1. A method for preparing a porous carbon catalyst loaded with a transition metal sulfide based on high-sulfur petroleum coke, comprising:
(1) preparing an in-situ activated precursor:
mixing a high-sulfur petroleum coke having a content of sulfur of 3-10 wt % with a transition metal salt in an ethanol aqueous solution thoroughly, and then evaporating and drying to obtain the in-situ activated precursor;
the transition metal of the salt is nickel or niobium;
(2) destabilizing bulk sulfur:
grinding and mixing the in-situ activated precursor obtained from step (1) with an alkaline activator in a mass ratio of the alkaline activator to the high-sulfur petroleum coke of (1-5):(1-2), followed by placement in a tube furnace, heating from room temperature to a specified temperature of 600-800° C. at a controlled rate under an argon inert atmosphere, bulk sulfur is destabilized under the joint action of the specified temperature and alkaline activator;
the alkaline activator is potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide;
(3) conducting an in-situ the transition metal-sulfur bonding reaction:
maintaining the specified temperature from step (2), switching the argon atmosphere to hydrogen at a flow rate of 10-60 mL/min, and conducting the in-situ the transition metal-sulfur bonding reaction for 1-2 hours, followed by cooling down to room temperature under an argon atmosphere;
(4) washing and drying:
washing the product obtained from step (3) with a washing solution, drying and grinding to obtain the porous carbon catalyst loaded with the transition metal sulfide based on high-sulfur petroleum coke.
