Considering the nanobubbles were produced electrochemically through water splitting. Does the ROS generated through nanobubble collapse or by electrochemical reactions occuring at the electrodes?
Dear Yadav,
Based on your question, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in nanobubbles can occur through two main mechanisms:
1. Electrochemical Reactions at the Electrodes: During water splitting, oxidation reactions at the anode can directly generate ROS, such as hydroxyl radicals (OH) and superoxide (O2⁻).
2. Nanobubble Collapse: When nanobubbles collapse, they generate localized high temperatures and pressures, leading to ROS formation through cavitation-driven reactions.
Both mechanisms likely contribute, but their dominance depends on system conditions such as electrode materials, voltage, and bubble stability.
I hope you get.
