Experimental Study on the Removal of Styrene in Air Stream by an Electrochemical Reactor
(0) The removal of styrene from air stream was experimentally investigated by a novel electrochemical reactor. The electrochemical reactor consists of 5 pairs of stacked mesh electrodes. Each pair of mesh electrodes consists of a RuO /Ti anode and a Ti cathode. The dimension of the mesh electrode is 100mm × 100mm with 3mm ×5mm rhombic holes. The distance between two neighboring electrodes is 50 mm. The simulated gas was introduced to the reactor from the bottom of the reactor by a gas distributor. Experimental result shows that styrene in the air stream was effectively removed by the electrochemical reactor. The removal of styrene increased with the increase of current density applied to the reactor and gas residence time. It was found that over 90% styrene was removed with an operation condition of current density of 0.10A/cm and an inlet concentration of 1500ppm styrene in a air stream with a gas flow rate of 2000mL/min. The major product of styrene degrading in liquid phase was confirmed to be benzoic acid.
