Manganese-Containing Mixed Oxide Electrodes as Anode Materials for Degradation of Model Organic Pollutants

Mixed oxide thin film electrodes have been prepared by thermal decomposition from alcoholic solution on Pt substrate. In particular, three different anodes have been obtained by co-deposition of Ru (Ruthenium) and Mn (Manganese) oxides, Ru, Mn and Cu (Copper) oxides and co-deposition of Ru, Mn and C...

description Mixed oxide thin film electrodes have been prepared by thermal decomposition from alcoholic solution on Pt substrate. In particular, three different anodes have been obtained by co-deposition of Ru (Ruthenium) and Mn (Manganese) oxides, Ru, Mn and Cu (Copper) oxides and co-deposition of Ru, Mn and Co (Cobalt) oxides. The electrochemical behaviour of the prepared electrodes was evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization curves and cyclic voltammetry tests. We also tested and compared their oxidizing ability in the degradation of aqueous solutions containing methyl orange as model compound and small amount of chloride. Galvanostatic experiments were conducted in a membrane-free reactor. The treatment extent was assessed by detection of color and TOC decay. The electrogeneration of active chlorine, chlorate and perchlorate was also monitored. The preliminary results show that ternary oxides coated electrodes exhibit enhanced electrocatalytic activity without producing undesired chlorinated by-products.
