The invention belongs to the technical field of 
sewage treatment, and relates to a preparation method and application of 
graphene oxide. The preparation method of 
graphene oxide comprises the steps:adding 
graphite powder to a 
beaker containing concentrated 
sulfuric acid for pre-oxidation firstly, then adding 
potassium permanganate to the 
beaker in an 
ice water bath, performing stirring, removingthe 
ice water bath, adding deionized water at 
room temperature, performing stirring, then adding a saturated 
hydrogen peroxide solution slowly until the color of the mixed liquid turns golden yellow,and performing stirring; and finally, performing washing and 
precipitation on the obtained mixed liquid, and performing 
centrifugation, 
dialysis and 
freeze drying so as to obtain the brown-yellow floc 
graphene oxide. The whole preparation process does not need complicated 
temperature control, and has easy operation and no high-temperature production stages, the production safety factor is improved, meanwhile, more energy saving is achieved, and the production cost is reduced; and the produced graphene oxide 
powder has good strengthening performance for 
anammox bacteria, and is suitable for industrial production, and good economic and environmental benefits can be achieved.
