Evaluating tetracycline degradation pathway and intermediate toxicity during the electrochemical oxidation over a Ti/Ti4O7 anode

Electrochemical oxidation of sulfamethoxazole using Ti/SnO2-Sb/Co-PbO2 electrode through ANN-PSO

“…In the process of EO, the current density plays a very important role as it determines the removal rate of pollutants by controlling electron transport and the generation of reactive oxidants. 7,15,19,20 The current density was variously set to 1, 5, 10, 15 and 20 mA cm -2 , and the removal efficiency of SMX during the degradation at each current density is shown in Fig. 1.…”

“…The other group is called the test network and was evaluated with the remaining 15 data sets. Different hidden layer nodes (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) were selected to establish a network and determine the optimal number of neurons by training the MSE for training the network using different neuron number conditions. The relationship between the MSE and the number of neurons is illustrated in Fig.…”

“…[15][16][17][18][19] EO is a thoroughly studied advanced oxidation process (AOP) for all kinds of wastewater applications, with most studies focused on the anode material, operating factors and design of the EO reactor. [18][19][20][21] The performance of EO is highly dependent on the activity and stability of the anode. Various anodes such as, PbO 2 , dimensionally stable anodes, and boron-doped diamond (BDD) have shown outstanding removal efficiency for SMX.…”

Synthesis and characterization of a novel CNT-FeNi3/DFNS/Cu(ii) magnetic nanocomposite for the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline in wastewater

“…The traditional methods for the detection of TC involve chromatographic, 11 spectroscopic, 10 and microbial 9 measurements, which are inef-cient since they are time consuming, inaccurate and require prototype pre-tests that ultimately increase the overall cost. [12][13][14][15] The typical techniques for the removal of tetracycline include biological degradation, ion exchange, degradation by photocatalysis, and membrane ltration and adsorption. 16 Additionally, advanced oxidation processes, photo-electrocatalysis, reduction by zero iron nanoparticles, use of pulse radionuclides and carbon nanotubes, ozonation with ultrasonic and light treatment, and oxidation using Fe-Mn dual oxides have been reported.…”

Anti-corrosion porous RuO2/NbC anodes for the electrochemical oxidation of phenol

“…Electrochemical methods are frequently used to treat wastewater that contains refractory organic compounds and offer many distinct advantages, such as environmental compatibility and high efficiency. [1][2][3][4][5][6] It has been determined that the electrochemical treatment of wastewater depends on a wide variety of factors, including anode materials, reaction conditions and waste characteristics.…”
