The invention discloses a high-dispersion
rhodium-loaded defect-state black
titanium dioxide photocatalyst, preparation and application thereof in preparation of propylene through photocatalytic
methane conversion, and belongs to the technical field of
methane photocatalytic conversion. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out
chemical reduction treatment on
titanium dioxide, carrying out high-temperature
calcination, and then washing, carrying out suction
filtration and
drying to obtain black
titanium dioxide; carrying out
hydrogen peroxide treatment on the
titanium dioxide, and further modifying the
surface structure of the
titanium dioxide to obtain defect-state black
titanium dioxide; and finally, mixing with a
metal Rh precursor solution, and calcining to obtain the high-dispersion
metal Rh loaded defect-state black titanium dioxide photocatalyst. The prepared catalyst has excellent light
absorption capacity, energy from visible light to a near-
infrared region (accounting for about 96% of
solar energy) in
sunlight can be fully utilized, efficient and selective conversion from
methane to propylene is achieved under the conditions of low temperature and
visible light irradiation, the propylene selectivity can reach 70% or above, and reaction activity far exceeding thermodynamic limitation is shown.
