The paper evaluates concentration of hydrogen peroxide produced by a novel pin-hole plasma source in electrolyte solutions with or without gas addition. An effective production rate of hydrogen peroxide is decreased by the increased argon as well as oxygen flow rate through the plasma region. Further, it is enhanced by higher solution conductivity while it is decreased in the strongly basic conditions with the highest pH values.

This study investigates the removal efficiency of PVA from aqueous solutions using UV irradiation in combination with the production of electrogenerated hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at a polyacrylonitrile-based activated carbon fiber (ACF) cathode. Three cathode materials (i.e., platinum, graphite, and ACF) were fed with oxygen and used for the electrogeneration of H2O2. The amount of electrogenerated H2O2produced using the ACF cathode was five times greater than that generated using the graphite cathode and nearly 24 times greater than that from platinum cathode. Several parameters were evaluated to characterize the H2O2electrogeneration, such as current density, oxygen flow rate, solution pH, and the supporting electrolyte used. The optimum current density, oxygen flow rate, solution pH, and supporting electrolyte composition were found to be 10 mA cm−2, 500 cm3 min−1, pH 3, and Na2SO4, respectively. The PVA removal efficiencies were achieved under these conditions 3%, 16%, and 86% using UV, H2O2electrogeneration, and UV/H2O2electrogeneration, respectively. A UV light intensity of 0.6 mW cm−2was found to produce optimal PVA removal efficiency in the present study. A simple kinetic model was proposed which confirmed pseudo-first-order reaction. Reaction rate constant (kap) was found to depend on the UV light intensity.
