Electrochemical oxidation of industrial aqueous waste

许多工业废料含有难以用常规方法处理的物质，通常是因为它们难以氧化。电化学氧化是一种新兴技术，通常可以克服这些限制，因为在适当的条件下，它可以产生短寿命的反应性化学中间体，不加选择地攻击污染物。此外，电化学氧化是通过使用电流作为能量源来进行的，因此不需要添加化学添加剂（即不需要添加一种化学物质来赶走另一种化学物质）。这个具体项目涉及协助我们的工业伙伴处理工业伙伴发现难以补救的废物流。

Many industrial wastes contain substances that are recalcitrant to conventional treatment, usually because they are hard to oxidize. Electrochemical oxidation is an emerging technology that can often overcome these limitations because under the right conditions it produces short-lived reactive chemical intermediates that attack contaminant substances indiscriminately. In addition, electrochemical oxidation takes place by using an electric current as an energy source, and therefore does not require the addition of chemical additives (i.e., without the addition of one chemical to chase away another). This specific project involves assisting our industrial partner with the treatment of a waste stream that the industrial partner has found hard to remediate.
