The present invention discloses a photocatalyst for reducing low-concentration
carbon dioxide and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of catalyst preparation. The preparation method comprises the following steps: dissolving a
cobalt source and dimethylimidazole in an
organic solvent to obtain solution A, reacting, and obtaining a precipitate, namely the
rhombic dodecahedron Co-
metal organic framework; dissolving a
nickel source and an aluminum source in an
organic solvent, and then mixing with the
rhombic dodecahedron Co-
metal organic framework to obtain solution B, reacting, and obtaining a precipitate, namely the hollow multi-stage CoNiAl-LDHs photocatalyst. The present invention uses the
rhombic dodecahedron Co-
metal organic framework as a template, introduces Ni and Al by a self-
etching method, and constructs a hollow multi-stage CoNiAl-LDHs
nanoflower-shaped photocatalyst containing different
electronic states. In production and application, the preparation method of the present invention is simple and novel, has low synthesis cost, is easy to
mass produce, and has good application value.
