  • This study investigated the treatment of acetaminophen in municipal wastewater by conventional ozonation, ozone-based advanced oxidation, ozone/UV, and the electro-peroxone process. The ozone/UV process and electro-peroxone process of electric power consumption increased 1.25 and 2.04 times, respectively, compared to the ozone process. The pseudo-steady OH radical concentration was the greatest in the electro-peroxone process and lowest in the ozone process. The specific energy consumption for TOC decomposition of the ozone/UV process and electro-peroxone process were 22.8% and 15.5% of the ozone process, respectively. Results suggest that it is advantageous in terms of degradation performance and energy consumption to use a combination of processes in municipal wastewater treatment, rather than an ozone process alone. In combination with the ozone process, the electrolysis process was found to be more advantageous than the UV process.

  • Electrochemical and photochemical techniques have been proved to be effective for the removal of organic pollutants in textile wastewater. The present study deals with degradation of synthetic textile effluents containing reactive dyes and assisting chemicals, using electro oxidation and photo catalytic treatment. The influence of various operating parameters such as dye concentration, current density, supporting electrolyte concentration and lamp intensity on TOC removal has been determined. From the present investigation it has been observed that nearly 70% of TOC removal has been recorded for electrooxidation treatment with current density 5 mA/$dm^2$, supporting electrolyte concentration of 3 g/L and in photocatalytic treatment with 250 V as optimum lamp intensity nearly 67% of TOC removal was observed. The result indicates that electro oxidation treatment is more efficient than photocatalytic treatment for dye degradation.

  • Methanol electro oxidation on the surface of carbon paste modified by $NiCl_2/6H_2O$ was studied in 1M NaOH by potentiostatic and potentiodynamic methods. Ni/C catalyst by the concentration of 5% Ni showed about twice higher electro catalytic activity than Ni metal. The amount of monolayer's on the surface of electrode is almost one order higher for Ni/C than Ni electrode. The kinetic parameters and the diffusion coefficient of methanol were derived from chronoamperometry (CA) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements.

  • In this study, an electro-catalyst of Pt nanoparticles supported by polypyrrole-functionalized graphene (Pt/PPy-reduced graphene oxide [RGO]) is reported. The Pt nanoparticles are deposited on the PPy-RGO composite by chemical reduction of H2PtCl6 using NaBH4. The presence of graphene (RGO) caused higher activity. This might have been due to increased electro-chemically accessible surface areas, increased electronic conductivity, and easier charge-transfer at polymer-electrolyte interfaces, allowing higher dispersion and utilization of the deposited Pt nano-particles. Microstructure, morphology and crystallinity of the synthesized materials were investigated using X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed successful deposition of Pt nano-particles, with crystallite size of about 2.7 nm, on the PPy-RGO support film. Catalytic activity for methanol electro-oxidation in fuel cells was investigated using cyclic voltammetry. The fundamental electrochemical test results indicated that the electro-catalytic activity, for methanol oxidation, of the Pt/PPy-RGO combination was much better than for commercial catalyst.

  • A highly porous Ni@MIL-101catalyst for urea oxidation was synthesized by anchoring Ni into a Cr-based metal-organic framework, MIL-101, particles. The morphology, structure, and composition of as synthesized Ni@MIL-101 catalysts were characterized by X-Ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The electro-catalytic activity of the Ni@MIL-101catalysts towards urea oxidation was investigated using cyclic voltammetry. It was found that the structure of Ni@MIL-101 retained that of the parent MIL-101, featuring a high BET surface area of $916m^2g^{-1}$, and thus excellent electro-catalytic activity for urea oxidation. A $urea/H_2O_2$ fuel cell with Ni@MIL-101 as anode material exhibited an excellent performance with maximum power density of $8.7mWcm^{-2}$ with an open circuit voltage of 0.7 V. Thus, this work shows that the highly porous three-dimensional Ni@MIL-101 catalysts can be used for urea oxidation and as an efficient anode material for urea fuel cells.

