The preparation method comprises the steps that firstly, a
carbon source and a
nitrogen source are stirred and mixed to be uniform, alkylamine
polyoxyethylene ether is added into the mixture under the water bath heating condition, the mixture is sealed and stirred to form a light yellow block, then a
solid-phase pyrolytic reaction is conducted, and a black
solid product is obtained;
grinding the black
solid product, dispersing in n-
hexane, and washing; and adding absolute ethyl
alcohol and further washing by combining ultrasonic
waves to obtain a black powdery product. Dissolving the product in deionized water, filtering and purifying, and carrying out
centrifugal separation on the obtained black liquid; dialyzing the
clear liquid, and finally
drying the solution in a
dialysis bag to obtain the
nitrogen-doped
quantum dots. Preparing
nitrogen-doped
quantum dot dispersion liquid by using on-site injection fluid; and injecting the dispersion liquid into a target reservoir, soaking for 1-2 days, and then opening the well for production. The nitrogen-doped
quantum dots are suitable for low-permeability (ultra-
low permeability) oil reservoirs, compact oil reservoirs and
shale oil reservoirs, and the
recovery efficiency of
crude oil is economically and efficiently improved.
