Photoelectrocatalytic oxidation of uric acid on a novel ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complex modified ZnO electrode for photo-stimulated fuel cells

Performance and Evaluation of Electro-Oxidation Treatment of Human Urine Metabolite Uric Acid Using Response Surface Methodology

“…Electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs), have come-up in recent years as a promising technology for degrading of a wide variety of pollutants. [17][18][19][20] Electro-oxidation (EO) process is cost effective and eco-friendly technique 21,22 which offers better removal efficiencies as compared to other processes. The effectiveness of the process and its feasibility at a commercial level largely depend upon the innovation of new electrodes material which is capable of generating a lot of strong oxidizing agents such as hydroxyl radicals OH• and various chlorooxidant species.…”
