Dechlorination of 4-chlorophenol to phenol in bioelectrochemical systems.
Journal of Hazardous Materials 2013 January 16
Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs), such as microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and microbial electrolysis cells (MECs), are generally regarded as a promising key technology to effectively treat wastewater and better exploit the renewable resource. This study explored the use of a BES to abiotically cathodic dechlorination of aromatic chlorides such as 4-chlorophenol, where the process was driven by microbial oxidation of glucose at the anode. It was confirmed that the 4-CP reduction process was feasible in BES and the dechlorination efficiency of 4-CP could achieve 50.3% at the cathode with energy generation. The 4-CP dechlorination efficiency was significantly enhanced when the BES was supplied with voltages, reaching up to 92.5% at an energy consumption of 0.549 kWh mol(-1) 4-CP (at applied voltage of 0.7 V). Besides, phenol was identified as the major product of 4-CP dechlorination at the cathode of BES in this study, which was the same as electrochemical reduction.
