Degradation of Dyes by Electrochemical Advanced Oxidation Processes

Advanced Removal Techniques for Dye-containing Wastewaters

Abstract

The threat of organic dye-rich wastewaters on the environment and health has risen as a major problem. The situation is becoming worsened as legislation on dye effluent discharge is more and more rigorous. Over the last three decades, many efforts have been intensified to the implementation of EAOPs as effective technologies for recalcitrant dye pollutants. It was found that the main factors governing these processes are electrode material, current intensity, initial pH and dye structure. Heterogeneous AO was found very sensitive to anode material. The best performance was achieved by costly BDD anodes. Homogenous processes were observed to be very efficient in decolorization. The oxidizing ability was in the following order AO–H2O2 < EF < PEF < SPEF. Combining EAOPs with similar processes or other technologies significantly improves mineralization. Adopting PV panels as energy source shows to be a promising option to reduce drawbacks related to EAOPs high costs.
