AbstractElectrochemical oxidation of pretreated distillery wastewater was performed using a boron doped diamond anode (BDD). The role of direct oxidation of organic matter was assessed with experiments of linear sweep voltammetry, noting that the deactivation of the electrode surface occurs in the region of potentials below oxygen evolution. Then, galvanostatic bulk electrolyses were conducted during 4 hours at current densities (20 mAcm

Copper nanoparticles frequently exhibit unique electrocatalytic activity for the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide. However, the synthesis of Cu nanoparticles in aqueous systems remains rare. Herein, we report the synthesis of copper nanoparticles by using a zinc(II) porphyrin-based photocatalytic method in the presence of polyacrylic acid sodium salt (PAA) in water under visible light irradiation, leading to a series of Cu nanoparticles with relatively small average sizes ranging from 69 to 97 nm. PAA molecules adsorbed on Cu nanoparticles were simply removed by washing with copious amount of water. The purified Cu nanoparticles show some activity toward the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide as evidenced by linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and gas chromatography (GC).

A novel voltammetric assay for captopril (CAP) determination by using an electrochemically pretreated pencil graphite electrode (PGE*) is presented. The electrochemical oxidation reaction of CAP was investigated with PGE* by using cyclic voltammetry and linear sweep voltammetry techniques. CAP was electrochemically inactive at the non-pretreated pencil graphite electrode surface, while a sharp anodic wave with an anodic peak potential at around 200 mV resulted by using the PGE*. According to kinetic studies upon the electrode behavior, a new reaction mechanism for electrochemical oxidation of captopril is proposed. The sensor was examined as a selective, simple and precise new electrochemical disposable electrode for the determination of CAP in pharmaceutical samples in complex medical cases associated with sleep apnea, with good results.

Electrochemical oxidation of methyl substituted aniline (anisidine) has been done on both gold and platinum electrode using cyclic voltammetry. The results were compared in different supporting electrolytes such as KCl, KNO3, H2SO4, HCl. Effect of pH was observed on electrochemical oxidation of o- & p- anisidine at gold and platinum electrode. During various scan single oxidation peak during first forward scan with no corresponding cathodic peak was obtained while a new anodic cathodic couple peak appears in subsequent scan obtained. Kinetic parameters like heterogeneous rate constant, transfer co-efficient and diffusion co-efficient were also calculated. A sensitive method was developed for estimation of micro quantities of anisidine by linear sweep voltammetry and hydrodynamic voltammetry.Int J Appl Sci Biotechnol, Vol 3(2): 267-271 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ijasbt.v3i2.12615

The electrochemical reduction of HCl dissolved in LiCl-KCl eutectic has been studied by linear sweep voltammetry and chronopotentiometry at a glassy carbon electrode. The dissolved HCl is found to be completely dissociated into protons and chloride ions, and the cathodic evolution of hydrogen proceeds by the two-step mechanism ���������������������������� H+ + e ↔ H ���������������������������� H + H ↔ H2 The charge-transfer step is reversible and faster than the hydrogen atom combination reaction.

The electrooxidation of luminol in alkaline solutions in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (I) was studied by linear sweep voltammetry on fixed and vibrating platinum electrodes. The presence of I in low concentrations (below the critical micellar concentration) brings about aggregation of the luminol, which is manifested by an increase in the anodic peak height and its shift towards lower potentials. In micellar solutions the peak height decreases owing to the slower diffusion of the bulkier micelles, the shift to lower potentials being preserved. The light-voltage curves correspond with the voltammetric curves, exhibiting identical shifts of the peak potentials in dependence on the concentration of the surfactant.
