Abstract

A SnO 2/Ti electrode prepared by thermal oxidation was used as the anode for galvanostatic electrolysis in acidic solution containing phenol, the time_dependances of phenol concentration,chemical oxygen demand in solution(COD)and instantaneous current efficiency were determined during electrolysis.The results show that with the SnO 2/Ti anode instead of Pt,the COD significantly decreases at the same charge passage, and average current efficiency of oxidation increases by three times The mechanism for phenol oxidation at two electrodes was discussed.
