Abstract

The leather industry is one of the most polluting sectors in terms of the volume and difficulty of waste disposal. In recent years special attention focused on the treatment of industrial wastewater using advanced treatment technologies, among all approaches, electrochemical technology appears to be one of the most promising methods for handling organic pollutant-containing wastewater. The benefits of electrochemical technology include durability, energy efficiency, automation, and environmental compatibility. The review found the feasibility of the electrochemical method for the treatment of effluent from the leather industry and also found that the rate of pollutant removal was significantly influenced by the type of anode material and electrochemical parameters.
