Ultra-fast synthesis of Ti/Ru0.3Ti0.7O2 anodes with superior electrochemical properties using an ionic liquid and laser calcination

Scale-up of Ru-based mesh anodes for the degradation of synthetic hospital wastewater

“…It is observed in the SEM images (Figure 1) that both surfaces under study have similar morphologies with homogeneous and compact film, which is an advantage of caused by the rapid heating/cooling rate of the method [31]. It is still possible to observe the presence of some cracks, which is typically attributed to the difference in the coefficients of thermal expansion of the substrate and the formed film [32]. Finally, the morphology of both anodes are similar, where it can be concluded that the increase in size and changes in form of the substrate does not modify the morphology of the deposited film.…”

Effects of different pretreatments on Ti/RuO2-TiO2 anode

“…The main process of preparing titanium anode is to coat the pre-treated titanium plate surface with a prepared coating solution, followed by sintering to form a conductive titanium plate surface coating. Currently, the surface coating of titanium anode typically consists of metal oxides such as RuO 2 , IrO 2 , Ta 2 O 5 , and TiO 2 [7][8][9][10]. Research by Comninellis [11] has shown that the performance of titanium anode depends not only on highly active rare noble metal oxides or inert metal oxides, but also on their synergistic effects to improve and enhance electrode performance.…”

Electrochemical Degradation of Diuron by Anodic Oxidation on a Commercial Ru0.3Ti0.7O2 Anode in a Sulfate Medium

“…Nevertheless, BDD anodes possess two primary counterparts: (i) a significant initial investment [17]; (ii) the formation of perchlorate in the presence of chloride [18,19]. These BDD shortcomings have stimulated the development and application of MMO to the degradation of refractory pollutants as an alternative anode [20][21][22][23].…”
