摘要：

This study investigated the impact of operational variables including current density, solution pH, sodium sulfate electrolyte concentration, initial pollutant concentration, and reaction time on ciprofloxacin (CIP) anodic oxidation and its COD removal by Ti/PbO2 electrocatalyst. Ti/PbO2 anode was prepared by electrochemical method and its characteristics were determined using SEM, EDX-map, XRD, and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) techniques. Under optimal conditions, the removal rate of CIP and COD at the initial concentration of 15 mg/L of the pollutant after 75 min of reaction was 92 % and 88.8 %, respectively. CIP mineralization was confirmed by evaluating its UV-vis spectra and cyclic voltammetry (CV) curves during the process. Considering the degradation intermediates identified by LC-MC analysis, the main reactions in CIP mineralization pathways were discussed in detail. Finally, the improvement of biodegradability of pharmaceutical wastewater during anodic oxidation treatment was evaluated. The results indicated that the biodegradability of wastewater significantly increased from BOD/COD = 0.18 for raw wastewater to BOD/COD = 0.42 for treated wastewater. The results showed that anodic oxidation with Ti/PbO2 electrocatalyst can be a practical method of treating wastewater that contains resistant and toxic pharmaceutical compounds.
