technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wastewater treatment, in particular to a device and method for coupling an electrocatalytic membrane and a three-dimensional electrode to treat refractory wastewater. Background technique [0002] The chemical structure of refractory pollutants is stable, and most of them have certain biological toxicity. They will accumulate in the environment and enrich in organisms, eventually endangering human beings. Due to the biological toxicity of refractory pollutants, the effect of traditional biological treatment technology is poor, and advanced oxidation technology, because it can generate free radicals with strong oxidizing ability, has unique advantages in the treatment of refractory pollutants. [0003] Electrocatalytic membrane technology is one of the advanced oxidation technologies. It combines electrochemical catalytic oxidation with membrane filtration.

[0008] The disadvantages of a method of using titanium dioxide to make electrode materials for wastewater treatment in the above-mentioned prior art are: the preparation process of titanium dioxide film electrodes is complicated, the cost is high, and the ratio of the specific surface area with electroactivity to the total specific surface area Low (2% ~ 8%), therefore, there are still some difficulties in the practical application of this titanium oxide film electrode

[0009] In addition, most catalytic oxidation processes use the anode to react, and a few use the electron donating effect of the cathode (CN201310279516.X, CN201310311041.8), but basically use the effect of a single electrode, and the other electrode is used as an auxiliary electrode. Give full play to the role of auxiliary electrodes

In the presence of oxygen, the cathode will undergo a reduction reaction of oxygen to generate hydrogen peroxide when it is energized. Hydrogen peroxide is also an oxidizing substance that can assist in the oxidation of pollutants in water, but the traditional two-dimensional electrode has a mass transfer effect. Poor and low current efficiency
