The application relates to a magnetic
cobalt-aluminum layered double
hydroxide composite catalyst, a preparation method thereof and application of the catalyst in degradation of pesticides, and belongs to the field of environmental catalytic materials and
water treatment technologies. The catalyst is composed of Fe3O4
superparamagnetic nanoparticles and Co5Al layered double
hydroxide.
Aluminum nitrate and
cobalt nitrate are added into deionized water, then
ammonium fluoride,
urea and Fe3O4
superparamagnetic nanoparticles are added and
ultrasonic dispersion is carried out, the obtained
mixed solution is subjected to
hydrothermal reaction, and after cooling, washing and
drying, the catalyst is obtained. When used, the catalyst is added into water containing pesticides, peroxymonosulfate is added for oscillation reaction, and finally the catalyst is separated through an external
magnetic field. The catalyst can be quickly separated and recovered through an external
magnetic field, has good repeated use performance, good
chemical stability and
structural stability, high catalytic activity and strong anti-interference ability. The catalytic
system reaction mechanism of the application is clear, and the free radical
route is dominant, so that the degradation thoroughness and reliability are ensured.
