| Abstract | The electrochemical degradation of reactive dyes using dimensionally stable anodes (DSA) is a promising sustainable approach for the treatment of textile industry wastewater worldwide. Studies have been conducted in several countries. Researchers in China reported a significant reduction in COD, TOC, and color of wastewater using DSA electrodes, while a study in Turkey found an 87% removal efficiency of reactive dyes from synthetic textile wastewater. In Iran, a study found that DSA electrodes were highly effective in removing reactive dyes and reducing wastewater toxicity. These findings highlight the potential of DSA electrode electrochemical degradation as a sustainable solution for the treatment of textile industry wastewater on an international level. I the proposed poC, we would carry out Optimization of the electrochemical process parameters, make the use of advanced DSA electrode materials, make the Integration of other treatment methods and Development of a scaled-up process |
