The above article from The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering , published online on 13 November 2014 in Wiley Online Library ( wileyonlinelibrary.com ), and in Volume 93, Issue 1, pp. 55–62, has been retracted by agreement between the authors, the journal's Editor‐in‐Chief, João B. P. Soares, and Wiley Periodicals, Inc. The retraction has been agreed following a request from the authors upon discovering unreliability in the reported data. After publication of the paper, the authors performed additional experiments which indicated that the results were influenced by the presence of unwanted ethanol in the electrochemical cell, thus questioning the validity of some of the data presented and the corresponding conclusions that were made. The authors regret this honest experimental error and apologize to the Can. J. Chem. Eng . readership and editorial office. REFERENCE [1] N. Ullah , I. Ali, M. Jansen, S.
