Descrição
Resumo:Anodic oxidation is a type of advanced oxidative electrochemical process, in which it allows the degradation and mineralization of organic compounds. This mineralization occurs preferably in two ways. The first occurs due to the transfer of charge directly on the surface of the anode and the second occurs through indirect oxidation through the generation of strongly oxidizing species, which can be physically adsorbed in the form of hydroxyl (OH) radicals or chemically adsorbed, On the surface of the electrode. A higher rate of treatment is obtained when the radicals are physically adsorbed, the reactions that allow the degradation of the organic substrate of interest. In the literature, two catalytic materials stand out for the degradation and mineralization of organic compounds, such as boron doped diamond (DDB) and platinum (Pt) electrodes. But both have some limitations that prevent so the electrochemical technology on an industrial scale. Therefore, many researchers have devoted great efforts to identify more affordable electrodic materials as an alternative to reduce the initial investment and operating costs. This is the case of dimensional stable anodes and other metal anodes. In this context, tin-based alloys were considered as an interesting alternative, using them as anodes, for the anodic oxidation process. Therefore, in this work, an anode formed by a Sn-Cu Sb alloy (Babbitt) was synthesized from the cold gas spray technology to evaluate its potential application for electrochemical treatments, such as a new cheap and stable anode material. The electrocatalytic properties of the synthesized anode were tested to reduce the decolorization and chemical oxygen demand (COD) of azido blue Acid 29. Moreover, the evolution of nitrogenous inorganic species and carboxylic acids generated by the breakdown of the molecule by oxidation was evaluated by means of HPLC analysis.
