Abstract
The current research paper discusses about the research exploitations in environmental electrochemistry and its vast potentials toward a cleaner environment especially in treating wastewater. A number of ecological pollutants can either be treated or converted to nontoxic elements using various techniques such as electrochemical reduction, electrodialysis, electrocoagulation/flotation, electrochemical oxidation, electrocoagulation, electrochemical reduction, and electrochemical advanced oxidation processes. The research paper also deduces notable examples for the removal of pollutants and how wastewater is treated in different processes. This review also discusses the futuristic needs for commercial applications of electrochemical processes.
