[0084] Application Example
[0085] Prepare multiple aqueous solutions with a tetracycline concentration of 20 mg / L. Take 20 mg of the catalysts prepared in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3 respectively and add them to 100 mL of the above solution. Then add 2 mM of the oxidant respectively. Under the conditions of a temperature of 25 °C and a stirring speed of 200 r / min, the reaction time is 60 min. Test the change in the concentration of the tetracycline solution under different catalyst systems of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 4-6, and calculate the degradation rate of tetracycline.
[0086] Figure 1 This is the change curve of the removal rate of tetracycline with time under different catalyst systems of Examples 1-4 of the present invention. From Figure 1 It can be seen that in Example 2, the pure orange peel biochar OPC has poor catalytic degradation ability for tetracycline, and the degradation rate within 60 min is only 11.6%; in Example 3, the orange peel composite biochar catalyst Fe@OPC loaded with metal iron alone has a tetracycline degradation rate of 42.7% within 60 min; in Example 4, the orange peel composite biochar catalyst Co@OPC loaded with metal cobalt alone has a tetracycline degradation rate of 59.1% within 60 min. In contrast, Example 1 of the present application adopts a dual-metal loading scheme, and the prepared Fe-Co@OPC has significantly better catalytic degradation performance than Examples 2-4, and the degradation rate can reach more than 90% within 60 min.
[0087] Figure 2 This is the change curve of the removal rate of tetracycline with time under different oxidant systems of Examples 8-10 of the present invention. From Figure 2 It can be seen that in Example 8, Fe-Co@OPC activates PMS and degrades 96% of tetracycline within 60 min; in Example 9, Fe-Co@OPC activates H 2 O 2 and degrades 89% of tetracycline within 60 min; in Example 10, Fe-Co@OPC activates PAA and degrades 88% of tetracycline within 60 min.
[0088] The above experimental data show that metal modification significantly improves the catalytic activity, and Fe-Co@OPC can efficiently activate PMS, H 2 O 2 and PAA to degrade tetracycline, and the degradation rate reaches more than 85%.
[0089] As can be seen from the above embodiments, the present invention provides a composite biochar catalyst, a preparation method thereof, and an application in the oxidative degradation of antibiotic wastewater.
