Abstract

A cathode, which can be used in combination with an anode in an advanced oxidation reactor, comprises a transition-metal foam and a carbon coating on the transition-metal foam. Oxidation can be achieved by electrifying the cathode and using the electrified cathode to produce a hydrogen-peroxide product via a first electrochemical reaction. OH radicals can be produced via a second electrochemical reaction involving the hydrogen peroxide product. Organic molecules can then be oxidized from a feed stream using the OH radicals.
