a Schematic illustration of the electrochemical and chemical reactions included in the model. The anode is located at the origin. The initial species concentrations were 1 mM KCl, 10 mM BQ, 0.5 mM BQ*−, and 0.25 μM H+ (pH = 6.6). b Time dependent concentration profiles of various species averaged within 50 μm of the anode (upper panel) and cathode (lower panel) for an applied potential of –200 mV and electrode spacing of 320 μm. c, d pH averaged within 50 μm of the cathode as a function of time for various steady potentials for electrode spacings of (c) 320 μm and (d) 650 μm. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
