Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of water pollution purification, in particular to a BiOCl / PEDOT:PSS-based photocatalytic hydrogel with a solvent effect and application. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the acceleration of social development process, the discharge amount of various organic pollutants such as antibiotics, dyes and pesticides also increases year by year, which seriously pollutes water bodies and causes threats to human health and the environment. Photocatalysis is a simple water pollution treatment method, which can directly use sunlight as the only energy source to decompose organic pollutants into water and carbon dioxide, and is one of the promising methods in organic wastewater treatment. However, due to the limitations of the band gap structure, contact area and carrier separation of the material, the current photocatalyst is mainly applied in the form of nano powder, and the powder granular material is difficult to separate after use, which will cause high treatment cost and secondary pollution, hindering its practical application. Loading the powder photocatalyst into the hydrogel bulk material can solve the problem of difficult recovery of the photocatalyst, which is conducive to the recycling of the photocatalyst. Moreover, the adsorption of the hydrogel can also promote the photocatalytic degradation of the organic pollutants, realizing the synergistic purification effect of adsorption-photocatalysis. Among many hydrogel materials, biomass hydrogel has attracted widespread attention due to its excellent adsorption performance, wide source, green environmental protection and biodegradability. Loading the photocatalyst on the biomass hydrogel can effectively solve the problem of difficult recovery of the photocatalyst. However, due to the poor transport capacity of most biomass hydrogels for carriers, the catalytic performance of the biomass hydrogel photocatalytic system cannot meet the expected performance.
