The invention relates to a method for preparing a photocatalyst based on a
polysaccharide morphology
inducer and a method for degrading organic pollutants in
wastewater, and the method comprises the following steps: S1, dispersing
algal polysaccharides and
chitosan into weakly acidic water according to a
mass ratio of 1: (2-4) to obtain a 0.2-0.5 g / mL
polysaccharide aqueous dispersion;
powder of soluble
bismuth salt is added into the dispersion liquid, stirring is conducted for 20-30 min at the rotating speed of 300-500 rpm, and according to the weight of the
bismuth element, the final adding concentration of the
bismuth salt is 0.1-0.3 g / mL; s2, a
chlorine salt
aqueous solution is prepared, the
molar ratio of
chlorine ions contained in
chlorine salt to bismuth is 1: 1, the chlorine salt
aqueous solution and the
reaction system in the S1 are mixed, stirring is conducted for 30-40 min at the rotating speed of 300-500 rpm, the mixture is transferred into a high-pressure reaction kettle, and a heat preservation reaction is conducted for 3-6 h at the temperature of 170-190 DEG C; s3, adding cold water of which the volume is 2-4 times that of the
reaction system, stirring for 10-20 minutes at the rotating speed of 10-50 rpm, centrifuging, collecting precipitate, washing the precipitate with
distilled water, and
drying to obtain the photocatalyst. Compared with BiOCl prepared without a morphology
inducer, the photocatalyst shows better degradation efficiency when degradation-resistant organic matters in
wastewater are degraded.
