Electrochemical Oxidation of Organic Pollutants in Aqueous Solution Using a Ti₄O₇ Particle Anode.

ABSTRACT: Anodes based on substoichiometric titanium oxide (Ti₄O₇) are among the most effective for the anodic oxidation of organic pollutants in aqueous solutions. Such electrodes can be made in the form of semipermeable porous structures called reactive electrochemical membranes (REMs). Recent work has shown that REMs with large pore sizes (0.5-2 mm) are highly efficient (comparable or superior to boron-doped diamond (BDD) anodes) and can be used to oxidize a wide range of contaminants. In this work, for the first time, a Ti₄O₇ particle anode (with a granule size of 1-3 mm and forming pores of 0.2-1 mm) was used for the oxidation of benzoic, maleic and oxalic acids and hydroquinone in aqueous solutions with an initial COD of 600 mg/L. The results demonst
