Abstract
Halogenated organic pollutants are often found in wastewater effluent although it has been usually treated by advanced oxidation processes. Atomic hydrogen (H*)-mediated electrocatalytic dehalogenation, with an outperformed performance for breaking the strong carbon-halogen bonds, is of increasing significance for the efficient removal of halogenated organic compounds from water and wastewater. This review consolidates the recent advances in the electrocatalytic hydro-dehalogenation of toxic halogenated organic pollutants from contaminated water. The effect of the molecular structure (e.g., the number and type of halogens, electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups) on dehalogenation reactivity is firstly predicted, revealing the nucleophilic properties of the existing halogenated organic pollutants. The specific contribution of the direct electron transfer and atomic hydrogen (H*)-mediated indirect electron transfer to dehalogenation efficiency has been established, aiming to better understand the dehalogenation mechanisms. The analyses of entropy and enthalpy illustrate that low pH has a lower energy barrier than that of high pH, facilitating the transformation from proton to H*. Furthermore, the quantitative relationship between dehalogenation efficiency and energy consumption shows an exponential increase of energy consumption for dehalogenation efficiency increasing from 90% to 100%. Lastly, challenges and perspectives are discussed for efficient dehalogenation and practical applications.

Nano Pd doped Ni foam electrode stimulated electrochemical reduction of tetrabromobisphenol A: Optimization strategies and function mechanism. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 838:156007. [PMID: 35595130 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.156007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2022] [Revised: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 05/12/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), a hazardous and persistent flame retardant, has been widely detected in the natural aquatic system. The acceleration of reductive debromination (rate-limiting process) is vital during the decomposition and detoxification of TBBPA. This study achieved superior TBBPA electrochemical reductive debromination performance by nano Pd doped Ni foam electrode (4.8 times higher than Ni foam electrode). The optimal TBBPA reductive debromination performance was obtained under -1.2 V of cathode potential, 1.2 wt% of Pd loading, 10 mg L-1 of TBBPA and 100 mM of Na2SO4 as the electrolyte solution. UPLC-QTOF-MS verified that Br atoms in TBBPA were removed sequentially to form bisphenol A as the major product. Most TBBPA was reductively debrominated by atomic H* through indirect hydrodebromination, evidenced by the atomic H* quenching test. The higher solution conductivity and appropriate TBBPA concentration would contribute to the debromination efficiency. Excessive H2 generation whether by over negative potential or H atom richness electrolyte largely disturbed the reaction process and restricted the debromination. The improved generation of reductant (H*)adsPd was the most significant, while excessive Pd loading would make aggregation and limit the debromination efficiency. The study confirmed the optimization strategies of conditions for Pd/Ni foam electrode and revealed the related function mechanism for stimulating TBBPA electrochemical reduction, giving suggestions for the efficient removal of TBBPA in the aquatic environment.

Abstract
A galvanic deposition method for the in-situ formation of Pt nanoparticles (NPs) on top and inner surfaces of high-aspect-ratio black TiO2 -nanotube electrodes (bTNTs) for true utilization of their total surface area has been developed. Density functional theory calculations indicated that the deposition of Pt NPs was favored on bTNTs with a preferred [004] orientation and a deposition mechanism occurring via oxygen vacancies, where electrons were localized. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy images revealed a graded deposition of Pt NPs with an average diameter of around 2.5 nm along the complete nanotube axis (length/pore diameter of 130 : 1). Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) studies in acidic electrolytes showed comparable results to bulk Pt (per geometric area) and Pt/C commercial catalysts (per mg of Pt). The presented novel HER cathodes of minimal engineering and low noble metal loadings (μg cm-2 range) achieved low Tafel slopes (30-34 mV dec-1 ) and high stability in acidic conditions. This study provides important insights for the in-situ formation and deposition of NPs in high-aspect-ratio structures for energy applications.

Abstract
In this study, the electrochemical dechlorination of different polychloromethanes (CCl4, CHCl3, and CH2Cl2) on a Co-MoS2 graphite felt cathode was investigated. The Co-MoS2 electrocatalyst was prepared hydrothermally on a graphite felt support. The prepared catalyst’s characterization revealed the formation of hybridized CoSx and MoS2 nanosheets deposited on the pore structures of graphite. The influencing factor for the electro-dechlorination parameters such as applied current density, pH, and sample concentration on the dechlorination rate was optimized. A significant capacitive reduction current density peak of approximately 1 mA/cm2 was noted for CCl4 at a potential of −0.3 V (vs. AgCl). The dechlorination mechanism was attributed to the stepwise hydrogenolysis mechanism that involves the organochlorides bond cleavage by H* insertion. It was noted that the Co-MoS2 graphite felt electrode exhibited excellent catalytic activity toward the reduction of each of the chlorinated compounds with high selectivity toward the higher-order organochloride. Moreover, the dechlorination rates for each of the compounds were suited to the first-order kinetic model, and the estimated apparent rate constants showed the dechlorination in the following sequence CH2Cl2 (k3 = 9.1 × 10−5 s−1) < CHCl3 (k2 = 1.5 × 10−3 s−1) < CCl4 (k1 = 2.8 × 10−3 s−1).

Abstract
Reducing the Pd loading on electrodes is critical in the electrocatalytic hydrodechlorination (EHDC) of chlorinated organic compounds (COCs). The EHDC reaction of COCs on Pd involves three steps: H* formation, H* adsorption, and dechlorination. It has been established that the initial hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) occurs on Pd0 and the dechlorination steps occur on Pd2+. A strategy is proposed to design new electrodes by adding a reducible HER-active interlayer to replace Pd0, fulfilling the responsibility of producing hydrogen, and to facilitate the formation of more Pd2+ for following C-Cl bond cleavage. Keeping the atomic hydrogen adsorption energy on the Pd/interlayer similar to that on pure Pd is also necessary for H* adsorption as well as to maintain a high EHDC activity. For the first time, the NiCo2O4-interlayer-modified Pd/Ni-foam electrode was applied in the EHDC of COCs, which enhanced the EHDC efficiency to 100% within 90 min and reduced 88.6% of Pd consumption. The Pd/NiCo2O4/Ni-foam electrode with enhanced EHDC activity was also observed with almost 100% product selectivity and good stability. A synergistic mechanism is proposed for the enhanced EHDC activity on the Pd/NiCo2O4/Ni-foam. This work offers a simple and useful strategy to design robust electrocatalysts for the EHDC of COCs.

Abstract
A new Pd-Co3O4/Ni foam electrode was synthesized by a facile two-step method comprising co-electrodeposition and calcination. Compared with Ni foam-supported Pd electrodes obtained by electrodeposition or chemical deposition, the new Pd-Co3O4/Ni foam electrode exhibited greatly enhanced catalytic hydrodechlorination activity. The introduction of Co3O4 reduced the amount of Pd required. For the same degree of dechlorination of 2,4-D, only 25% of the Pd was required in the Pd-Co3O4/Ni foam electrode compared with the Ni foam electrode prepared by chemical deposition. Various characterizations indicated that Co3O4 on the surface of the Ni foam enhanced catalytic performance through accelerated generation of atomic H*. In addition, the good distribution of macropores, providing a larger specific surface area and lower electron transfer impedance, enabled more adsorption of atomic .
