Study on Degradation of Traditional Chinese Medicine Wastewater with Cu/Cu₂O Composite Photocatalyst

Abstract:

s. This paper uses alcohol thermal method, takes the mixed solution of N,N-two DMF and ethanol as solvent, in particular concentration of copper nitrate, prepares composite photocatalyst Cu/Cu₂O by control of temperature, then investigates the composite with XRD. The experimental results show that, the catalyst prepared has good dispersing, its average particle size is 7.96nm, and Cu comes into the Cu₂O lattice conducted the corresponding lattice distortions. In the 40W tungsten lamp irradiation, the photocatalyst can achieve effective degradation of traditional Chinese medicine wastewater, whose degradation rate can reach 97.3% and the COD removal rate can reach 95.6%.
