Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of photocatalysis, and in particular to a novel photocatalyst for producing hydrogen from organic wastewater and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Since the discovery in 1972 that TiO2 can decompose water into hydrogen and oxygen under ultraviolet light, research on semiconductor-catalyzed water splitting has garnered widespread attention. Storing energy in the form of hydrogen is much more convenient than storing electrical or thermal energy. Furthermore, hydrogen has numerous advantages, including a high calorific value (≈143 kJ / g), clean and environmentally friendly properties, and non-toxicity.

[0003] However, the most strongly distributed components in the solar spectrum are concentrated in the visible light region. Therefore, designing catalysts with high quantum yields in the visible light region is the key to fully utilizing solar energy and reducing the cost of photocatalytic hydrogen production.

[0004] In recent years, scientists have explored the possibility of using wastewater containing toxic organic pollutants as sacrificial agents in photocatalytic hydrogen production systems, thereby establishing bifunctional photocatalytic systems. This approach, combined with a series of studies, suggests that bifunctional photocatalytic systems could utilize toxic organic pollutants as sacrificial agents for photocatalytic water splitting to produce hydrogen. This approach reduces the cost of sacrificial agents while simultaneously degrading organic pollutants, achieving two goals at once. This represents a promising photocatalytic system for research and development. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a novel photocatalyst for producing hydrogen from organic wastewater and a preparation method thereof, so as to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a method for preparing a new photocatalyst for producing hydrogen from organic wastewater, comprising the following preparation steps: (1) Add 40-60 mL of water and quaternized tungsten trioxide powder to the sodium vanadate solution, stir for 4-8 hours, filter out the solid, wash, dry, and calcine to obtain V2O5 / tungsten trioxide; (2) Add V2O5 / tungsten trioxide to the silver ammonia solution, stir for 4-6 hours, filter out the solid, wash, and dry to obtain silver vanadate / tungsten oxide; (3) Mix the hydroxylated reduced graphene oxide and the solvent to prepare a 35-55 wt% mixed solution, add silver vanadate / tungsten oxide, grind at 200-500 r / s for 100-180 min, filter and collect the solid, dry at 100 °C for 6 h, and heat to 500 °C for calcination for 5 h.

[0007] Furthermore, the quaternized tungsten trioxide powder is prepared by quaternizing and modifying tungsten trioxide porous nanorods as raw materials; the tungsten trioxide porous nanorods are prepared with reference to CN201711479360.4.

[0008] Furthermore, the sodium vanadate solution in step (1) is prepared from vanadium pentoxide and sodium hydroxide.

[0009] Furthermore, in step (1), the mass ratio of the quaternized tungsten trioxide powder to the vanadium pentoxide is 1-5:1.

[0010] Furthermore, the drying temperature in step (1) is 100°C.

[0011] Furthermore, in step (1), the calcination temperature is 300-400° C., and the calcination time is 5 h.

[0012] Furthermore, the drying temperature in step (2) is 100-105°C.

[0013] Furthermore, the hydroxylated reduced graphene oxide in step (3) is prepared from reduced graphene oxide, aminobenzoic acid, and isoamyl nitrite.

[0014] Furthermore, in step (3), the mass ratio of the silver vanadate / tungsten oxide to the hydroxylated reduced graphene oxide is 1-10:1-10.

[0015] Furthermore, the solvent in step (3) includes one or more of xylene, propylene glycol methyl ether, propylene carbonate, methyl isobutyl ketone and ethylene glycol ethyl ether.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) The photocatalyst of the present invention has both oxidation and reduction capabilities, and can simultaneously achieve efficient degradation and hydrogen production under sunlight.

[0017] (2) The present invention utilizes quaternized porous tungsten oxide to attract vanadate to bind, thereby facilitating the growth of surface silver vanadate loading, achieving the composite of silver vanadate and tungsten oxide, and to a certain extent improving the utilization rate of sunlight, reducing the recombination rate of photogenerated electrons and holes, and maximizing the redox capacity.

[0018] (3) The present invention pre-treats graphene oxide by reducing it so that its surface carries active groups such as hydroxyl and carboxyl groups. During the grinding and compounding process with tungsten oxide / silver vanadate, the bonding strength is strengthened by subsequent heat treatment. The reduced graphene oxide has good conductivity and can act as an electron "high-speed channel" to effectively inhibit the recombination of photogenerated electron-hole pairs in WO3, thereby improving the visible light catalytic performance. In addition, porous tungsten trioxide and reduced graphite oxide have an adsorption effect and can adsorb organic matter in wastewater, thereby locally concentrating it and accelerating degradation. The present invention can significantly enhance the visible light response and charge separation efficiency by designing the ratio of silver vanadate, tungsten oxide, and reduced graphene oxide, thereby achieving a synergistic effect, thereby improving the degradation of organic pollutants and photocatalytic hydrogen production performance, while reducing photocorrosion dissolution.
