Background
Heavy metal means a density of greater than 4.5m2The metal element per gram, such as Cu, Ag, Cr, Pb, etc. Heavy metal ions are discharged into water mainly through chemical production, chemical fertilizers and pesticides, domestic wastewater, mine exploitation and the like, and when the concentration of the heavy metal ions in the water exceeds the self-purification capacity of the water body, the heavy metal pollution of the water body is caused. With the rapid development of industry and agriculture, a large amount of heavy metal wastewater is discharged, and heavy metal pollution becomes one of the biggest hazards of environmental pollution. Heavy metals are not easily degraded under natural conditions, and are enriched in human bodies through food chains, so that the domestic heavy metal water pollution events are frequent in the last decade, and the problem of heavy metal pollution is not easy to solve. At present, the pollution to heavy metals is mainly carried out by chemical methods, such as a chemical precipitation method and an oxidation-reduction method; biological methods such as phytoremediation, biosorption and bioflocculation; physical methods such as separation, ion exchange and adsorption. The adsorption method has the advantages of rich source of adsorbent, low cost, large adsorption capacity, high treatment efficiency, and simple processEasy operation, no secondary pollution and the like, and is widely applied to the treatment of heavy metal ion wastewater. Conventional adsorbents have some deficiencies in selectivity and recycling. The currently studied adsorbents try to combine a plurality of adsorption materials by a physical doping or chemical connection method, and utilize the structural advantages of each material to prepare the adsorption material with high adsorption capacity, strong adaptability and convenient recycling.
The hydrogel is a solid material formed by mutually intertwining hydrophilic polymers through physical or chemical crosslinking to form a three-dimensional network structure, and water is used as a dispersion medium to fill the pores of the whole network structure. The hydrogel has unique advantages in the aspect of removing heavy metals as a high polymer material with a three-dimensional network structure. The intelligent hydrogel has responsiveness to external stimuli (such as temperature, pH, ionic strength, electric field strength and the like), so that the adsorption process of the hydrogel on heavy metal ions can be regulated and controlled by changing the external environment by using the intelligent hydrogel as an adsorbent, or the heavy metal ions are identified according to the special responsiveness of the hydrogel.
The natural polymer hydrogel has rich sources, low price and good biocompatibility, is widely applied to hydrogel preparation, but has poor stability, so the actual requirements of the hydrogel are often improved by blending or graft copolymerization of natural polymers and synthetic polymers and the like. However, most natural polymers are in a powder, block or film structure, and have low porosity and small specific surface area, and after grafting modification, the problems of low porosity, small specific surface area and the like still exist, so that the adsorption capacity of the natural polymers on heavy metal ions is low. How to improve the adsorption capacity of heavy metal ions becomes a key problem to be solved urgently.
