Abstract :
Electrochemical process was developed for wastewater treatment of phenolic compounds. The most reactive hydroxyl radical was generated by electrochemical approach and could effectively degrade organic pollutants. The toxicity of wastewater was largely reduced. The degradation pathway was proposed.
