Abstract

Key findings

  • The use of a stainless steel electrode resulted in the highest wastewater treatment efficiency, with a removal rate of 92% for COD and 95% for ammonia.
  • The graphite electrode showed moderate performance, with removal rates of 85% for COD and 90% for ammonia.
  • The carbon cloth electrode had the lowest performance, with removal rates of 78% for COD and 85% for ammonia.
