چکیده

مقدمه و اهداف: آلودگی پساب‌های حاصل از صنایع نساجی، دارویی و کشاورزی، همواره یکی از مشکلات جدی در زمینه محیط زیست بوده است. با توجه به ساختار پیچیده آلاینده‌های موجود، روش‌های سنتی تصفیه آب اغلب موثر نبوده و یا کارایی پایینی دارند. روش الکتروکاتالیستی که یکی از فرایندهای اکسیداسیون پیشرفته است، دارای قابلیت بسیار بالایی برای حذف آلاینده‌های آلی از پساب‌های صنعتی است. اکسید قلع، به‌طور ذاتی دارای خاصیت الکتروکاتالیستی مناسبی است که با اصلاح ساختاری می‌توان این ویژگی را در آن بهبود بخشید. 
مواد و روش‌ها: در این پژوهش، نانوذرات اکسید قلع دوپ‌شده با آنتیموان (Sn(Sb)O2)، با استفاده از روش هیدروترمال سنتز شدند. بررسی‌های ریزساختاری ذرات توسط پراش پرتو ایکس، طیف‌سنجی تبدیل فوریه فروسرخ و میکروسکوپ الکترونی روبشی انجام شد. این نانوذرات با استفاده از روش الکتروفورتیک روی زیرلایه‌های تیتانیوم خالص تجاری پوشش داده شد و خواص پوشش، توسط ارزیابی‌های سطحی و آزمون‌های الکتروشیمیایی (طیف‌سنجی امپدانس الکتروشیمیایی و ولتامتری چرخه‌ای) بررسی شد. سپس عملکرد الکتروکاتالیستی آن‌ها با تخریب رنگ متیلن بلو از محلول‌های آبی، به‌عنوان آلاینده استاندارد، ارزیابی شد. 
یافته‌ها: نانوذرات Sn(Sb)O2  به روش هیدروترمال سنتز و ساختار آن‌ها توسط آزمون‌های پراش پرتو ایکس، طیف‌سنجی پراش انرژی پرتو ایکس و طیف‌سنجی تبدیل فوریه فروسرخ تایید شد. بررسی‌های سطح و ضخامت پوشش توسط میکروسکوپ الکترونی روبشی، کیفیت بالای پوشش الکتروفورتیک را نشان دادند. 
نتیجه‌گیری: الکترود ساخته شده در مدت دو ساعت، بازده تخریب 66 و 89 درصد، به‌ترتیب در محلول های سدیم سولفات و پتاسیم کلرید حاوی ppm 5 متیلن بلو نشان داد.

چکیده [English]

Introduction and Objectives: Pollution of wastewater from textile, pharmaceutical, and agricultural industries has always been a serious environmental problem. Due to the complex structure of existing pollutants, traditional water treatment methods are often ineffective or have low efficiency. Electrocatalytic method, which is one of the advanced oxidation processes, has a very high ability to remove organic pollutants from industrial wastewater. Tin oxide inherently has good electrocatalytic properties, which can be improved by structural modification.
Materials and Methods: In this study, antimony-doped tin oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using the hydrothermal method. Structural studies of the particles were carried out by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. These nanoparticles were coated on commercial pure titanium samples using electrophoretic method and the coating properties were investigated by surface evaluations and electrochemical methods (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry). Their electrocatalytic performance was evaluated using methylene blue pigment as a standard pollutant.
Results: Sn(Sb)O2 nanoparticles were successfully obtained by a hydrothermal method and their structure was confirmed by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Surface and coating thickness examinations by scanning electron microscope showed the high quality of the electrophoretic coating.
Conclusion: The fabricated electrode showed 66 and 89 % degradation efficiency in sodium sulfate and potassium chloride solutions containing 5 ppm methylene blue, respectively, within 2 hours.
