Cytostatic drug removal using electrochemical oxidation with BDD electrode: Degradation pathway and toxicity

Recent advances in electrocatalysts for halogenated organic pollutant degradation

“…The widely reported carbon-based catalysts include BDD, 21,100,101 graphite, 20,102 activated carbon fiber, 103 carbon nanotubes, 104,105 and granular activated carbon 26,106 . The catalytic performance of representative carbon-based anodes for HOPs degradation is presented in Table 4.…”

“…In the last few decades, extensive efforts have been devoted to the degradation of HOPs. Particularly, many processes have been developed to cleave the strong C-X bonds (X= F, Cl, Br and I) in HOPs, such as microbial degradation, 6,7 ionizing radiation, 8,9 metallic reduction, [10][11][12] photochemistry and photocatalysis, [13][14][15] sonolysis, 16,17 and electrocatalysis [18][19][20][21] . Although it is highly difficult to compare the efficiency of different degradation methods due to various target pollutants, initial concentrations, source of pollution, experimental setups and different physicochemical parameters of these processes applied, 22 electrocatalysis distinguishes itself from these methods for its easy implementation, high energy efficiency, amenability of automation and safety, versatility, high effectiveness, universal degradation capability, as well as environmental compatibility.…”

A 2.5D Electrode System Constructed of Magnetic Sb–SnO2 Particles and a PbO2 Electrode and Its Electrocatalysis Application on Acid Red G Degradation

“…Electrodes, especially the anode, are the core of the electrochemical system, therefore, numerous studies have been carried out on the various electrode materials [6][7][8]. The most common electrocatalytic anodes include titanium-based electrode (Dimension stable anode (DSA electrode), including PbO 2 [9,10], Sb-SnO 2 [11,12], IrO 2 [13] and (Dimension stable anode (DSA electrode), including PbO2 [9,10], Sb-SnO2 [11,12], IrO2 [13] and RuO2 [14] electrodes), noble metal electrode and graphite electrode (including common graphite electrode and boron doped diamond electrode [15,16]). Each electrode has some specific properties on account of its advantages and disadvantages [1].…”

“…Besides, the Fe 3 O 4 /Sb-SnO 2 particles after electrolysis for 50 h still had remarkable stability. These results indicated that the ARG solution could be adequately removed on the 2.5D electrode, providing an effective method for wastewater treatment.RuO 2 [14] electrodes), noble metal electrode and graphite electrode (including common graphite electrode and boron doped diamond electrode [15,16]). Each electrode has some specific properties on account of its advantages and disadvantages [1].…”
