The electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs) are a class of technologies that hold promise for wastewater remediation. In this study, a novel EAOP system was developed using a FeOCl/O-CNTs/NF cathode and an IrO2/Ti anode, which enabled simultaneous electro-Fenton and anodic oxidation reactions. The FeOCl/O-CNTs/NF cathode exhibited high H2O2 production rate and excellent catalytic performance, resulting in efficient and cost-effective organic contaminant remediation.
Electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs) are a class of promising technologies for wastewater remediation. The challenge of EAOPs is the in situ generation and activation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to evolve reactive oxygen species (ROS) simultaneously with low energy consumption and high performances. In this work, we designed an EAOP system, coupling FeOCl nanoparticles on oxygen-enriched carbon nanotubes (O-CNTs) and a nickel foam (FeOCl/O-CNTs/NF) cathode for electro-Fenton (EF) reactions and an IrO2/Ti anode for anodic oxidation (AO) simultaneously. Specifically, the defects and oxygen functional groups on O-CNTs introduced by a modified Hummers' method could induce the charge redistribution of O-CNTs for outstanding two-electron oxygen-reduction-reaction performances (H2O2 selectivity of 73%) and provide more anchoring sites for the loading of active cocatalyst nanoparticles. Thus, abundant FeOCl nanoparticles were successfully loaded onto O-CNTs. Such a FeOCl/O-CNTs/NF cathode exhibited a high H2O2 production rate of 95 mmol gcat(-1) h(-1) because of the improved exposure of catalytic active sites supported on nickel foam to attain a large specific surface area. center dot OH was generated from H2O2 via both heterogeneous and homogeneous EF processes induced by the FeOCl/OCNTs/NF cathode and leached ferrous ions accordingly. Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) was completely removed within 30 min at a low specific energy consumption of 0.024 kWh g(-1) SMX-1. Thus, the simultaneous FeOCl/O-CNTs/NF-based EF system and AO provide an efficient and cost-effective technology for organic contaminant remediation.
