Graphite felt cathodes modified with carbon black and PTFE for the efficient electro-Fenton degradation of sulfamethoxazole

Key Points

• Electro-Fenton degradation effectively reduces sulfamethoxazole levels, enhancing water treatment outcomes.
• The modified cathodes achieved a 90% reduction of sulfamethoxazole within 120 minutes of treatment.
• Assessment using modified graphite felt cathodes demonstrates substantial efficacy in electro-Fenton applications.
• Improving wastewater treatment with carbon black and PTFE in cathodes shows promise for future research efforts.
