Description
本発明は、遊離塩素除去性能、とりわけ高速通水条件下における遊離塩素除去性能に優れた遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維およびそれを用いた遊離塩素含有水の処理方法に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine which has excellent free chlorine removal performance, particularly free chlorine removal performance under high-speed water passage conditions, and a method for treating free chlorine-containing water using the same.
近年、水道水の塩素臭やかび臭を除去するために、家庭用あるいは業務用の浄水器が多く用いられている。このような浄水器では、まず何より残留塩素を除去する性能が前提となっており、残留塩素を吸着除去するためのろ過材料として、活性炭、木炭、カーボンブラック等の多孔質炭素が広く検討され、実用に供されている(非特許文献1)。 In recent years, many household or commercial water purifiers have been used to remove the chlorine odor and musty odor of tap water. Such a water purifier is premised on the performance of removing residual chlorine first, and as a filtering material for adsorbing and removing residual chlorine, porous carbon such as activated carbon, charcoal, and carbon black is widely studied. It is used for practical use (Non-patent Document 1).
また、上記ろ過材料のなかでも、特定の機能を高めた吸着材料として、様々な活性炭が提案されている。例えば、特許文献1には、比表面積が特定の値以上であり、表面の含酸素官能基量が特定の値以下で、かつそのうちのカルボキシル基量が特定の値以下である活性炭が、脱塩素能力とトリハロメタン除去能力に優れていることが記載されている。
In addition, among the above filtration materials, various activated carbons have been proposed as adsorbing materials with enhanced specific functions. For example,
さらに、特許文献2には、カルシウム、カリウム、ナトリウム、マグネシウムの少なくとも一種が特定の値以上含有され、X線光電子分光法で測定される酸性表面官能基量の比率(O1S/C1S)が特定の範囲内である活性炭素繊維が、水中の遊離塩素に対する除去能力に優れていることが記載されている。
Further,
しかしながら、従来の活性炭では、処理しようとする水の流速を高くすればするほど、吸着除去性能が低下するため、処理時の流速を制限せざるを得ないという問題がある。その理由としては、流速が高くなりすぎると、水が充分に活性炭と接触して遊離塩素が活性炭内部の細孔内に入り込むことができなくなることや、活性炭表面に分布する細孔が高い水圧を受けて損傷してしまうことが考えられる。このため、より高速通水下での遊離塩素の除去性能を高めることが、水処理用の活性炭において強く求められている。 However, the conventional activated carbon has a problem in that the higher the flow rate of water to be treated, the lower the adsorption removal performance, and thus the flow rate during treatment must be limited. The reason for this is that if the flow rate becomes too high, water will be in sufficient contact with the activated carbon and free chlorine will not be able to enter the pores inside the activated carbon, or the pores distributed on the activated carbon surface will have a high water pressure. It may be damaged by receiving. For this reason, there is a strong demand for activated carbon for water treatment to improve the removal performance of free chlorine under higher-speed water flow.
本発明は、このような事情に鑑みてなされたもので、従来、充分な遊離塩素除去性能を発揮することのできなかった高速通水下においても優れた遊離塩素除去性能を発揮する活性炭素繊維と、それを用いた遊離塩素含有水の処理方法の提供をその目的とする。 The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and the activated carbon fiber that exhibits excellent free chlorine removal performance even under high-speed water flow that has not been able to exhibit sufficient free chlorine removal performance conventionally. And the objective is to provide a method for treating free chlorine-containing water using the same.
上記の目的を達成するため、本発明は、遊離塩素含有水から遊離塩素を除去するのに用いられる活性炭素繊維であって、平均繊維径が5〜30μm、アスペクト比が150/1未満3/1以上、活性表面積が60m2 /g以上であり、空間速度SVが6000/hの通水条件下で濃度2ppmの遊離塩素含有水(20℃)を通水した際の遊離塩素除去率が80%に低下するまでの累積通水量が、活性炭素繊維1g当たり180L以上である遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維を第1の要旨とする。 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an activated carbon fiber used for removing free chlorine from water containing free chlorine, having an average fiber diameter of 5 to 30 μm and an aspect ratio of less than 150/1. 1 or more , an active surface area of 60 m 2 / g or more, and a free chlorine-removing rate when water containing free chlorine (2 ° C.) having a concentration of 2 ppm is passed under a water passing condition with a space velocity SV of 6000 / h. The first gist is an activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine which has a cumulative water flow rate of 180 L or more per 1 g of activated carbon fiber until the water content decreases to%.
また、本発明は、そのなかでも、特に、1500〜4500m2/gの比表面積を有する遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維を第2の要旨とし、それらのなかでも、特に、0.5〜5meq/gの酸性表面官能基量を有する遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維を第3の要旨とする。 In addition, the present invention has, in particular, activated carbon fibers for removing free chlorine having a specific surface area of 1500 to 4500 m 2 / g as a second gist, and among them, in particular, 0.5 to 5 meq / The activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine having an acidic surface functional group amount of g is a third gist.
