A method for preparing vanillin through a sodium isoeugenol process relates to the technical field of the chemical industry. The method comprises the following steps: mixing sodium isoeugenol and water, adding the obtained mixture into an oxidation reaction kettle, carrying out an oxidation reaction, connecting with a vent pipe to input ozone, increasing the ozone rate to drive the stirring and overturning of a liquid in the oxidation reaction kettle in order to carry out a liquid phase oxidation reaction, layering the liquid obtained after the liquid phase oxidation reaction, adding a sodium sulfite solution to decompose ozonides, neutralizing the ozonides, washing with water to obtain crude vanillin, adding to a refining kettle, carrying out refining crystallization, drying to obtain finished vanillin, packaging and warehousing. The method has the advantages of convenient and simple preparation, environmental protection, no pollution, less equipment investment, high purity and convenient operation, and the prepared vanillin has the advantages of good use effect, safety and reliability.
