Electrochemical oxidation of dyes on oxide lead anode with the involvement of active oxygen species

详细

Kinetics and selectivity of oxidation of dyes (Methyl Orange and Chrome Dark Blue) on a lead dioxide (Pb/PbO₂) anode at various current densities, substrate concentrations, and pH values with the use of various active oxygen species was studied. It was shown that the electrochemical oxidation of dyes on the Pb/PbO₂ anode occurs rather effectively under the chosen conditions. The mineralization efficiency in 5 h was 51 to 89.5 and 93 to 100% for, respectively, Methyl Orange and Chrome Dark Blue, depending on the electrolysis conditions.
