The invention discloses a method for synergistically degrading organic pollutants by using
pyrite and
sodium hypophosphite, and belongs to the technical field of
water pollution control and advanced oxidation. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out ball milling, sieving, washing and
drying on
pyrite to obtain treated
pyrite, and storing under an anaerobic condition; and then adding the treated pyrite and
sodium hypophosphite into the
water body containing the organic pollutants, and reacting under the condition of natural light to degrade the organic pollutants. Through the synergistic effect of the pyrite and the
sodium hypophosphite, an exogenous oxidant does not need to be added in an organic
pollutant degradation
system, and free radicals can be generated only through internal reaction of the
system, so that the
system can still keep high degradation activity on the organic pollutants in an anaerobic or anaerobic environment; dependence of a traditional advanced oxidation technology on dissolved
oxygen is broken through, the application potential of the method in in-situ remediation of underground water, bottom mud and other anoxic environments is widened, in addition, the cost is remarkably reduced, and the risk of secondary
pollution is eradicated.
