Electrochemical Oxidation of 4-Chlorophenol for Wastewater Treatment: Definition of Normalized Current Efficiency (φ)
Open accessAbstract
The electrochemical behavior of lead dioxide and synthetic boron-doped diamond thin film electrodes (BDDs) has been studied in acid media containing 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) by bulk electrolysis under different experimental conditions. In order to quantify the electrochemical activity of a given electrode, for the electrochemical oxidation of organic compounds (4-CP), the current efficiency of the anodic oxidation has been normalized taking into consideration mass-transport limitations. The normalized current efficiency (ϕ) has been defined as the ratio between the current efficiency of the investigated anode to the current efficiency of an ideal anode which has a very fast oxidation rate, resulting in a complete combustion of organics to carbon dioxide. The results have shown that even if the complete combustion of 4-chlorophenol has been achieved at both lead dioxide and boron-doped diamond anodes, the latter give higher ϕ. The difference in reactivity of the electrogenerated hydroxyl radicals on the anode surface, has been proposed to explain the high ϕ values obtained using boron-doped diamond anodes. © 2001 The Electrochemical Society.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
