Abstract

Abstract: Electrochemical studies in detecting persistent organic pollutants (POPs) have attracted a lot of interest from researchers, especially the carbon paste electrode (CPE). The research objectives were to determine the electrochemical characteristics of TiO2 /Ag-Li on the CPE in the system Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ and determine the fipronil in solution. TiO2 /Ag-Li preparation was carried out by using the sol-gel method. Electrochemical performance of CPE was applied by cyclic voltammetry. The system developed was a reversible redox reaction and have peaks Ipa 110 µA and Ipc 105 µA. We also found that the composition of the best modifier addition to CPE was using TiO2 /Ag-Li with a mass of 0.005 g. The optimum scan rate for the measurement of the fipronil test solution was obtained at 0.2 V/s with an Ipa value of 15 µA and an Epa value of 0.40 V. Based on the plot between the root scan rate and the oxidation current of the solution containing fipronil, the obtained R 2 value was 0.9806. This research provides the development of modifier CPE material with the well electrochemically performance and considered as a very effective monitored system for the environment contaminated by POPs waste.
