We have previously shown that Ir-loaded TiOz exhibited excellent catalytic activity without carbon deposition in a prolonged run [3]. The reaction was proposed to proceed through a two-step process, that is complete oxidation of methane to give CO2 and HzO, followed by reforming reactions. At a lower temperature of 600 C, Ni-AlzOz catalyst is not active. The use of oxidized diamond-supported catalyst was examined under oxidative conditions. Diamond is believed to be inert to chemical reactions. However, in the presence of oxygen diamond can be oxidized to carbon dioxide. If the oxidized diamond support could be utilized under oxidative conditions, application of diamond support could be expanded to many catalytic reactions. 

Fig. 15.16 Measurements and results of a model calculation performed with CoTReM applying to the upper centimeters of a sediment core from equatorial West Africa (GeoB4906, 1251 m water depth) (after Pfeifer et al. 2002). The symbols in the left diagram represent measured values of pore-water concentrations (circles oxygen, diamonds nitrate, triangles manganese, squares iron, crosses sulfate). The unbroken lines denote the concentrations calculated by the model. The right diagram illustrates the assumed (bio)geochemical reactions which take place in various depths and display dissimilar turnover rates. (OM Organic matter).

On the other hand, electrostatic attraction between carboxyl groups and positively charged redox species [Ru(NH3)e]2+ 3+ should increase with increasing pH. In fact, the redox behavior for these at GC depends on pH, and this effect is an example of the Frumkin effect [10]. However, the rate constants for redox reactions at oxygenated diamond electrodes do not obey the Frumkin effect (Fig. 

Therefore, it is supposed that there is a negligible amount of carboxyl groups on oxygenated diamond electrodes.
