Abstract

The electrochemical decolorization of Reactive Orange 16 in a chloride containing solution was studied using a dimensionally stable Ti/PtOx anode. Different reaction parameters, agitation speed, applied current, sodium chloride concentration, and dye concentration were varied and the optimum electrolysis conditions were suggested. Hypochlorous acid was suggested to be the active species in the electrochemical decolorization.Moreover, the reaction was studied using UV–Vis spectrophotometry, high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), total organic carbon (TOC) and total nitrogen (TN) analyses.
