A fruit processing wastewater was submitted to different advanced oxidation processes, namely, electro-Fenton (EF), electrochemical (EO), activated persulfate (PS), and combined EF/PS. The performance of the treatment at experimental conditions, regarding organic load removal, biodegradability increment, toxicity reduction, specific energy consumption (Esp), evaluated. At conditions studied, EO led treated solutions with highest from 0.24 0.48, reduction towards Daphnia magna, 5.8 1.5 toxic...

The high organic load and the salinity content presented by fish canning wastewater (FCW), although a hindrance to application of traditional treatment processes, are favourable conditions for electrochemical oxidation (EO). In this study, performance EO FCW at different applied current density (j) electrical charge, using boron-doped diamond (BDD) anode, was evaluated regarding load, nitrogen, phosphorous removals, biodegradability increment, toxicity reduction, specific energy consumption....
Stannous and antimony oxide electrodes were prepared by metallic electrodeposition followed thermal oxidation. For the metal deposition, two methodologies tested: alternate simultaneous Sn Sb electrodepositions. Metals deposited onto titanium foil or covered with platinum copper. both preparation methods, SnO2 crystalline phase was identified, Sb2O3 Sb2O4 only present when electrodepositions performed. The roughness factor depends on method substrate morphology. introduction of a Pt Cu...
Electrochemical technologies have been broadly applied in wastewaters treatment, but few studies focused on comparing the performance of different electrochemical processes, especially when used to treat highly-polluted streams. The treatment a reverse osmosis concentrate sanitary landfill leachate was performed by means electrocoagulation (EC), anodic oxidation (AO) and electro-Fenton (EF) use electrode materials experimental conditions assessed. All studied processes were effective organic...
Wastewater reuse has been addressed to promote the sustainable water utilization in textile industry. However, conventional technologies are unable deliver treated wastewater with quality required for reuse, mainly due presence of dyes and high salinity. In this work, feasibility electrooxidation, using a boron-doped diamond anode, provide dyeing (TDW) complete recovery salts, was evaluated. The influence applied current density on TDW consecutive new baths studied. ecotoxicological...
Anodic oxidation at a boron-doped diamond anode of cork boiling wastewater was successfully used for mineralization and biodegradability enhancement required effluent discharge or subsequent biological treatment, respectively. The influence the applied current density (30-70 mA/cm2) background electrolyte concentration (0-1.5 g/L Na2SO4) on performance electrochemical investigated. supporting to achieve conductivities that enabled anodic highest intensities applied. results indicated...
