The invention provides a catalyst prepared from
red mud for removing a
volatile organic compound and a preparation method of the catalyst. The method comprises the following steps that 1, acid is added in the
red mud, acidolysis leaching is conducted, first
slurry is obtained after acidolysis, the first
slurry is acidic, the first
slurry is subjected to
ageing,
solid-liquid separation is conducted, and then a
solid and separation liquid are obtained; 2, the pH of the separation liquid in step 1 is adjusted to be larger than or equal to 8.5, second slurry is obtained, the second slurry is subjected to
solid-liquid separation to take a solid, and the obtained solid is an iron,
titanium and aluminum composite precursor; 3, the iron,
titanium and aluminum composite precursor obtained in step 2is calcined to obtain an iron,
titanium and aluminum catalyst. In step 3, the iron, titanium and aluminum composite precursor serves as a carrier,
noble metal is loaded on the iron, titanium and aluminum composite precursor, and a
noble metal / iron, titanium and aluminum catalyst can be obtained. According to the preparation method, the steps are simple, high-value utilization of the
red mud is achieved, and a wide industrial application prospect is achieved.
