▎ 摘  要

A novel and efficient Ti/SnO2-Sb/PbO2-GO-Ce electrode was successfully fabricated based on the co-deposition of Ce ions and graphene oxide (GO) into beta-PbO2 crystals and used as an anode for electrocatalytic oxidation of phenol. The electrodeposition mechanism, parameter optimization, mechanism analysis, and potential degradation pathways were discussed in depth. The co-doping of GO and Ce resulted in the high directional specificity of beta(301), orderly and dense grain arrangement of PbO2 crystals. At the same time, the oxygen evolution potential, center dot OH generation capacity and lifetime were also improved. The effects of experimental parameters on phenol removal efficiency were evaluated, including the applied current density, electrode gap, supporting electrolyte, initial NaCl concentration, initial pH, and initial phenol concentration. Under the optimal conditions, the removal efficiency of phenol can reach 375.6 g m(-2) h(-1) for 20 min electrolysis, which is about 1.2 times that of the pure PbO2 electrode. The active oxygen species (center dot OH, ClO- and HClO) were important attributes to the degradation of phenol. Additionally, a potential degradation pathway for phenol was proposed. After 10 successive recycles, there was no significant difference of the electro-generated center dot OH, cell voltage and phenol removal rate, which confirms the stability and admirable reusability of Ti/SnO2-Sb/PbO2-GO-Ce electrode.
