The invention discloses a method for preparing cuprous
oxide from grape
skin and application of the cuprous
oxide in photocatalytic synthesis of
hydrogen peroxide, and belongs to the field of
green chemistry and photocatalytic synthesis of high-value chemicals. According to the method disclosed by the invention, the
biomass waste grape
skin is taken as a
raw material, rich
resveratrol and the like in the
raw material are extracted as a green
reducing agent, a traditional cuprous
oxide synthesis process is innovated, and an environment-friendly and sustainable nano cuprous oxide preparation strategy is developed. The method comprises the following steps:
drying fresh grape
skin,
grinding into
powder, adding deionized water, fully heating and stirring, standing, cooling to
room temperature, and reserving
clear liquid to obtain a grape skin extracting solution; and sequentially adding
copper sulfate pentahydrate,
sodium hydroxide and the grape skin extracting solution into deionized water, heating and stirring until the reaction is finished, cooling to
room temperature, washing and
drying to obtain cuprous oxide
solid powder.