さらに、本発明は、それらのなかでも、特に、平均細孔径が1〜4.5nmの細孔を有する遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維を第4の要旨とし、それらのなかでも、特に、0.5〜4mL/gの細孔容積を有する遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維を第5の要旨とする。 Furthermore, the present invention has, as a fourth gist, activated carbon fibers for removing free chlorine having pores having an average pore diameter of 1 to 4.5 nm, among them, and among these, in particular A fifth aspect is an activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine having a pore volume of 5 to 4 mL / g.
そして、本発明は、遊離塩素含有水を、平均繊維径が5〜30μm、アスペクト比が150/1未満3/1以上、活性表面積が60m2 /g以上であり、空間速度SVが6000/hの通水条件下で濃度2ppmの遊離塩素含有水(20℃)を通水した際の遊離塩素除去率が80%に低下するまでの累積通水量が、活性炭素繊維1g当たり180L以上である活性炭素繊維と接触させることにより、遊離塩素を除去もしくは低下させる遊離塩素含有水の処理方法を第6の要旨とする。 In the present invention, free chlorine-containing water has an average fiber diameter of 5 to 30 μm, an aspect ratio of less than 150/1, 3/1 or more , an active surface area of 60 m 2 / g or more, and a space velocity SV of 6000 / h. Activity with a cumulative water flow rate of 180L or more per gram of activated carbon fiber until the free chlorine removal rate drops to 80% when water containing free chlorine (20 ° C) with a concentration of 2 ppm is passed under The sixth gist is a method for treating free chlorine-containing water that removes or reduces free chlorine by contacting with carbon fiber.
また、本発明は、そのなかでも、特に、上記活性炭素繊維が、1500〜4500m2/gの比表面積を有するものである遊離塩素含有水の処理方法を第7の要旨とし、それらのなかでも、特に、上記活性炭素繊維が、0.5〜5meq/gの酸性表面官能基量を有するものである遊離塩素含有水の処理方法を第8の要旨とする。 In addition, the present invention has, in particular, a method for treating free chlorine-containing water in which the activated carbon fiber has a specific surface area of 1500 to 4500 m 2 / g, and among them, among them, In particular, an eighth aspect is a method for treating free chlorine-containing water in which the activated carbon fiber has an acidic surface functional group amount of 0.5 to 5 meq / g.
さらに、本発明は、それらのなかでも、特に、上記活性炭素繊維が、賦活化後に酸化処理もしくは熱処理されたものである遊離塩素含有水の処理方法を第9の要旨とする。 Furthermore, among these, the ninth gist of the present invention is a method for treating free chlorine-containing water in which the activated carbon fiber is oxidized or heat-treated after activation.
すなわち、本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、特定範囲の平均繊維径とアスペクト比と活性表面積とを備えており、空間速度SVが6000/hという高速の通水条件下における処理可能な累積通水量が、活性炭素繊維1g当たり180L以上、という優れた特性を備えている。したがって、この遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維を用いることにより、従来実現することのできなかった、高速通水下での遊離塩素除去処理を実現することができ、長期にわたって、大量の水に対し、効率よく遊離塩素除去処理を行うことができる。 That is, the activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention has an average fiber diameter , an aspect ratio, and an active surface area within a specific range, and can be treated under a high-speed water passing condition with a space velocity SV of 6000 / h. The accumulated water flow rate has an excellent characteristic of 180 L or more per 1 g of activated carbon fiber. Therefore, by using this activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine, free chlorine removal treatment under high-speed water flow, which could not be realized in the past, can be realized.

Since the size of the pores makes it easier to take in free chlorine, it has better free chlorine removal performance.
そして、本発明の遊離塩素含有水の処理方法は、特定範囲の平均繊維径とアスペクト比と活性表面積とを備え、空間速度SVが6000/hという、高速の通水条件下における処理可能な累積通水量が、活性炭素繊維1g当たり180L以上、という優れた特性を備えた本発明の活性炭素繊維を用いて遊離塩素含有水を処理するものである。この処理方法によれば、すでに述べたとおり、高速通水下での遊離塩素除去が可能となり、長期にわたって、大量の水に対して効率よく遊離塩素除去処理を行うことができる。 The method for treating free chlorine-containing water according to the present invention has a specific range of average fiber diameter , aspect ratio, and active surface area, and is capable of being treated under high-speed water passage conditions with a space velocity SV of 6000 / h.

According to this processing method, as already mentioned solid, free chlorine removal under high speed water passage becomes possible over a long period, can be efficiently performed free chlorine removal process for a large number of water.
また、本発明の遊離塩素含有水の処理方法のなかでも、特に、上記活性炭素繊維が、1500〜4500m2/gの比表面積を有するものである場合、また、0.5〜5meq/gの酸性表面官能基量を有するものである場合、遊離塩素処理能力がより優れたものとなり、好適である。 Among the methods for treating free chlorine-containing water of the present invention, particularly when the activated carbon fiber has a specific surface area of 1500 to 4500 m 2 / g, 0.5 to 5 meq / g When it has an acidic surface functional group amount, it becomes more excellent in free chlorine treatment ability, which is preferable.
