[0002] The new technology of electrolytic
sewage treatment has many advantages such as strong
processing capacity, small equipment size, and no secondary
pollution. It has been widely used to treat wastewater containing organic pollution such as hydrocarbons, alcohols, aldehydes, ethers, and
phenols. The main Depending on the oxidation reaction on the surface of the
anode, the
organic matter is directly oxidized and degraded on the surface of the anode, or the
intermediate product with strong oxidative properties is electrolyzed, and the oxidation of the organic matter and the competition reaction of
oxygen evolution are carried out on the anode. - The wastewater with more ions is mainly the
precipitation of
chlorine gas; in the process of electrolytic treatment of organic wastewater, the electrode not only plays the role of transmitting current, but also catalyzes the oxidation and degradation of organic matter. A necessary condition for the catalytic electrode is to have a
High oxygen evolution (
chlorine evolution)
overpotential, so the choice of
electrode material directly affects the degradation efficiency of organic matter. The
electrode material should have excellent catalytic activity and
conductivity, long
corrosion resistance stability and electrode life, wide Electrochemical
wide mouth, higher current efficiency and lower price, electrode materials in the prior art include
metal electrodes,
graphite electrodes,

Dissolution is prone to occur during the
electrolysis process, which not only consumes metal electrode materials, but also brings new substances into the solution to pollute the solution, and a
passivation film will be formed on the metal surface to affect the
conductivity and activity of the electrode; the catalytic performance of the
inert electrode
platinum electrode The activity is not high, and the
platinum electrode is prone to pollution and inactivation during the
electrolysis process; the
graphite electrode itself has poor strength, and the electrode loss is large when the
current density is high; the
metal oxide electrode is formed on a metal base (such as Ti, Zr, Ta , Nb, etc.) on which a layer of metal oxide film is deposited has the advantages of low loss and stable dimensions during the
electrolysis process: a
