In this work, a TiO(2) photocatalytic sensor was prepared and utilized into flow injection analysis (FIA) for chemical oxygen demand (COD) determination. With a positive bias potential of 0.4V (vs. Ag/AgCl) applied to the sensor and a 12-W quartz UV lamp illuminating it, photocurrent, due to the charge transfer at the interface of TiO(2) sensor and the passing solution, was recorded and its change (deltaI(Photo)) caused by the detected sample was calculated to characterize the COD value of the sample. Under the optimizing conditions, the sensor responded linearly to the COD of D-glucose solution in the range of 0.5-235 mg/L, with a linear correlation coefficient of 0.9998. Its application in artificial wastewater analysis has achieved results in good agreement with those from the conventional dichromate method; meanwhile, the process requires no hypertoxic reagents and less analysis time, suggesting that it would be another appropriate method for COD determination in water assessment.
