PG - 141-151 LID - S0304-3894(18)30768-4 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2018.08.081 [doi] AB - Novel Ce-PbO(2)/ZrO(2) composite electrodes were successfully fabricated in lead nitrate solution containing cerium ions and ZrO(2) particles by composite electrodeposition method. SEM images and XRD results indicated that Ce-PbO(2)/ZrO(2) composite electrodes have compact structure and fine grain size. Ce-PbO(2)/ZrO(2) composite electrode has higher oxygen evolution overpotential and stability than Ce-PbO(2) electrode. The service life of Ce-PbO(2)/ZrO(2) composite electrode reaches 318 h, which is 4.2 times as that of Ce-PbO(2) electrodes (74 h). The novel Ce-PbO(2)/ZrO(2) composite electrode was employed as anode to decontaminate acridine orange (AO) by electrochemical oxidization methods. The effect of initial concentration of AO, current density, and initial pH values on the removal ratio of AO were analyzed. The results showed that AO could be completely removed after 90 min electrolysis under the optimal condition: initial AO concentration was 30 mg L(-1), current density was 50 mA cm(-2), and the initial pH value was 5.0. Moreover, the possible degradation pathway of AO was elucidated based on the identification of stable byproducts generated during the electrochemical degradation process by HPLC-MS, which revealed that AO and its byproducts could be effectively eliminated and mineralized into CO(2), H(2)O, ammonium and nitrate ions.
