摘要
Pd/C catalyst was prepared by hydrogen reduction method and used for the Pd/C gas-diffusion electrode. It was characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV) technique. The electrochemical degradation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) was investigated in a diaphragm electrolysis' device, feeding firstly with hydrogen gas then with air, using the Pd/C gas-diffusion electrode and the carbon/polytetrafluoroethylene (C/PTFE) gas-diffusion electrode as the cathode, respectively. The results indicated that the Pd/C gas-diffusion cathode can not only reductively dechlorinate PCP by feeding hydrogen gas, but also accelerate the two-electron reduction of O-2 to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by feeding air. Therefore, both the removal efficiency and the dechlorination degree of PCP exceeded 80% after 120 min, and the average removal efficiency of PCP in terms of total organic carbon (TOC) exceeds 75% after 200 min by using Pd/C gas-diffusion cathode, which was better than that of the C/PTFE gas-diffusion cathode. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) allows identifying phenol as the dechlorination product.
