Abstract

The oxidative efficiency and energy consumption, in the degradation of chloroanilines by anodic oxidation, indirect oxidation with electrogenerated hydrogen peroxide and electro-Fenton have been compared, using a laboratory system driven by a LabVIEW virtual controller. Solutions were oxidized in an undivided cell, where H2O2 was generated electrochemically by reduction of atmospheric oxygen bubbled at a carbon cloth cathode. The electro-Fenton process showed the best degradation power, in terms of efficiency of removal and energy consumption. This process was applied to the purification of a solution obtained by washing a polluted soil. Under laboratory conditions, electro-Fenton removed 75% COD of this wastewater with a specific energy consumption of 0.3 kW h per gram of COD, corresponding to 41.8 kW h m-3.
