Abstract
Salicylaldehyde (SA) is used in numerous biological, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications. Releasing effluents from these industries contaminates water. So the degradation of salicylaldehyde is necessitated. The electrochemical degradation of salicylaldehyde in buffered media was studied using the eco-friendly cyclic voltammetry (CV) technique on a platinum electrode at different scan rates. Kinetic and electrochemical parameters were evaluated for the reaction such as standard heterogeneous rate constant (k0,2.468×103 s-1 ), anodic electron transfer rate constant (kox,2.507×103 s-1), electron transfer coefficient of reaction (?,0.673), and formal potential (E0, 1.0937) under the influence of scan rate. The nature of the reaction is found to be diffusion controlled. The concentration study in the range of 1 mM to 4 mM was calibrated. The limit of detection and the limit of quantification were calculated to be 0.0031 mM and 0.0103 mM respectively.
