Background
With the increasing demand of society for energy, the utilization of nuclear energy is also more and more emphasized in the daily life of human beings. A key issue today is how to safely and efficiently process nuclear waste generated from the nuclear fission of uranium fuel. Compared with solid radioactive wastes, the gaseous radioactive wastes have large fluidity and are easy to migrate along with the airflow, so the polluted area of the gaseous radioactive wastes is pollutedAnd the harm is stronger. Radioactive iodine has been a research hotspot for scientists because of its very long half-life (1.57 × 10)7Years) and can affect the human metabolic response and thus cause physical harm. Therefore, enrichment and storage of gaseous iodine in nuclear power plants has become the most important issue in radioactive waste gas treatment worldwide.
The solid phase adsorption method is the most commonly used method for enriching and storing radioactive gas iodine, and the currently adopted technology for capturing iodine vapor mainly uses zeolite molecular sieves and metal organic framework materials as iodine adsorbents. However, these solid adsorbents have their own drawbacks, such as lower adsorption capacity and poor thermochemical stability, which limit their further applications. Porous aromatic matrix materials are a recently developed class of highly crosslinked, nanoporous polymers. They have low framework density, continuous porosity and high thermochemical stability, so that the porous aromatic framework material has wide application prospects in the fields of gas adsorption, separation, heterogeneous catalysis and the like.
Carbazole is an important nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound, is relatively stable to heat, acid and alkali, has a rigid main chain and a conjugated electron-rich system, is beneficial to forming a permanent porous material, and has a nitrogen-containing structure which can enhance the interaction between an adsorbate and an adsorbent, so that the adsorption capacity of the carbazole on guest molecules is improved. The invention adopts 1,3, 5-triethylalkynyl benzene and carbazole monomers with different structures as construction elements, prepares a porous aromatic skeleton material containing carbazole structural units through Sonogashira-Hagihara coupling reaction, and systematically characterizes the structure and the performance through analysis methods such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, powder X-ray diffraction, a scanning electron microscope, a transmission electron microscope and the like. The porous aromatic skeleton material has excellent thermochemical stability, simultaneously has a large number of carbazole structural units and rich acetylene bonds, and has a unique skeleton structure which is very favorable for increasing the interaction force between the material and iodine molecules, so that the porous aromatic skeleton material is used as a stable and high-capacity novel solid adsorbent for capturing radioactive iodine in nuclear waste.

EXAMPLE 3 use of porous aromatic framework materials LNUs for adsorption of vapor iodine
30mg of dried LNUs powder were placed in pre-weighed glass bottles and simultaneously with 10g of solid iodine in a closed system at 75 ℃ and the samples were weighed at different intervals during the iodine adsorption process. As shown in FIG. 6, the iodine adsorption by LNUs increased rapidly during the initial 5h, followed by a gradual decrease in the rate of mass increase, with no significant change in mass after 48h, indicating substantial saturation of the iodine adsorption by LNUs. The calculation results show that LNU-12, LNU-13 and LNU-14 all have higher iodine adsorption amounts, which are respectively 2.9g/g, 2.1g/g and 2.2 g/g.

As shown in FIG. 7, the porous aromatic skeleton materials LNU-12(a), LNU-13(b), LNU-14(c) containing carbazole structural units prepared by the invention are adsorbed in iodine normal hexane solution. As can be seen from the figure, the color of the initial solution is purple of the iodine simple substance, but with the lapse of time, the normal hexane solution containing the iodine simple substance is almost colorless when the adsorption time is 24h, which proves that the LNUs material can adsorb iodine molecules from the normal hexane solution, and the LNUs have strong adsorption performance on iodine in the solution.
As shown in FIG. 8, the thermogravimetric curves of the porous aromatic skeleton materials LNU-12(a), LNU-13(b), LNU-14(c) containing carbazole structural units prepared by the invention after iodine adsorption.

Iodine release experiments were performed on LNUs material after iodine capture at 120 ℃. Firstly, adsorbing iodine for 48h by LNUs material at 75 ℃, then heating for 320min at 120 ℃, and carrying out iodine release experiment in air to obtain the iodine release efficiency of the LNUs at different time. FIG. 9 is a graph showing the iodine release of porous aromatic skeleton materials LNU-12, LNU-13, LNU-14 containing carbazole structural units prepared in the present invention. As can be seen from the figure, the release rates of LNU-12, LNU-13 and LNU-14 for iodine are respectively 98%, 97% and 89%, and it can be seen that the porous aromatic skeleton material containing carbazole structural units has higher release rate of iodine.