  • 현재 하수종말처리장은 질소와 인의 방류수 수질기준 강화로 생물학적 처리 후 약품주입으로 잔류인의 처리를 하고 있는 실정에서 방류수 수질기준은 확보가 가능하나, 약품주입량의 과다와 발생되는 슬러지의 증대 및 발생슬러지의 탈수효율 저하로 슬러지처리과정에서 또 다른 문제가 발생하여 처리에 대한 신뢰성이 결여되어 있는 실정이다. 그러므로 본 연구는 기존 하수종말처리장에서 발생하고 있는 문제에 대하여 최소의 반응시간과 슬러지 발생량의 최소화를 토대로 생물학적 고도처리를 적용한 하수처리장에서 방류수 수질기준의 강화에 따라 생물학적 처리로 확보하기 어려운 안정적 처리방식과 처리수질변동에 대한 적응 및 질소와 인의 처리기준을 맞추기 위하여 기존 하수처리 방식에 Electro Coagulation and Oxidation system을 적용한 결과 다음과 같다. 1) Al-SUS(stainless steel)로 배치한 전극에서 반응시간대와 상관없이 $15mA/cm^2$의 전류밀도에서 BOD, TN 및 TP의 처리효율이 $5mA/cm^2$에서의 처리효율보다 높게 나타났으나, 전류밀도 $10mA/cm^2$ 이상만을 유지하여도 TP의 경우 대부분 0.1 mg/L 정도로 처리가 가능하며, 특히, 반응시간을 10 min으로 유지할 경우 TP농도는 전류밀도와 상관없이 0.06 mg/L 이하로 방류수 수질기준 0.1 mg/L 이하를 유지할 수 있었다. 2) TP농도의 변화는 전류밀도의 변화에 영향을 크게 받지 않으며, 오히려 반응시간에 따라 처리수의 농도가 변화하는 것으로 전기응집반응의 경우 수초~수분이 요구되나 전기산화와 동시에 반응이 일어나야 하므로 적절한 전기응집산화의 반응시간은 10 min 이상이 요구되는 것으로 연구되었다. 3) 결과적으로 본 연구에서 생활하수의 TN 및 TP처리를 위한 전기응집산화공정의 경제적인 전류밀도는 $15mA/cm^2$이하, 반응시간은 10 min을 유지하는 것이 적절한 것으로 연구되었다.

  • The electrocatalytic oxidative behavior of an antiarrhythmic drug, procainamide hydrochloride (PAH) at the gold electrode surface has been examined using different voltammetric methods like cyclic, linear-sweep and differential pulse voltammetry. Voltammograms obtained in this study reveal that the electrode exhibit excellent electrocatalytic activity towards oxidation of the drug. The parameters that can affect the peak current at different pH, scan rate and concentration were evaluated. The number of electrons transferred was calculated. The current displayed a wide linear response ranging from 0.5 to $30.0{\mu}M$ with a limit of detection of 56.4 nM. The impact of potential interfering agents was also studied. The electrode displayed wide advantages such as simple sample preparation, appreciable repeatability, reproducibility and also high sensitivity. Furthermore, the feasibility of the proposed method was successfully demonstrated by determining PAH in the spiked human biological sample.

  • The study presents kinetics of degradation and mineralization of an anti-epileptic drug Lamotrigine (LAM) in the aqueous matrix by electrochemical advanced oxidation process (EAOP) on Ti/DSA (Ta2O5-Ir2O5) and Stainless Steel (SS) anodes using sodium sulphate as supporting electrolyte. On both the anodes, kinetic behaviour was pseudo-first-order for degradation as well as mineralization of LAM. On Ti/DSA anode, maximum LAM degradation of 75.42% was observed at an associated specific charge of 3.1 (Ah/litre) at a current density of 1.38 mA/cm2 and 100 ppm Na2SO4 concentration. Maximum mineralization attained was 44.83% at an associated specific charge of 3.1 (Ah/litre) at a current density of 1.38 mA/cm2 and 50 ppm concentration of Na2SO4 with energy consumption of 2942.71 kWh/kgTOC. Under identical conditions on SS anode, a maximum of 98.92% LAM degradation was marked after a specific charge (Q) of 3.1 (Ah/litre) at a current density of 1.38 mA/cm2 and 100 ppm concentration of Na2SO4. Maximum LAM mineralization on SS anode was 98.53%, marked at a specific charge of 3.1 (Ah/litre) at a current density of 1.38 mA/cm2 and 75 ppm concentration of Na2SO4, with energy consumption of 1312.17 kWh/kgTOC. Higher Mineralization Current Efficiency (MCE) values were attained for EAOP on SS anode for both degradation and mineralization due to occurrence of combined electro-oxidation and electro-coagulation process in comparison to EAOP on Ti/DSA anode due to occurrence of lone electro-oxidation process.

  • Copper-dimethylglyoxime complex (CuDMG) modified Copper electrode (Cu/CuDMG) showed a catalytic activity towards cyclohexanol oxidation in NaOH solution. The modified electrode prepared by the dimethylglyoxime anodic deposition on Cu electrode in the solution contained 0.20 M $NH_4Cl\;+\;NH_4OH\;(pH\;9.50)\;and\;1\;{\times}\;10^{-4}$ M dimethylglyoxime. The modified electrode conditioned by potential recycling in a potential range of -900${\sim}$900 mV vs. Ag/AgCl by cyclic voltammetry in alkaline medium (1 M NaOH). The results show that the CuDMG film on the electrode behaves as an efficient catalyst for the electro-oxidation of cyclohexanol in alkaline medium via Cu (III) species formed on the electrode.
