Abstract

The performance of trickle-bed electrodes of crushed graphites in oxygen reduction to hydrogen peroxide has been investigated. Results are presented for the effects of the current density, gas and electrolyte flow rates, pressure, and graphite particle size on the electrode potential, voltage loss in the electrode material, and current yield of the process.
