Manganese oxide-functionalized graphene sponge electrodes for electrochemical chlorine-free disinfection of tap water

Low-cost reduced graphene oxide sponges functionalized with manganese oxide were used as electrodes for the disinfection of Escherichia coli in water. Manganese oxide was doped with amino groups (MnxOyNH2) to strengthen the bond with the graphene coating and improve the electrochemical stability of...
