Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of water treatment, and particularly relates to a synthesis method and application of an iron-aluminum co-doped catalyst. BACKGROUND
[0002] In recent years, emerging pollutants, such as antibiotics, drugs, personal care products, artificial sweeteners and endocrine disruptor chemicals, are widely detected in wastewater from pharmaceutical, dye, pesticide, papermaking and plastic industries. Even after treatment in sewage treatment plants, the concentration of emerging pollutants in water can reach ng / L to μg / L. Studies have shown that the concentration of emerging pollutants in untreated water in Asian regions is higher than that in some countries in Europe and North America. Extensive experiments have proved that the presence of these substances has adverse effects on aquatic ecosystems and human health. For example, antibiotics are widely used in the treatment of diseases in humans and animals. Through the vicious cycle of transformation and biological accumulation, antibiotics persist in the environment and spread widely through natural water systems. Antibiotic exposure promotes the generation of bacterial resistance, changes many basic physiological balances and promotes long-term diseases. At present, advanced oxidation technology has high processing cost, and biological treatment has poor effect and can produce antibiotic-resistant genes, which is harmful. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a low-energy and high-efficiency technology to treat organic pollutants in wastewater, reduce wastewater treatment cost and reduce the generation of antibiotic-resistant genes.
