Degradation of refractory compounds in industrial wastewaters by advanced technologies based on electrochemical and photochemical oxidation
Petsi P., Sarasidis V., (Corresponding) Plakas K., Karabelas A.
Topic:
Advanced oxidation processes
Results are presented of a systematic experimental investigation aiming to eliminate refractory organics from industrial effluents, of high and non-biodegradable organic load, by two Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs). Bench scale experiments were performed with real wastewater samples collected...Read more
