Technical field
The present invention relates to capacitive deionization technical field, be specifically related to a kind of Graphene melamine foams composite membrane capacitive deionization electrode and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Along with the high speed development of World Economics and industry, facing mankind the lot of challenges of energy scarcity and environmental pollution.Especially water resources crisis, has badly influenced the development of a lot of country.And water is not replaceable natural resources and strategic resources, it it is one of the mainstay of society's sustainable development.In view of sea water reserves are abnormal abundant, desalination technology development potentiality is very big.From the sea water accounting for the total moisture storage capacity in the world 96%, how to obtain one of cheap fresh water important channel becoming solution shortage of fresh water.Capacitive deionization (Capacitivedeionization, CDI), is a kind of electro-adsorption desalting technology based on electrochemical double-layer capacitor theory.Its basic thought is that under the effect of electrostatic field, in solution, conductance ion can be forced to move to the electrode place with opposite charges by applying electrostatic field at porous adsorption electrode two ends, thus reaching to remove the purpose of conductance ion in solution.CDI technology compensate for the defect of traditional desalting techniques, make low energy consumption, high efficiency, environmental protection desalting technology more and more nearer towards industrialization direction.It addition, under identical working condition, the desalting efficiency of membrane capacitance deionization (MCDI) is higher than corresponding CDI device.MCDI namely wherein one piece or two cube electrode sheet surfaces cover last layer ion exchange membrane, make counter ion to pass through, thus effectively suppressing the common-ion effect of electrode surface.Research shows, the desalting efficiency of MCDI improves about 50% (Water.Res., 2008,42,4923-4928) than CDI.
Electrode material serves very important central role in the work process of CDI device, and its property relationship is to the quality of desalination effect.Therefore the core of capacitive deionization technology and it is crucial that choosing to high performance electrode material.Generally, porous carbon material is various informative, stable performance, environmental friendliness, with low cost, simple to operate, and these features meet the requirement of capacitive deionization electrode all very much.And material with carbon element has high-specific surface area and excellent electrical conductance, it may be said that be optimum electrode material.Having developed conventional material with carbon element includes activated carbon, carbon fiber, carbon aerogels, CNT and Graphene etc. at present.
Compared with conventional porous carbon electrode, the high-specific surface area of Graphene, high porosity, high conductivity and the advantage such as good thermal conductivity and mechanical strength, make Graphene obtain good application prospect and wide potentiality in CDI technology.In general, Graphene, in CDI test experiments, generally adopts graphene oxide reducing process to prepare Graphene raw material.The Graphene yield prepared by this method is high, but remaining surface functional group still compares many, it is most important that easily reuniting, the number of plies is more.Zhang et al. is by polystyrene spheres (J.Mater.Chem.A, 2013,1,11778-11789), CNT (J.Mater.Chem., 2012,22,14696-14704), mesoporous carbon (Nanoscale, 2012,4,5440-5446) etc. various carbon materials inserts in Graphene as " sept ", not only inhibit the reunion of Graphene, more the excellent properties of other material with carbon elements is introduced, enable Graphene to give full play to self high-ratio surface and high conductivity, thus obtaining the higher efficiency that desalts.The present invention adopts melamine foams as support, effectively prevents the reunion of graphene film.And one layer of anion exchange membrane is covered on grapheme material surface, make the wettability of electrode be greatly improved.Significantly improve the desalting ability of graphene combination electrode.
