wastewater can be a mediator. The textile wastewater consists of excess amounts of
chlorines and sulphates which can be used as mediators in the indirect electrochemical
oxidation process. There is not only bulk electrochemical oxidation that happens, and
it is also associated with other types of oxidation process, but bulk is the effective
one.
The production or activation of the mediator can be accomplished in four ways
• Activation by available salts in wastewater
• Chemical activation by addition of oxidizing agents
• Activation by photolysis
• Activation by sonication.
The later three processes are combined processes which increase the efficiency
of the oxidation process which splits up the organic pollutants. Since textile wastewater contains salt, the process is discussed in detail. During bulk process, chlorine
