Article Preview

Abstract:

With the medium of triethanolamine acetate ionic liquids and the help of cavitation effect of ultrasonic resonance, the TiO2 collosol is prepared by the sol-gel method and being loaded on nickel foam. The TiO2 electrodes are formed by calcinating at the high temperature. The results show that the optimal electrodes can be obtained with the medium of triethanolamine acetate ionic liquids, under the condition of high power ultrasound resonance for 15 minutes, the ionic liquid volume of 3 mL and the calcination temperature of 400 °C. After the wastewater is processed by photoelectric catalysis under the conditions of electrolysis voltage of 12V, electrode spacing of 1 cm, wastewater pH of 4 and illumination time of 90 minutes, the COD removal rate can reach 63.5%, while the decolorization rate can reach 93.6%.
