An analytical study of the electrochemical degradation of methyl orange using a novel polymer disk electrode
In this paper, the authors presents novel polymer desk electrode using an injection molding technique. The electrodes are low cost, mass produced, and efficient for degradation of dyes, compared to previous studies in the field. Complete decolorization of solution containing methyl orange was achieved in only 800 s. The treatment technique involves the electro-oxidation of KCl solution on the polymer electrode. The utilized technique is simple and rapid for dye degradation. The energy consumption is very low compared to previously published work in this field.
