Dye wastewater has been becoming the focus of environmental protection and scientific research because of its serious harm to the environment and living organisms. A supported nano-porous anode alumina-NiO (nano-PAA-NiO) photocatalyst was prepared by calcining nano-PAA-NiCl₂ composite which was grown with a self-organization method. Its morphology and composition were investigated by means of SEM, EDS, and XRD. The specific surface area of nano-PAA-NiO was characterized with the N₂ adsorption and desorption isotherms. The band gap was calculated to be 3.0 eV with the UV–Vis absorption spectra. The species and optical properties of nano-PAA-NiO were investigated by FT-IR spectra and photoluminescence spectra. With the nano-PAA-NiO photocatalyst, the degradation rates of methyl orange (MO) were 94.3% under the optimum conditions, and it could reach 82% when the catalyst was reused for the third time. In addition, the photocatalytic mechanism was proposed, and the reactions followed the Langmuir–Hinshelwood model. The nano-PAA-NiO composite has an excellent effect for organic dye wastewater treatment and practical prospects in environmental protection.
