a Scheme of the electrochemical H2O2 production on anodes through a water oxidation reaction. b LSV curves recorded in 2 M KHCO3 before and after a stability test. The scan rate is 5 mV s−1. c H2O2 FE of the prepared ZnGa2O4 anode at different potentials in 2 M KHCO3 electrolyte (Error bars represent the standard deviation of three independent measurements). d The FE of typically reported anodes including ZnO25, boron-doped diamond (BDD)33, BDD (B/D ratio = 0.012)39 BiVO438, CaSnO324, Bi2WO6:Mo7, and Sb2O326 for H2O2 generation in bicarbonate/carbonate electrolyte for comparison. The orange star represents the thermodynamic potential of 2e-WOR. e The H2O2 generation rate on the ZnGa2O4 anode at different potentials. f The accumulated amount of H2O2 in 60 min-electrolysis under different applied potentials, (50 mL electrolyte, electrode area = 0.5 cm2). g The FE and generation rate of H2O2 on ZnGa2O4 anode with an applied bias of 2.3 V versus RHE in 700 minutes. The electrolyte was periodically replaced.