さらに、上記活性炭素繊維が、賦活化後に酸化処理もしくは熱処理されたものである場合も、遊離塩素処理能力がより優れたものとなり、好適である。 Furthermore, when the activated carbon fiber is subjected to oxidation treatment or heat treatment after activation, the ability to treat free chlorine is more excellent, which is preferable.

つぎに、本発明を実施するための形態について、詳細に説明する。 Next, a mode for carrying out the present invention will be described in detail.
本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、遊離塩素含有水から遊離塩素を除去するのに用いられる活性炭素繊維であって、平均繊維径が5〜30μm、アスペクト比が150/1未満3/1以上、活性表面積が60m2/g以上であり、空間速度SVが6000/hの通水条件下で濃度2ppmの遊離塩素含有水(20℃)を通水して遊離塩素除去率が80%に低下するまでの累積通水量が、活性炭素繊維1g当たり180L以上である、という特性を備えたものである。 The activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention is an activated carbon fiber used for removing free chlorine from water containing free chlorine, and has an average fiber diameter of 5 to 30 μm and an aspect ratio of less than 150/1. 1 or more , active surface area is 60 m 2 / g or more, and free chlorine-containing water (20 ° C.) having a concentration of 2 ppm is passed through under water-passing conditions with a space velocity SV of 6000 / h, and the free chlorine removal rate is 80%. The cumulative amount of water flow until it decreases to 180% or more is provided with a characteristic of 180 L or more per 1 g of activated carbon fiber.
なお、本発明において、上記通水試験における遊離塩素除去率は、用いられる遊離塩素含有水の遊離塩素濃度が2ppmと低いものであることから、通水開始時の遊離塩素除去率が100%であることを前提とし、その100%の除去率が80%に低下するまでの累積通水量を求めている。 In the present invention, the free chlorine removal rate in the water flow test is such that the free chlorine concentration of the free chlorine-containing water used is as low as 2 ppm, so the free chlorine removal rate at the start of water flow is 100%. Assuming that there is a certain amount, the cumulative water flow rate until the 100% removal rate drops to 80% is obtained.
上記特性は、本発明に用いられる活性炭素繊維の原料、炭化条件、賦活条件等を適宜選択することによって達成することができる。以下、その詳細を説明する。 The said characteristic can be achieved by selecting suitably the raw material, carbonization conditions, activation conditions, etc. of the activated carbon fiber used for this invention. Details will be described below.
本発明に用いられる活性炭素繊維は、炭素原料から繊維状の前駆体繊維を形成し、この前駆体繊維を炭化して炭素繊維とした後、賦活化して得ることができる。 The activated carbon fiber used in the present invention can be obtained by forming a fibrous precursor fiber from a carbon raw material, carbonizing the precursor fiber to obtain a carbon fiber, and then activating it.
上記炭素原料としては、特に限定されない。例えば、ピッチ系原料(石油ピッチ、石炭ピッチ、コールタールピッチ、これらの複合物等)、ポリアクリロニトリル(PAN)系樹脂、フェノール系樹脂、フラン系樹脂、イミド系樹脂、アラミド系樹脂、紙や綿等のセルロース系繊維等があげられる。これらのなかでも、ピッチ系原料、ポリアクリロニトリル系樹脂、フェノール系樹脂が好ましく、特に、親水性が高い点で、ポリアクリロニトリル系樹脂が好適である。なお、ピッチ系原料を用いる場合は、異方性であっても等方性であってもよい。そして、これらの炭素原料は、単独で用いても2種以上を組み合わせて用いることもできる。 The carbon raw material is not particularly limited. For example, pitch raw materials (petroleum pitch, coal pitch, coal tar pitch, composites thereof), polyacrylonitrile (PAN) resin, phenolic resin, furan resin, imide resin, aramid resin, paper and cotton Cellulosic fibers and the like. Among these, pitch-based raw materials, polyacrylonitrile-based resins, and phenol-based resins are preferable, and polyacrylonitrile-based resins are particularly preferable in terms of high hydrophilicity. In addition, when using a pitch-type raw material, it may be anisotropic or isotropic. These carbon materials can be used alone or in combination of two or more.
上記炭素原料から前駆体繊維を形成する方法も、特に限定されない。例えば、静電紡糸法やブレンド紡糸法等、公知の紡糸方法から適宜の方法を採用することができる。 The method for forming the precursor fiber from the carbon raw material is not particularly limited. For example, an appropriate method can be adopted from known spinning methods such as an electrostatic spinning method and a blend spinning method.
