Polymer-coated nanowire electrocatalytic system for removal of micropollutants
A new polymer-coated nanowire sponge-based electrocatalytic system has been developed for wastewater treatment. This system effectively disinfects microorganisms and degrades various micropollutants, achieving over 99% disinfection in just three minutes. Its high efficiency, versatility, and reusability make it a promising solution for both small-scale and large-scale applications.
- ▪The polymer-coated nanowire sponge (PNS) system facilitates interfacial electron transfer and generates reactive oxygen species under ultrasonic stimulation.
- ▪It can degrade dyes, waste tire leachate, and reduce heavy metal ions in wastewater while producing hydrogen peroxide at a rate of 20.2 ± 0.1 μmol h⁻¹.
- ▪The system demonstrates excellent recovery and reusability, indicating its potential for widespread use in wastewater treatment.
