Contact Glow Discharge Electrolysis: Effect of Electrolyte Conductivity on Discharge Voltage

Abstract: Contact glow discharge electrolysis (CGDE) can be exploited in environmental chemistry for the degradation of pollutants in wastewater. This study focuses on the employment of cheap materials (e.g., steel and tungsten) as electrodes for experiments of CGDE conducted in electrochemical cells with variable electrolytic composition. A clear correlation between breakdown voltage (VB)/discharge (or midpoint) voltage (VD) and the conductivity of the electrolyte is shown. Regardless of the chemical nature of the iono… Show more

“…The reverse voltage point is obtained by the relationship that the higher the conductivity of the solution, the lower the voltage of the turning point. This is like what was stated by previous researchers [7,12]. High conductivity makes the current density also high at the same voltage and makes the energy dissipation at the anode higher.…”

“…Based on the obtained results, the j-U characteristics are divided into four different stages; stage A (50-350 V), stage B (400 V), stage C (400-500 V), and stage D (500-600 V). [61][62][63] In stage A, the current density increases as a function of the applied voltage, which complies with Ohm's law and Faraday's law of electrolysis. During this stage, the evolution of the gaseous envelope was observed around the electrode/electrolyte interface, and the intensity of the gaseous envelope gradually increased with increasing the voltage, as shown in Figure 2b.…”