ちなみに、上記静電紡糸法とは、溶媒に溶解した炭素原料溶液を、電極間に形成された静電場中に吐出し、形成される繊維状物質を捕集基板に累積することにより、前駆体繊維を得る方法である。また、上記ブレンド紡糸法とは、炭素原料と熱可塑性樹脂との混合物を紡糸後、炭素原料を安定化処理し、熱可塑性樹脂を除去することにより、前駆体繊維を得る方法である。 By the way, the above-mentioned electrostatic spinning method is a method in which a carbon raw material solution dissolved in a solvent is discharged into an electrostatic field formed between electrodes, and the formed fibrous material is accumulated on a collection substrate to thereby form a precursor. This is a method for obtaining fibers. The blend spinning method is a method of obtaining a precursor fiber by spinning a mixture of a carbon raw material and a thermoplastic resin, stabilizing the carbon raw material, and removing the thermoplastic resin.
なお、上記前駆体繊維の形態は、紡糸したままの長繊維であっても、これを適宜の長さに切断した短繊維であってもよい。また、その用途に応じて、不織布、織生地、編生地、撚糸、紐といった形態にしておいてもよい。 The precursor fiber may be a long fiber as spun or a short fiber obtained by cutting the precursor fiber into an appropriate length. Moreover, you may make it a form, such as a nonwoven fabric, a woven fabric, a knitted fabric, a twisted thread, a string, according to the use.
つぎに、上記前駆体繊維を炭化して炭素繊維にする方法としては、一般に、窒素等の不活性ガス雰囲気下で加熱処理する方法が用いられる。処理温度は、通常400℃以上であり、好ましくは500〜900℃、より好ましくは550〜750℃、さらに好ましくは600〜700℃である。 Next, as a method of carbonizing the precursor fiber to form carbon fiber, a method of heat treatment in an inert gas atmosphere such as nitrogen is generally used. Processing temperature is 400 degreeC or more normally, Preferably it is 500-900 degreeC, More preferably, it is 550-750 degreeC, More preferably, it is 600-700 degreeC.
つぎに、上記炭素繊維を賦活化して活性炭素繊維を得る方法としては、一般に、水蒸気賦活法もしくはアルカリ賦活法、あるいは水蒸気賦活法とアルカリ賦活法とを組み合わせた賦活が用いられる。 Next, as a method for activating the carbon fibers to obtain activated carbon fibers, generally, a steam activation method or an alkali activation method, or an activation that combines the steam activation method and the alkali activation method is used.
上記水蒸気賦活法とは、水蒸気の存在下、対象となる炭素繊維を高温で加熱処理することにより、炭素繊維の炭素構造を浸食して多くの細孔を形成する方法である。処理温度は、通常700〜1500℃程度であり、好ましくは800〜1300℃、より好ましくは900〜1200℃である。 The water vapor activation method is a method of forming many pores by eroding the carbon structure of the carbon fiber by heat-treating the target carbon fiber at a high temperature in the presence of water vapor. The processing temperature is usually about 700 to 1500 ° C, preferably 800 to 1300 ° C, more preferably 900 to 1200 ° C.
また、上記アルカリ賦活法とは、対象となる炭素繊維にアルカリ性の賦活剤を含浸させ、所定の温度域まで昇温させることにより、炭素繊維の炭素構造を浸食し、さらには炭素構造内に賦活剤を侵入させて多くの細孔を形成する方法である。本発明では、このアルカリ賦活法を用いることが、目的の物性を得る上で好ましい。 Also, the alkali activation method described above impregnates the carbon structure of the carbon fiber by impregnating the target carbon fiber with an alkaline activator and raises the temperature to a predetermined temperature range, and further activates the carbon structure. This is a method of forming a large number of pores by allowing an agent to enter. In the present invention, it is preferable to use this alkali activation method for obtaining the desired physical properties.
上記アルカリ賦活法で用いられる賦活剤としては、例えばLiOH、KOH、NaOH等のアルカリ金属の水酸化物、Ba(OH)2等のアルカリ土類金属の水酸化物、Li2CO3、Na2CO3、K2CO3等のアルカリ金属の炭酸塩等、CaCO3等のアルカリ土類金属の炭酸塩等があげられる。これらのなかでも、特に、KOH、NaOHが好ましい。アルカリ賦活時の処理温度は、用いる賦活剤によっても異なるが、通常400〜1000℃であり、好ましくは500〜900℃、より好ましくは600〜800℃である。また、炭素原料に対する賦活剤の割合は、重量基準で、通常1/2〜6/1であり、好ましくは1/1〜5/1、より好ましくは3/1〜4/1である。 Examples of the activator used in the alkali activation method include alkali metal hydroxides such as LiOH, KOH, and NaOH, alkaline earth metal hydroxides such as Ba (OH) 2 , Li 2 CO 3 , and Na 2. Examples thereof include alkali metal carbonates such as CO 3 and K 2 CO 3 , and alkaline earth metal carbonates such as CaCO 3 . Among these, KOH and NaOH are particularly preferable. The treatment temperature during alkali activation varies depending on the activator used, but is usually 400 to 1000 ° C, preferably 500 to 900 ° C, more preferably 600 to 800 ° C. Moreover, the ratio of the activator with respect to a carbon raw material is 1 / 2-6 / 1 normally on a weight basis, Preferably it is 1 / 1-5 / 1, More preferably, it is 3 / 1-4 / 1.
