Abstract

Electrocatalytic treatment of chemical saline wastewater showed great technical advantages due to its characteristics of simple operation, high catalytic efficiency and little secondary pollution. The review takes the classification and composition of titanium-based anodes as the starting point. Typical studies of wastewater treatment by electrocatalytic technology based on free radicals and non-free radicals were also discussed. Combined with the previous researches about electrocatalytic mechanisms in recent years, the mechanisms of titanium-based anodes were analyzed in terms of ·OH, active chlorine and others. The studies on titanium-based anodes in chemical wastewater containing different salt concentrations, such as dye wastewater, coal chemical wastewater, landfill leachate wastewater, fertilizer and pesticide production wastewater, etc., were thoroughly examined. According to the amount of electricity required for the removal of organic matter per unit, the energy consumption of titanium-based anodes for wastewater treatment by electrochemistry was described. The review would provide theoretical basis and technical support for electrocatalytic treatment of chemical saline wastewater.
