The invention provides a preparation method of a
nitrogen-doped
mesoporous carbon catalyst for
wastewater degradation. The preparation method comprises the following steps:
zinc salt and
nitrogen-containing ligand at the
mole ratio of (1:1) to (5:1) are dissolved in an
organic solvent to form a homogeneous solution, 5-20 mL of
triethylamine is added into the solution dropwise, the solution is stirred for 0.5-3 h and filtered to obtain a
solid product, and the
solid product is subjected to washing,
solvent exchange and
vacuum drying to obtain
powder of
metal-organic frameworks containing
nitrogen and
zinc; the
powder of
metal-organic frameworks containing nitrogen and
zinc is heated in a
nitrogen atmosphere to be greater than or equal to 910 DEG C at the speed of 2-20 DEG C / min, and the temperature is kept for 1-12 h, and then is reduced to the
room temperature, so that the catalyst is obtained. The invention further provides the nitrogen-doped
mesoporous carbon catalyst for
wastewater degradation, which is prepared by the preparation method, and application of the catalyst to
wastewater degradation. The catalyst does not contain metals, has a
low nitrogen content and a larger specific surface area, is easy in preparation method and economic in step, and can efficiently degrade 4-
nitrophenol in wastewater.
