The invention discloses a nano
iron oxide modified carbon-based
electrode as well as a macroscopic-size large-scale preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the technical field of microbial
electrochemistry. The macroscopic-size large-scale preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) weighing a
carbon source and an
iron source, and dissolving the
carbon source and the
iron source in deionized water to obtain an
iron oxide precursor solution; and (2) taking a carbon-based
electrode, sequentially cleaning the carbon-based
electrode with acid and deionized water, naturally airing the carbon-based electrode, infiltrating the carbon-based electrode with an
iron oxide precursor solution,
drying the carbon-based electrode, wrapping and sealing the carbon-based electrode with aluminum-foil paper, and performing heat treatment on the carbon-based electrode in a
muffle furnace to obtain the nano iron
oxide modified carbon-based electrode. The iron
oxide nano material is modified on the surface of the carbon-based electrode, the
extracellular electron transfer efficiency of the electrode and microorganisms is improved, the preparation process is simple, iron
oxide and the surface of the electrode are tightly combined under the action of a
carbon source under the condition of high-temperature
pyrolysis, the electrode with a stable structure is obtained, the electrochemical performance of
microorganism electrochemistry is improved, and the application prospect is wide. Enrichment of functional microorganisms is promoted, and the removal effect of pollutants in a polluted
water body is enhanced.
