  • The poisoning of Pt catalysts from sulfur compounds with sulfur in different oxidation states of, 2−, 3+ and 4+ was studied.

  • Poisoned Pt catalysts can be renewed by consecutive potential cycling with an upper potential limit of 1.25 V versus RHE.

  • XPS analysis has demonstrated the conversion of sulfur to sulfate during the voltammetric regeneration.

  • Pt single-crystal electrodes revealed surface-structure sensitivity of the electro-oxidation of the adsorbed sulfur species.
