The electrochemical nitrate reduction by using boron-doped diamond (BDD) and copper modified boron-doped diamond (Cu-BDD) electrodes was investigated at various potentials. Nitrate reduction efficiency and the products distribution was strongly dependent on the applied potential for both electrodes. The highest nitrate reduction efficiency of 77% was obtained at −2.0 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) by using Cu-BDD. Compared with BDD electrode, nitrate reduction on Cu-BDD electrode occurred at more positive potential. Copper oxides formed on BDD surface efficiently promoted enhanced conductivity of electrode to promote electrons transfer during nitrate reduction process. Meanwhile, the catalytic ability of copper was also conductive to the nitrate transformation. Therefore, the developed Cu-BDD would be a promising approach for efficient nitrate removal from groundwater.

ABSTRACTThe influence of anodic and cathodic pre-treatment on boron doped diamond (BDD) surface for copper (Cu) electrodeposition was studied to assess Cu particle consolidation on BDD electrode. These modified electrodes were applied to study the nitrate electrochemical reduction process. The obtained results showed that the BDD surface cathodically treated presented high Cu particle density as well as even distribution on the electrode surface after the electrodeposition process. For samples anodically treated the electrodeposited Cu was dispersed with lower particle density. This behavior was attributed to a high electrode conductivity imposed by the cathodic pre-treatment leading to an increase in the BDD surface hydrogenation. Therefore, one can conclude that for electrochemical nitrate reduction the anodically treated BDD has a better reproducibility. This response is attributed to the Cu particle consolidation on BDD electrode due to the oxygen surface terminations induced by the anodic pretreatment.

ABSTRACTThis paper presents the study of the electrochemical deposition of Cu/Sn alloy nanoparticles on Boron Doped Diamond (BDD) films in order to improve their electrocatalytic activity and selectivity for application in nitrate electrochemical reduction. Cyclic voltammetry measurements evidenced the formation of Cu/Sn alloy electrodeposited on BDD electrode. The electrodeposited Cu/Sn can be better visualized by analyzing the dissolution process. By studying the dissolution peak separately, the dissolution peak of the Sn was obtained at a more positive potential, when compared with the dissolution peak of Cu. From the scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) analysis, the homogeneous distribution of the Cu/Sn alloys particles on BDD surface with grain size in nanometric scale was verified. From X-ray diffraction analysis, two Cu/Sn alloy phases (Cu41Sn11 and Cu10Sn3) were identified for the electrodeposits obtained at -0.5V and charge of 0.26 C. The electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate in 0.1 M Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer solution with pH 9 was analyzed. The BDD electrode modified with Cu/Sn alloy nanoparticles proved to potentiate the electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate.

ABSTRACTPhotoelectrodeposition of copper on boron-doped diamond films (BDD) was investigated. In this work, two different doped films were analyzed. Copper particles were deposited in the potentiostat mode and under UV irradiation. The BDD film as-grown and the BDD film modifed with Cu (Cu/BDD) on the surface were characterized by Raman Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) respectivily. These electrodes were tested as electrocatalysts for nitrate reduction in Britton-Robinson buffer solution (pH=3). Electrochemical measurements showed that the electrode with high doping level displayed the best electrocatalytic activity.

Voltammetric Detection

In this research, a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode has been explored to detect the chloroquine drug. The electrochemical performance of BDD electrode towards the irreversible anodic response of chloroquine was investigated by subjecting this electrode to the cathodic (−0.5 A cm−2 by 180 s, generating a predominantly hydrogen-terminated surface) and anodic (+0.5 A cm−2 by 30 s, oxygen-terminated surface) pretreatments. The cathodically pretreated BDD electrode ensured a better-defined anodic peak and higher current intensity. Thus, by applying the cathodically pretreated BDD electrode and square-wave voltammetry (SWV), the analytical curve was linear from 0.01 to 0.25 µmol L−1 (correlation coefficient of 0.994), with sensitivity and limit of detection of 12.2 µA L µmol−1 and 2.0 nmol−1, respectively. This nanomolar limit of detection is the lowest recorded so far with modified and unmodified electrodes.
