This review analyzes the effectiveness of chemical and electrochemical methods for removing adsorbable organic halides in wastewater, highlighting gaps in current research.
Key Points
Advanced chemical and electrochemical processes show up to 98% AOX mineralization in wastewater.
Fenton and photo‐Fenton methods exhibit the highest efficiency in adsorbable organic halides removal.
Most research has been conducted in lab conditions, raising concerns about full-scale application reliability.
Further studies are required to assess the toxicity of treated effluent and by-products from these methods.
