Abstract:
The photoelectric degradation of Aauramine O was optimized by the single factor and response surface method using a fluorine-doped SnO
2 transparent conductive glass (FTO conductive glass) as the anode. The effects of mass concentration of TiO
2 and NaCl, acidity of environment, voltage of electrolysis and time applied on the decolorization rate were discussed, and the decolorization conditions were optimized using a response surface method. The results showed that the decolorization rate of Auramine O could reach 95.91% when the mass concentration of TiO
2 was 0.13 g/L, the mass concentration of NaCl was 0.43 g/L, the initial acidity of the environment was 8.0, and the voltage of electrolysis was 14.0 V for 30 min.