なお、上記アルカリ賦活法で得られる活性炭素繊維の表面には、賦活剤のアルカリが残留するため、通常、アルカリ賦活処理後、水洗や酸洗浄によるアルカリ除去を行うことが好ましい。 In addition, since the alkali of an activator remains on the surface of the activated carbon fiber obtained by the alkali activation method, it is usually preferable to perform alkali removal by water washing or acid washing after the alkali activation treatment.
また、賦活化によって得られた活性炭素繊維に対し、後処理として、酸化処理や熱処理を行うと、活性炭素繊維の遊離塩素処理能力がより優れたものとなり、好適である。上記酸化処理は、例えば、賦活品に対し、空気雰囲気下で150〜500℃、0.1〜24時間程度保持して行うことができる。また、上記熱処理は、例えば、賦活品に対し、窒素流通下で400〜1200℃、0.1〜24時間保持して行うことができる。 Moreover, when the activated carbon fiber obtained by activation is subjected to an oxidation treatment or a heat treatment as a post-treatment, the free carbon treatment ability of the activated carbon fiber becomes more excellent, which is preferable. The oxidation treatment can be performed, for example, by holding the activated product at 150 to 500 ° C. for about 0.1 to 24 hours in an air atmosphere. Moreover, the said heat processing can be performed by hold | maintaining 400 to 1200 degreeC and 0.1 to 24 hours under nitrogen circulation with respect to an activation product, for example.
このようにして得られる、本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、模式的には、例えば図1(a)に示すような外観となり、その表面部分の拡大断面は、図1(b)に示すようになっている。すなわち、細長く延びる繊維表面に、多数の細孔(いわゆるミクロポア)1が分布しており、単位表面積当たりの細孔1の数が多いことがわかる。
The activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention thus obtained typically has an appearance as shown in FIG. 1 (a), for example, and an enlarged cross section of the surface portion thereof is shown in FIG. 1 (b). It is as shown in. That is, it can be seen that a large number of pores (so-called micropores) 1 are distributed on the surface of the elongated fiber, and the number of
なお、浄水器等のろ過材料として一般に用いられている活性炭は、粒状のものが主流である。粒状活性炭は、その模式的な部分断面図である図2に示すように、表面に比較的大きな開口2(いわゆるマクロポア)があり、その開口2の内側に細孔1が形成された構造になっている。このため、本発明が対象とするような、空間速度SVが6000/hといった高速通水を行うと、水が細孔1の内部まで浸透することなく通過して、遊離塩素除去性能を充分に発現することができない。また、開口2の周縁が水圧で崩れて目詰まりを生じるおそれもある。したがって、本発明のような性能を得ることはできない。
In addition, as for the activated carbon generally used as filtration materials, such as a water purifier, a granular thing is mainstream. As shown in FIG. 2, which is a schematic partial cross-sectional view, granular activated carbon has a structure in which a relatively large opening 2 (so-called macropore) is formed on the surface, and pores 1 are formed inside the
そして、本発明において、活性炭素繊維の平均繊維径[図1(a)において繊維径をXで示す]は、5〜30μmであるが、参考形態を含む範囲としては、0.1〜100μmであり、なかでも、1〜50μmであることが好ましい。すなわち、本発明が対象とするような高速流速の通水下では、平均繊維径が小さすぎると、圧損が増大してしまうため、カラム等への充填量が減少するおそれがある。逆に、平均繊維径が大きすぎると、反応面積が小さくなり、さらに拡散が悪くなるため、高速通水性能が低下するおそれがある。 And in this invention, although the average fiber diameter of an activated carbon fiber [a fiber diameter is shown by X in FIG. 1 (a)] is 5-30 micrometers, as a range including a reference form, it is 0.1-100 micrometers. Oh it is, among others, arbitrary preferred to be a 1~50μm. That is, when the average fiber diameter is too small under water flow at a high flow rate as the object of the present invention, the pressure loss increases, so that the amount of packing in the column or the like may decrease. On the contrary, if the average fiber diameter is too large, the reaction area becomes small and the diffusion becomes worse, so that the high-speed water flow performance may be lowered.
また、本発明において、活性炭素繊維のアスペクト比[繊維長Y/繊維径X、図1(a)を参照]は、150/1未満3/1以上であるが、参考形態を含む範囲としては、通常100000/1〜3/1であり、好ましくは10000/1〜5/1、より好ましくは1000/1〜10/1である。アスペクト比が大きすぎると、取り扱い性の点で不都合が生じるおそれがあり、逆にアスペクト比が小さすぎると繊維形状であることの優位性が保てなくなるおそれがあるからである。 In the present invention, the aspect ratio [fiber length Y / fiber diameter X, see FIG. 1 (a)] of the activated carbon fiber is less than 150/1 and 3/1 or more. In general, it is 100,000 / 1 to 3/1, preferably 10,000 / 1 to 5/1, and more preferably 1000/1 to 10/1. This is because if the aspect ratio is too large, inconvenience may occur in terms of handleability, and conversely if the aspect ratio is too small, the superiority of the fiber shape may not be maintained.
