The invention relates to a method for preparing a catalyst for coke-oven gas methanation, which belongs to preparation aiming at the practical application condition of the coke-oven gas methanation. The catalyst uses Gamma-phase alumina as a carrier, silicon carbide as a wave-absorbing material, nickel oxide as an active ingredient and cerium oxide as an auxiliary agent, the grinding, the sieving, the solid-phase mixing, the microwave heating and the calcining decomposition are adopted, the sage green powder solid catalyst is finally synthesized, the content of the product active component ofthe nickel oxide is 19.67 percent, the crystal grain diameter is smaller than or equal to 100nm, in addition, the dispersion is uniform, and the methanation can be fast completed through the mixing with coke-oven gas, so the coke-oven gas is better applied. The preparation method has the advantages that the process is advanced, the flow process is short, the operation is simple and convenient, the preparation time is short, the energy consumption is low, the material proportion is reasonable, the data is full and accurate, the product stability is good, the methanation of the coke-oven gas under the condition of supplementing the carbon dioxide can be realized, and the method belongs to an ideal method for preparing the catalyst for the coke-oven gas methanation.
