Kinetic modelling of the electrochemical mineralization of organic pollutants for wastewater treatment
Abstract: The electrochemical mineralization of organic pollutants is a new technology for treatment of dilute wastewater (COD < 5 g L−1). In this method, use of the electrical energy can produce complete oxidation of pollutants on high oxidation power anodes. An ideal anode for this type of treatment is a boron-doped diamond electrode (BDD) characterized by a high reactivity towards oxidation of organics. In the present work kinetic aspects of organic mineralization is discussed. The proposed theoretical kinetic model on boron-doped diamond anodes is in excellent agreement with experimental results. In addition economic aspects of electrochemical organic mineralization are reported.
The importance of electrode material in environmental electrochemistry: Formation and reactivity of free hydroxyl radicals on boron-doped diamond electrodes
TL;DR: In this paper, a model describing the hydroxyl radical (HO) concentration profile at the boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode, in the presence and absence of organic compounds, is presented.

Direct and mediated electrochemical oxidation of ammonia on boron-doped diamond electrode
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed to use active free chlorine to remove ammonia from an acidic solution, while the formation of by-products such as chlorate and possibly perchlorate is minimized.
