This compound is already tightened their use in European Union countries. However, these surfactants are still used widely in Indonesia because the price is relatively cheap. Consequently, these compounds can accumulate in aquatic environments. NPE-10 can disrupt aquatic ecosystems. This study aimed to describe the electro-oxidation process of NPE-10 based on the parameters of a potential difference, concentration of NPE-10, concentration of Ce (III), and oxidation time. The result of oxidation NPE-10 was measured by the amount of current generated from voltammetry technique. Studies of cyclic voltammetry using carbon paste electrodes illustrates the potential value of the oxidation of Ce (III) / Ce (IV) of 1.25 V and the reduction potential value of Ce (IV) / Ce (III) of 1.192 V. NPE-10 are electroactive irreversible because it only provides the potential value of oxidation at 1.44 V. Percent of total degradation of 84.96% was obtained at electro-oxidation of 500 ppm NPE-10 by the addition of 0.015 M Ce (III) for 90 minutes at 0.2 M H2SO4and the use of potential of 6 V.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Aquatic environments,Carbon paste electrode,Electro-oxidation process,European Union countries,Nonylphenol ethoxylates,Potential difference,Potential values,Reduction potential[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]The authors are very grateful to Institut Teknologi Bandung/ Ministry of Research, Technology and Higher Education of The Republic of Indonesia (RISTEKDIKTI) for their financial support through PUPT DIKTI 2017.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/1013/1/012201[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
