运用密度泛函理论模拟了钡十字沸石离子交换的热力学性质,确定钠型及铵型沸石与K+交换时,为放热反应;铵型沸石与Na+交换时,为吸热反应。采用水热法制备了钡十字沸石,并用XRD、FT-IR及SEM进行表征,制备的样品改性后用于模拟海水中K+的吸附动力学实验。结果表明沸石离子交换后,其骨架结构保持不变;铵型沸石在模拟海水中对K+的吸附速率快于钠型沸石;钠型及铵型沸石在模拟海水中对K+的吸附属于准二级反应,膜扩散是控速步骤。
The thermodynamic properties of merlinoite in the process of ion exchange were simulated by Density Functional Theory (DFT).It can be found that the process of K+-Na+ and K+-NH4+ ion exchange for Na-merlinoite and NH4-merlinoite respectively was an exothermic reaction, however, the process of Na+-NH4+ ion exchange for NH4-merlinoite was an endother- mic reaction.Meanwhile ,merlinoite was prepared by hydrothermal method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrum analyzer (FT-IR) as well as scanning electron microscopy (SEM).The sample was modi- fied successively with NH4Cl and NaCl heated solution.Then, adsorption kinetics of separating potassium from simulated sea- water with the sample modified were investigated.Results indicated that the modified merlinoite had the same framework structure as the synthetic merlinoite ;the adsorption ratio of potassium from simulated seawater for NH4-merlinoite was more rapid than that for Na-merlinoite ; in addition, the adsorption kinetics of the merlinoite was best described by pseudo-second- order kinetic equation and the ion exchange process was controlled by liquid film diffusion.
