Electrochemical treatment has emerged as a viable technology for the treatment of leachate due to its efficient removal of ammonaical nitrogen and other recalcitrant organics. The main technical issues that prevent its practical deployment are restricted performance of a single electrochemical process and the lengthy tertiary treatment time required to achieve the disposal quality standards. This study demonstrates the performance of electrochemical treatments such as peroxicoagulation (PC) and aerated electrocoagulation (A-EC) separately and also sequentially for the treatment of stabilized leachate.

Nowadays, because the quality and quantity of mixed industrial wastewater keep fluctuating in recent times, the treatment of mixed industrial wastewater has gained more attention. The main target of this study is to degrade the wastewater through a combination of electrochemical advanced oxidation processes (EAOPs) and biological treatment. To enhance the biodegradability of the wastewater, Electro-Fenton process, along with external persulphate addition, was applied before the biological treatment.
