Defective Carbon-Based Materials for the Electrochemical Synthesis of Hydrogen Peroxide

Abstract

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), an important industrial chemical, is currently produced through an energy-intensive anthraquinone process that is limited to large-scale facilities. Small-scale decentralized electrochemical production of H2O2 via a two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) offers unique opportunities for sanitization applications and the purification of drinking water. The development of inexpensive, efficient, and selective …
