Embodiment 1

[0037] The preparation process and characterization of titanium dioxide heterojunction photoanode, the specific steps are as follows:

[0038] Fluorine-doped tin dioxide conductive glass with a size of 30×10×2.2mm was ultrasonically cleaned with acetone, ethanol and distilled water respectively to remove grease and dust on the surface. After drying, the fluorine-doped tin dioxide conductive glass was added to the hydrothermal solution and heated at 180°C for 8 hours. As the hydrothermal solution, tetrabutyl titanate hydrochloric acid solution was used, and 1 mL of tetrabutyl titanate was added to a mixture of 25 mL of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 25 mL of distilled water, and magnetically stirred until clarified. After the reaction, the electrode was rinsed with distilled water and air-dried. Then, the electrode was placed in the isopropanol solution of titanium isopropoxide, and solvothermal at 200°C for 24h. Solvothermal solution adopts titanium isopropoxide / isopropa...

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method and an application of a titanium dioxide heterojunction photoanode. The method comprises the following steps: (1) removing grease and dust on the surface of fluorine-doped tin oxide conductive glass; (2) adding the fluorine-doped tin oxide conductive glass treated in the step (1) into a hydrothermal solution, carrying out hydrothermal treatment, and thus obtaining rutile-phase titanium dioxide nanorods; and (3) adding the rutile-phase titanium dioxide nanorods into a solvent thermal solution, carrying out solvent thermal treatment, then rinsing with anhydrous ethanol, air-drying, carrying out annealing heat treatment, and thus obtaining the titanium dioxide heterojunction photoanode. With the titanium dioxide heterojunction photoanode as a photoanode and adopting of a three-electrode system, oxidative degradation of organic wastewater is carried out by utilizing simulated sunlight. Compared with the prior art, the prepared titanium dioxide heterojunction photoanode is a nano array, and has high-distribution heterostructure, higher specific surface area, larger active crystal face exposure, and stronger sunlight photoelectric catalytic activity.
