AI Article Synopsis

  • Modifications to reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) are gaining attention for creating effective and affordable electrodes that enhance water and wastewater treatment compared to unmodified RVC.
  • These modified RVC materials serve as cathodes, anodes, and membranes, showing improved physical and electrocatalytic properties through methods like metal oxide deposition and surface functionalization.
  • The mini-review analyzes studies from 2015 to 2020 about the use of these electrodes in removing pollutants and pathogens from water, while also addressing current challenges and future research opportunities in the field.

Article Abstract

Recently, modifications on reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) have attracted attention as a promising strategy to produce low-cost, stable, and highly active electrodes leading to significant advances in the water/wastewater treatment field compared with raw RVC. Modified RVC materials have been used as cathode, anode, and membrane. Improvements on physical and electrocatalytic properties are achieved by RVC modification via diverse strategies, including the deposition of metal oxides, the introduction of surface functional groups, and the formation of composites, which were used to remove organic contaminants and pathogens from water matrices, as summarized in this mini-review. This mini-review mainly focused on papers published from 2015 to 2020 that reported modified RVC electrodes to eliminate pollutants and pathogens from water matrices by electrochemical advanced oxidation processes. Likewise, news challenges and opportunities are discussed, and perspectives for the ongoing and future studies in this research field are also given.
