Anodic Materials with High Energy Efficiency for Electrochemical Oxidation of Toxic Organics in Waste Water

With the development of human society, discharge of toxic organics in industrial waste water increased sharply. It is difficult to treat these types of waste water efficiently by traditional bio-process to meet the more critical discharge standard. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) attracted more and more attention as efficient methods to remove the toxic organics from waste water. Compared with other AOPs, electrochemical oxidation process was considered as an effective and environmental friendly process due to its simplicity in operation, robustness in system configuration, strong oxidizing ability, reliable performance for a wide variety of toxic organics and chemical reagents free.