さらに、本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、カルボキシル基、カルボニル基、フェノール性水酸基、ラクトン基等の酸性表面官能基を有するものであり、その酸性表面官能基量は、通常0.5〜5meq/g、好ましくは0.8〜4.5meq/g、より好ましくは1.0〜4.0meq/gである。すなわち、上記酸性表面官能基は、遊離塩素と反応して除去する作用を果たすため、これらの量が少なすぎると、活性炭素繊維の比表面積が大きく水との接触面積が大きくても、遊離塩素と反応して除去する効果が不充分になるおそれがある。一方、上記酸性表面官能基量を上記の範囲よりも多くするには、後処理工程(酸化処理等)が増えるため、製造コストが高くなるおそれがあり、好ましくない。 Furthermore, the activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention has an acidic surface functional group such as a carboxyl group, a carbonyl group, a phenolic hydroxyl group, and a lactone group, and the amount of the acidic surface functional group is usually 0.5. -5 meq / g, preferably 0.8-4.5 meq / g, more preferably 1.0-4.0 meq / g. That is, the above acidic surface functional group acts to remove by reacting with free chlorine. If these amounts are too small, even if the specific surface area of activated carbon fiber is large and the contact area with water is large, free chlorine There is a possibility that the effect of removing by reacting with will be insufficient. On the other hand, if the amount of the acidic surface functional group is larger than the above range, the number of post-treatment steps (oxidation treatment or the like) increases, which may increase the production cost, which is not preferable.
また、本発明において、活性炭素繊維の比表面積は、比較的大きいものが好ましく、通常1000〜4500m2/g、好ましくは1500〜4500m2/g、より好ましくは2000〜4500m2/gである。すなわち、比表面積が大きければ大きいほど、水との接触面積が大きくなるため、遊離塩素を除去する性能が向上するものの、あまり大きすぎると、活性炭素繊維の構造が脆くなるおそれがある。 In the present invention, the specific surface area of the activated carbon fiber is preferably relatively large, and is usually 1000 to 4500 m 2 / g, preferably 1500 to 4500 m 2 / g, and more preferably 2000 to 4500 m 2 / g. That is, the larger the specific surface area, the larger the contact area with water, so that the performance of removing free chlorine is improved, but if it is too large, the structure of the activated carbon fiber may become brittle.
そして、本発明において、活性炭素繊維の活性表面積は、遊離塩素除去性能の点から、60m2/g以上であり、70m2/g以上がより好ましく、80m2/g以上がさらに好ましい。すなわち、上述のように、水との接触面積が大きい点において、比表面積の大きい方が遊離塩素を含有する水を処理する上で好ましいが、遊離塩素との反応性を高めるには、活性表面積の大きい方が、より好ましい。 In the present invention, the active carbon fiber has an active surface area of 60 m 2 / g or more, more preferably 70 m 2 / g or more, and still more preferably 80 m 2 / g or more, from the viewpoint of the ability to remove free chlorine. That is, as described above, in terms of a large contact area with water, a larger specific surface area is preferable for treating water containing free chlorine, but in order to increase the reactivity with free chlorine, an active surface area is required. The larger one is more preferable.
また、本発明において、活性炭素繊維に形成される細孔1は、遊離塩素除去性能の点から、その平均細孔径が1〜4.5nmであることが好ましく、より好ましくは1.5〜4.0nm、さらに好ましくは2〜3.5nmである。上記平均細孔径が小さくなりすぎると拡散が悪く性能が低下するおそれがあり、逆に上記平均細孔径が大きすぎると活性炭素繊維自体が嵩高くなってカラム等への充填量が減少するおそれがある。
In the present invention, the
さらに、本発明において、活性炭素繊維の形成される細孔容積(全細孔容積の趣旨である、以下同じ)は、0.5〜4mL/gであることが好ましく、より好ましくは0.7〜3.5mL/g、さらに好ましくは1〜3mL/gである。上記細孔容積が少なすぎると、水との接触が不充分になるおそれがあり、逆に上記細孔容積が大きすぎると、活性炭素繊維自体が嵩高くなってカラム等への充填量が減少するおそれがある。 Furthermore, in the present invention, the pore volume in which the activated carbon fiber is formed (the meaning of the total pore volume, hereinafter the same) is preferably 0.5 to 4 mL / g, more preferably 0.7. -3.5mL / g, More preferably, it is 1-3mL / g. If the pore volume is too small, contact with water may be insufficient. Conversely, if the pore volume is too large, the activated carbon fiber itself becomes bulky and the amount of packing in the column or the like decreases. There is a risk.
