Coupling electrocoagulation with electro-oxidation for COD and phosphorus removal from industrial container wash water

Electrochemical processes such as electrocoagulation (EC) and electrooxidation (EO) have proved their effectiveness for the treatment of industrial refractory wastewater. This study aimed to strategically combine EC and EO processes for the treatment of highly contaminated wastewater (COD of 10,360 ± 665 mg/L and phosphorus concentration of 22.9 ± 0.9 mg/L) coming from industrial container wash water (IWW). In this regard, the EO and EC...
