The invention relates to the technical fields of adsorption and
catalysis, specifically to an adsorbent with photocatalytic activity, and a preparation method and an application thereof. The preparation method provided by the invention comprises the following steps: mixing
sodium silicate and
calcium hydroxide, and carrying out a
hydrothermal reaction so as to obtain a mesoporous
calcium silicatematerial with a surface rich in
wrinkle structures; dissolving tetrabutyl
titanate into
ethanol so as to obtain a solution A; mixing
acetic acid, water and
ethanol so as to obtain a solution B; mixingthe mesoporous
calcium silicate material with the solution B so as to obtain a
system C; and dropwise adding the solution A into the
system C, and sequentially carrying out aging,
drying and calcining so as to obtain the adsorbent with photocatalytic activity. According to the invention, the mesoporous
calcium silicate material with the surface rich in
wrinkle structures is used as a carrier, andtitanium dioxide can be uniformly coated to the surface and internal pores of
calcium silicate by a
sol-
gel method, so the loading capacity of
titanium dioxide can be improved, and the adsorption efficiency, photocatalytic activity and
catalytic decomposition effect of a material are greatly improved.