そして、本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、前述のとおり、空間速度SVが6000/hの通水条件下で濃度2ppmの遊離塩素含有水(20℃)を通水して遊離塩素除去率が80%に低下するまでの累積通水量が、活性炭素繊維1g当たり180L以上であり、好ましくは200L以上、より好ましくは300L以上である。 The activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention, as described above, removes free chlorine by passing free chlorine-containing water (20 ° C.) at a concentration of 2 ppm under a water flow condition with a space velocity SV of 6000 / h. The accumulated water flow rate until the rate drops to 80% is 180 L or more per 1 g of activated carbon fiber, preferably 200 L or more, more preferably 300 L or more.
すなわち、従来の家庭用浄水器では、一般に、空間速度SVが500〜3000/h程度の通水条件下での対象物質の80%除去までの累積通水量を、その対象物質の除去性能の目安としており、例えば空間速度SVが5000/hを超えるような、高速流速下での長期使用に耐える遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は提案されていない。これに対し、本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、上記のように、極めて高速流速での通水を行っても、遊離塩素除去率が80%に低下するまでの累積通水量が大きいのであり、大量の水を、高速で長期にわたって良好に処理することができる。 That is, in the conventional household water purifier, generally, the cumulative water flow rate up to 80% removal of the target substance under the water flow condition with a space velocity SV of about 500 to 3000 / h is a measure of the removal performance of the target substance. For example, there has not been proposed an activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine that can withstand long-term use under a high flow rate such that the space velocity SV exceeds 5000 / h. On the other hand, the activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention has a large accumulated water flow rate until the free chlorine removal rate is reduced to 80% even when water is passed at an extremely high flow rate as described above. Therefore, a large amount of water can be treated well at a high speed for a long time.
もちろん、通水時において、空間速度SVが6000/hよりも低くなると、それだけ遊離塩素除去性能の寿命が延びるため、累積通水量はさらに多くなり、より長期間、効果的に遊離塩素除去を行うことができる。したがって、本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、必ずしも空間速度SVが6000/hという高速条件下で使用する必要はなく、要求される通水条件で適宜に使用することができる。 Of course, when the space velocity SV is lower than 6000 / h during water flow, the life of the free chlorine removal performance is increased accordingly, so that the accumulated water flow amount is further increased, and free chlorine removal is effectively performed for a longer period. be able to. Therefore, the activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention does not necessarily need to be used under a high-speed condition where the space velocity SV is 6000 / h, and can be appropriately used under a required water flow condition.
そして、本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、前述のように、高速流速で通水した際にも優れた遊離塩素除去性能を発揮することから、とりわけ、大量の水から高速で遊離塩素を除去する必要がある用途に適している。したがって、本発明は、家庭用浄水器に限らず、業務用浄水器、あるいは各種産業用の脱塩素処理装置、水循環装置、水回収リサイクル装置等に好適に用いることができる。 As described above, the activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention exhibits excellent free chlorine removing performance even when water is passed at a high flow rate. Suitable for applications where it is necessary to remove Therefore, the present invention can be suitably used not only for household water purifiers, but also for commercial water purifiers, various industrial dechlorination devices, water circulation devices, water recovery and recycling devices, and the like.
また、本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、トリハロメタン除去用のろ過材料等、他の機能に特化した材料と組み合わせることにより、より高機能が要求される用途においても好適に用いることができる。 Moreover, the activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention can be suitably used in applications requiring higher functions by combining with a material specialized for other functions such as a filtration material for removing trihalomethane. it can.

Each sample of the obtained example product and comparative product is packed in a predetermined column, and based on the household water purifier test method (JIS S 3201), the flow rate at which the space velocity SV is 6000 / h, the concentration is 2 ppm. A water passage test was conducted on free chlorine-containing water (20 ° C.), and the cumulative amount of water flow until the free chlorine removal rate decreased from 100% to 80% was determined. The obtained cumulative water flow rate (per 1 g of sample) is shown in Tables 1 and 2 below.

<カラム用試料の調整>
繊維状の実施例品、比較例1品においては、各試料を115℃で2時間以上乾燥し、ミキサー(大阪ケミカル社製、ラボミキサーPlus)にそれぞれ2g、純水を298g入れ、30秒間湿式粉砕した。これらの粉砕品を115℃で一日乾燥し、53〜300μmの範囲になるように篩で大きさの分級調整を行った。
また、粒状の比較例2品においては、試料を115℃で2時間以上乾燥し、53〜300μmの範囲になるように篩で大きさの分級調整を行った。
<Preparation of column sample>
In the fibrous example product and the comparative example 1 product, each sample was dried at 115 ° C. for 2 hours or more, and 2 g and 298 g of pure water were put in a mixer (laboratory mixer plus, manufactured by Osaka Chemical Co., Ltd.), and wet for 30 seconds. Crushed. These pulverized products were dried at 115 ° C. for one day, and size classification was adjusted with a sieve so as to be in the range of 53 to 300 μm.
