Free-standing membrane incorporating single-atom catalysts for ultrafast electroreduction of low-concentration nitrate.

ABSTRACT: The release of wastewaters containing relatively low levels of nitrate (NO₃^-) results in sufficient contamination to induce harmful algal blooms and to elevate drinking water NO₃^- concentrations to potentially hazardous levels. In particular, the facile triggering of algal blooms by ultra-low concentrations of NO₃^- necessitates the development of efficient methods for NO₃^- destruction. However, promising electrochemical methods suffer from weak mass transport under low reactant concentrations, resulting in long treatment times (on the order of hours) for complete NO₃^- destruction. In this study, we present flow-through electrofiltration via an electrified membrane incorporating non
