Abstract
Carbon materials are widely used as catalysts in electrocatalytic oxidative (EO) degradation of wastewater due to their large specific surface area and low cost. Carbon materials can also be used as catalyst carriers for EO reactions due to their ease of functionalization with other heteroatoms and metals/metal oxides. To improve the catalytic activity and current efficiency of carbon materials, modifying the structural and physicochemical properties of conventional carbon materials are common improvement method. This review briefly outlines the recent research progress of carbon materials in EO for organic pollutants degradation. It also discusses the modification strategies and corresponding electrocatalytic properties of various carbon materials (carbon nanomaterials and porous carbon materials), and explores the EO mechanism. Finally, some summaries of the remaining challenges and future developments of carbon materials in the field of electrocatalysis are given.
期刊介绍:
Carbon Resources Conversion (CRC) publishes fundamental studies and industrial developments regarding relevant technologies aiming for the clean, efficient, value-added, and low-carbon utilization of carbon-containing resources as fuel for energy and as feedstock for materials or chemicals from, for example, fossil fuels, biomass, syngas, CO2, hydrocarbons, and organic wastes via physical, thermal, chemical, biological, and other technical methods. CRC also publishes scientific and engineering studies on resource characterization and pretreatment, carbon material innovation and production, clean technologies related to carbon resource conversion and utilization, and various process-supporting technologies, including on-line or off-line measurement and monitoring, modeling, simulations focused on safe and efficient process operation and control, and process and equipment optimization.
