This project develops a novel technology for treating hospital wastewater by generating sulfate and hydroxyl radicals through electrochemical processes. This method effectively removes persistent organic contaminants without generating secondary pollution, making it suitable for various contaminated waste streams.
Hospital wastewater effluents have been identified as the primary sources of DNA-damaging compounds, and are considered as the major source of antibiotic resistance in the environment.
They exhibit significantly higher pollution, up to 3,500 mg/L of chemical oxygen demand, compared to municipal sewage (i.e., 100-500 mg/L).There is no established technology for the treatment of hospital wastewater.
Biological treatment is incapable of degrading more persistent contaminants, e.g., organohalogens,…
