Titanium dioxide (TiO2) film was supported on graphite (G) by means of chemical bath deposition (CBD) from TiCl4
precursor. Meanwhile surfactant cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) was added as linking and assembling
agent between titanium network and graphite substrate. Cu was deposited electrochemically from 0.4 M of CuSO4
solution at 0.03 A of electric current. The tablets of TiO2/G and Cu-TiO2/G were used as catalyst for photocatalytic
degradation (PC), electrocatalytic degradation (ED) and photoelectrocatalytic (PEC) degradation of Remazol Yellow
FG. In degradation system which used TiO2/G tablet, the highest rate constant, k, was achieved by PEC method, k
was 2.8´10-3 min-1, as well as in the system which used Cu-TiO2/G tablet. However, this research founded that direct
oxidation by external electric field contribute more to degradation process than photocatalytic mechanism, proved by
high rate constant of ED, k was 2.6´10-3 min-1. Meanwhile, rate constant of photocatalytic degradation was 5´10-4
min-1. This research also founded that TiO2 film highly contribute in degradation process due to the fact that rate
constant of electrodegradation by using blank graphite is low, k was 5´10-4 min-1. Meanwhile, deposition of Cu onto
TiO2 did not enhance degradation rate of remazol yellow by PEC method, however it enhanced the rate constant of
ED to 2.7´10-3 min-1. The FTIR analysis to the completedly degraded remazol yellow FG solution shows
disappearance of N=N stretching at 1559 cm-1and uas CH2 at 2919 cm-1. This indicates that molecular structure of
remazol yellow has been degraded succesfully then convert this dye solution into clear solution.
