Electro-Fenton (EF) and peroxyelectrocoagulation (PEC) processes were investigated to mineralize 10 mg L−1 erythromycin from ultrapure water, evaluating the influence of anode material (BDD Fe), current density (janode) (5 mA cm−2 cm−2), oxygen flowrate injected cathode (0.8 L min−1 O2 2.0 O2) pH (2.8, 5.0 7.0) on process efficiency electricity costs. 70% mineralization was reached after applyi...

A novel Pd-based electro-Fenton (E-Fenton) process has recently been developed to transform organic contaminants in groundwater. However, it only produces H2O2 and requires addition of Fe(2+). In this study, an innovative approach is developed to effectively regulate the generation of Fe(2+) from an iron cathode in a three-electrode system in addition to H2O2 production. The Fe(2+) is then used...

The degradation and mineralization of the drug norfloxacin (NFX) has been assessed in a model solution, containing 15 mM NaCl +45 Na2SO4 at pH 3.0, using flow plant with an FM01-LC filter-press reactor equipped Ti|Ir-Sn-Ru oxides anode to electrogenerate HClO from Cl− oxidation stainless-steel cathode. Unexpectedly, anodic active chlorine (AO-HClO) outperformed electro-Fenton (EF-HClO), photoel...

The treatment of hospital wastewater is very complex, so treating polluted human urine a significant challenge. Here, we tested novel MMO-Ti/RuO2IrO2 electrode to reduce the ecotoxicity risk urines contaminated with antibiotics. This was used as anode in electro-Fenton (EF) and photoelectro-Fenton (PhEF) processes. results were compared those obtained using boron-doped diamond (BDD) anode, well...

This study focused on the effects of electro-oxidation combined with electro-Fenton process using boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes degradation biorefractory food colorant caramel. Aqueous solutions containing Caramel Class IV, III and Acid Orange 7 were comparatively treated by electrochemical advanced oxidation processes, including (EO), (EF) (EO + EF). The experiments performed in a stirr...

Enzyme immobilization is necessary process to improve the bioactivity and stability of biocatalyst. In this study, glucose oxidase (GOx) enzyme was immobilized on plasma-treated fibrous carbon felt as a textile carrier produce heterogeneous catalyst. Genipin, naturally occurring crosslinker, that has less cytotoxicity than conventional crosslinkers, used in process. UV-Vis FTIR spectra confirme...