In the case of two granular comparative examples, the sample was dried at 115 ° C. for 2 hours or more, and size classification was adjusted with a sieve so as to be in the range of 53 to 300 μm.
<カラムへの試料充填>
カラム用に調整した試料を115℃で2時間以上乾燥し、0.7g秤量し、カラムに湿式で充填した。カラムは内径19mm、高さ100mmのアクリル管を使用し、下流側よりガラスウール、試料、ガラスビーズの順に充填した。
<Packing the sample into the column>
The sample prepared for the column was dried at 115 ° C. for 2 hours or more, 0.7 g was weighed, and the column was packed wet. The column used was an acrylic tube having an inner diameter of 19 mm and a height of 100 mm, and packed in the order of glass wool, sample, and glass beads from the downstream side.
<遊離塩素含有水の調製>
市販の活性炭カートリッジフィルター(アズワン社製、Type−2)を用いて水道水をろ過し、容量300Lのタンクに貯留しておき、有効塩素濃度が2ppmになるように次亜塩素酸ナトリウム溶液(有効塩素濃度12重量%:キシダ化学製)を注入した。所定量の次亜塩素酸溶液を注入した後、よく撹拌することにより、「遊離塩素含有水」を調製した。
<Preparation of free chlorine-containing water>
Tap water is filtered using a commercially available activated carbon cartridge filter (Type-2, manufactured by As One Co., Ltd.), stored in a 300 L tank, and sodium hypochlorite solution (effective) so that the effective chlorine concentration is 2 ppm. A chlorine concentration of 12% by weight (made by Kishida Chemical Co., Ltd.) was injected. After injecting a predetermined amount of hypochlorous acid solution, well-stirred to prepare “free chlorine-containing water”.
<遊離塩素残留濃度の測定>
通水試験において、カラム通過前後の水を適時採取して、その遊離塩素残留濃度を測定して遊離塩素除去率を算出した。なお、遊離塩素残留濃度は、バイアル瓶に10mL採取された水を、直ちに調整DPD試薬(関東化学社製、ラピッドDPD試薬[分包])を加えて約20秒振とうさせ、残留塩素計(HACH社製)を用いて濃度測定を行った。
<Measurement of residual free chlorine concentration>
In the water flow test, water before and after passing through the column was sampled in a timely manner, and the free chlorine residual concentration was measured to calculate the free chlorine removal rate. The residual free chlorine concentration was determined by adding 10 mL of water collected in a vial to the adjusted DPD reagent (Rapid DPD reagent [packaging]) immediately after shaking for about 20 seconds. Concentration measurement was performed using HACH.
上記の結果から、実施例1〜10品は、空間速度SVが6000/hの流速下での通水試験において、いずれも累積通水量が180L/g以上となっている。したがって、従来にない、高速通水に適した、優れた遊離塩素除去性能を備えていることがわかる。一方、活性炭素繊維であっても活性表面積が60m2/g未満である比較例1品や、粒状活性炭である比較例2品は、累積通水量が格段に少なく、短時間で実用的な効果を失うことがわかる。 From the above results, the products of Examples 1 to 10 all have a cumulative water flow rate of 180 L / g or more in a water flow test under a flow rate of space velocity SV of 6000 / h. Therefore, it turns out that it has the outstanding free chlorine removal performance suitable for high-speed water flow which is not in the past. On the other hand, the comparative example 1 product whose active surface area is less than 60 m 2 / g even for the activated carbon fiber and the comparative example 2 product which is granular activated carbon have much less accumulated water flow rate and have practical effects in a short time. You can see that you lose.
ちなみに、上記実施例1、2、5品と、比較例1、2品について、上記の通水試験(空間速度SVが6000/hとなる流速下)における累積通水量と遊離塩素除去の除去率との関係を図3に示す。図3において、遊離塩素除去率が80%のラインを一点鎖線Zで示す。 Incidentally, with respect to the above-mentioned Examples 1, 2, 5 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2, the cumulative water flow rate and the removal rate of free chlorine removal in the above water flow test (under a flow rate where the space velocity SV is 6000 / h). FIG. 3 shows the relationship. In FIG. 3, a line having a free chlorine removal rate of 80% is indicated by a one-dot chain line Z.
本発明の遊離塩素除去用活性炭素繊維は、家庭用、業務用に係わらず、各種の浄水器等において、遊離塩素除去用のろ過材料として広く利用することができる。また、本発明の遊離塩素含有水の処理方法は、遊離塩素含有水から効果的に遊離塩素を除去することができるため、遊離塩素除去処理に広く利用することができる。 The activated carbon fiber for removing free chlorine of the present invention can be widely used as a filtering material for removing free chlorine in various water purifiers, regardless of household use or business use. Moreover, since the free chlorine containing water of the present invention can effectively remove free chlorine from the free chlorine containing water, it can be widely used for the free chlorine removing treatment.
