Electrochemical Incineration of Glucose as a Model Organic Substrate. II. Role of Active Chlorine Mediation (original) (raw)

The study investigates the electrochemical incineration of glucose using various anode materials to assess the efficiency and effectiveness in mineralizing organic substrates. The focus is on the anodic oxidation process, where glucose acts as a model organic compound that contributes significantly to chemical oxygen demand (COD) in food industry effluents. Experiments reveal the influences of current density, temperature, and concentration on the oxidation process, with results indicating the role of active chlorine mediation in improving mineralization outcomes.
