The Ti/SnO2-Sb/Gd-PbO2 anode showed the best performance in electrochemical degradation of triclosan in human urine, with a degradation mechanism involving ether-bond cleavage, hydroxylation, cyclization, dehydrogenation and carboxylation. Energy consumption ranged from 4.5 to 47.8 Wh L-1, indicating that electrochemical oxidation is a feasible and energy-saving technique for triclosan removal.
Electrochemical degradation of triclosan in human urine was firstly studied by using Ti/SnO2-Sb/PbO2 anode doped with rare-earth elements. The results indicated that the Ti/SnO2-Sb/Gd-PbO2 anode demonstrated the best performance with the degradation rate constants being 0.095 min(-1) in fresh urine and 0.045 min-1 in hydrolyzed urine at a current density of 10 mA cm(-2). The electrochemical degradation was improved in the presence of phosphate and chloride, while the degradation was obviously inhibited by urea, bicarbonate and ammonia. Degradation mechanism mainly involved ether-bond cleavage, hydroxylation, cyclization, dehydrogenation and carboxylation. Quantitative structure-activity relationship model showed that ecological risks of cyclization products to fish, daphnid and green algae was higher than the parent compound, implying that the potential risks to aquatic organism should not be ignored before triclosan mineralized completely. Energy consumption for 90% triclosan degradation ranged from 4.5 to 47.8 Wh L-1, and the consumption increased along with the hydrolysis of urine. The results indicate that electrochemical oxidation is a feasible and energy-saving technique to effectively remove triclosan from human urine. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
