Design of a hierarchical MXene-reduced graphene oxide-modified electrode decorated with layered double hydroxide for treatment of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in aqueous solution

Key Points

• The hierarchical mxene-reduced graphene oxide electrode demonstrated efficient removal of perfluorooctanoic acid from aqueous solution, significantly reducing concentration levels.
• PFOA removal efficiency reached 92% in controlled tests, indicating the electrode's strong capability to treat water contaminants.
• This analysis involved experimental methods to evaluate the performance of the electrode in various aqueous environments for PFOA remediation.
• Evidence suggests that this innovative electrode design might enhance treatment processes, necessitating further examination in real-world applications.
