Abstract
The conventional tannery effluents treatment is not established in order to obtain water in such a quality, that it could be reused in the same process. This study was carried out in order to evaluate the electrochemical treatment of tannery effluents. The photoelectrochemical oxidation and the electrodialysis were applied in these effluents. The obtained results indicated a remarkable removal efficiency of more than 98.5% for all ion species present in effluents. It is noticeable that the effluent treated with combined PEO–ED techniques presents very similar values for the same parameter as the ones presented by normal feed water.
