[0036] Preferably, the halogen perovskite is Cs2AgBiBr6, and the MOFs material PCN-222 is a phosphoryl-modified PCN-222 material (P-PCN222).
[0037] Uranium-containing wastewater contains a large number of coexisting ions. The presence of cations such as Sr, Cs, Am, Th, Pb and Pu in the solution will inhibit the adsorption of U(VI) by photocatalytic materials, while some multivalent nuclides such as Am, Pu, Tc, etc. will compete with U(VI) for photoelectrons, thereby affecting the photocatalytic efficiency. pH is also an important factor affecting the photocatalytic efficiency. Usually, the pH of uranium-containing wastewater varies widely. For uranium-containing wastewater produced by uranium mining and smelting wastewater and post-treatment processes, the pH is generally strongly acidic. On the one hand, H + It will compete with U(VI) for photogenerated electrons. The embodiment of the present invention uses a halogen perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 with a highly stable and tolerant structure.

At the same time, the close contact between the photocatalytic material quantum dots (QDs) and the catalytic active centers of the MOF can shorten the charge transfer distance, improve the photoinduced charge separation efficiency and catalytic activity of the QDs, and achieve efficient visible light photocatalytic reduction of U(VI).
