated for 30 minutes, and then uniformly distributed catalyst ink was drop-cast on carbon fiber paper with polyimide film attached on the back, and dried at 50 ℃ to obtain the working electrode). All potentials in the figure are converted to Reversible Hydrogen Electrodes (RHE), which are converted to:
E(vs.RHE)=E(vs.Ag/AgCl)+0.197V+0.0592×pH;
in a flow cell, electrochemical measurements are performed in a three electrode system of an electrochemical station (AUT 50783). The prepared cathode (working electrode made of uranium catalyst supported by metal organic framework), nafion 115 proton exchange membrane and foam nickel were placed and passed through PTFE gasketClamped together. Here, the nickel foam is used as an anode for the oxygen evolution reaction in the flow cell, since nickel is a good oxygen evolution reaction catalyst in alkaline environments. 30mL of electrolyte (1M KOH aqueous solution) was introduced into the anode chamber between the anode and the membrane, and into the cathode chamber between the membrane and the cathode, respectively. Electrolyte in the cathode and anode was circulated by two pumps at a rate of 10 mL/min. At the same time, CO 2 Gas (99.99%) was continuously supplied to the gas chamber located at the back of the cathode at a rate of 20 mL/min. Through the pores of the cathode, the gas may diffuse to the interface between the cathode and the electrolyte. The performance of the cathode was evaluated by performing constant current electrolysis. All potentials were measured against an Ag/AgCl reference electrode (3M KCl). At each reaction potential, the product gas and CO were collected within 1200 seconds after 600 seconds of reaction 2 Is a mixture of (a) and (b). The gas composition analysis was performed next by GC. The separated gas product is passed through a thermal conductivity detector (for H 2 ) And flame ionization detectors (for CO) for analysis. The product is quantified using a conversion factor derived from a standard calibration gas.
CO and H 2 Faraday efficiency (f.e.) can be calculated as:

where F is faraday constant, n=2 is the number of electrons participating in the electrode reaction, S is the integrated area of the CO peak in the GC spectrum, S 0 Is a conversion factor determined by standard sample calibration GC, v=20 mL/min is CO 2 Inflow rate, t, is the time required to collect the gas and Q is the total charge obtained from the j-t curve.
FIG. 8 shows geometric current densities at NC, U-NP/NC, and U-SAs/NC. As shown in FIG. 8, the prepared U-SAs/NC exhibited a higher geometric current density than the U-NP/NC and NC catalysts, as verified by Linear Sweep Voltammetry (LSV) (FIG. 9). In particular, the geometric current density of the U-SAs/NC catalyst reaches 200mA/cm at an overpotential of-1.69V vs RHE 2 1.3 times and 1.6 times that of the U-NP/NC and NC catalysts, respectively. FIG. 10 shows the geometry of the U-NP/NC, U-SAs/NC, and U-SAs/NC-1Flow density U-SAs/NC-1 produced exhibits a higher geometric current density than U-SAs/NC catalyst.
For the catalyst of the invention, H 2 And CO are the main reaction products, which are quantified by gas chromatography analysis. FIGS. 11 and 12 show the Faraday Efficiency (FE) of the catalyst on CO product as a function of total current applied at 150mA/cm 2 U-SAs/NC showed a maximum of 95% for CO, about 1.8 times higher than U-NP/NC and about 11.9 times higher than NC catalyst. Furthermore, U-SAs/NC is controlled in a current window (50 to 150mA/cm 2 ) In which the Faraday efficiencies are all over 90% and U-SAs/NC-1 is higher than U-SAs/NC (FIG. 12); in addition, the prepared U-SAs/NC showed excellent durability in a 10-hour potentiostatic test, the current density decay was less than 4%, and the FE of CO was maintained at 90% or more at-0.8 Vvs RHE, further confirming that U-SAs/NC had better durability (FIG. 13).
To further understand CO 2 The key intermediate species in the electroreduction process were then fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (SR-FTIR) using synchrotron radiation under operating conditions (fig. 14). Monodentate carbonate groups (m-CO) compared to open circuit voltage 3 2- ) Appear at 1520cm after the voltage is applied -1 Indicating more CO as the applied voltage decreases 2 The molecules adsorb on the catalyst surface.

Thus, the SR-FTIR results demonstrate the dynamic adsorption and desorption processes of oxygen-containing intermediates at well-defined U monoatomic active sites.
