The electrochemical mineralization of organic pollutants is a new technology for treatment of dilute wastewater (COD < 5 g L-1). In this method, use of the electrical energy can produce complete oxidation of pollutants on high oxidation power anodes. An ideal anode for this type of treatment is a boron-doped diamond electrode (BDD) characterized by a high reactivity towards oxidation of organics. In the present work kinetic aspects of organic mineralization is discussed. The proposed theoretical kinetic model on boron-doped diamond anodes is in excellent agreement with experimental results. In addition economic aspects of electrochemical organic mineralization are reported.
