Cleaner water, longer-lasting devices: New benchmark measures electrocatalysis oxidants in real time

Cleaner water, longer-lasting devices: New benchmark measures electrocatalysis oxidants in real time

From brightly colored textile dyes to persistent pesticides and antibiotics, many modern pollutants dissolved in water—such as Bisphenol A—resist traditional treatment methods. A promising approach uses electricity to power chemical reactions in water over an electrode surface. Much like in a battery, electrodes send and receive electrical current that drives chemical reactions.
