Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂),is an environmentally benign and powerful chemical oxidant being able to eliminate a wide range of harmful bacteria and inorganic pollutants in water. Electrochemical production of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) offers a sustainable way for local synthesis and onsite applications.^1–3 In this talk, I summarize the recent developments and efforts in electrochemical synthesis of hydrogen peroxide guided by both theory and experiment. ^1–6
