Preparation and electrochemical treatment application of Ce-PbO/ZrO composite electrode in the degradation of acridine orange by electrochemical advanced oxidation process.

Novel Ce-PbO/ZrO composite electrodes were successfully fabricated in lead nitrate solution containing cerium ions and ZrO particles by composite electrodeposition method. SEM images and XRD results indicated that Ce-PbO/ZrO composite electrodes have compact structure and fine grain size. Ce-PbO/ZrO composite electrode has higher oxygen evolution overpotential and stability than Ce-PbO electrode.
