Regarding the Treatment of (Waste)Water, Electrochemical Processes Have Various Advantages
Over Other Methods. They Are Robust, Easy to Operate and Flex-Ible In Case of Fluctuating Wastewater
Streams. In Addition, a Relatively Broad Spectrum of Organic and Inorganic Impurities Can Be Removed.
This Contribution Provides an Overview of Electrochemical Reactors For Water, Process Water, And
Wastewater Treatment, Which Are Already In Technical-Scale Operation or Subject of Research. Some
Essential Basics of Electrochemical Processes For the Treatment of Water Are Presented and Examples For
Applications Are Given. This Is Followed By a Description of the Reactors.
