Removal of formaldehyde from aqueous solutions via oxygen reduction using a reticulated vitreous carbon cathode cell
The removal of formaldehyde from waste streams to <0.3 ppm has been demonstrated using a cell with a reticulated vitreous carbon cathode; the formaldehyde is oxidized by hydrogen peroxide, formed at the cathode by reduction of oxygen. In most electrolytes studied (e.g. NaOH, NaCl and Na2SO4), the...
