For the degradation of the DB 22 dye (30 mA cm−2, 25 °C, and pH 7), COD removal is greatly accelerated in the presence of NaCl. In its absence, the β-PbO2 anode is more efficient for COD removal than the BDD anode, which suggests that distinct oxidation pathways take place on the surface of those anodes.
