[Figure 1] (IMAGE) National Research Council of Science & Technology Caption A schematic comparing traditional electro-Fenton and fluidized bed reactor-based electro-Fenton methods. / In the case of conventional reservoir-type water treatment (left), the oxygen (reactant) for hydrogen peroxide generation is low concentrations of dissolved oxygen, whereas in the case of flow-through reactor-based systems (right), high concentrations of oxygen gas are directly injected, resulting in high hydrogen peroxide generation characteristics. In addition, the circulating electrolyte allows for efficient organic removal by inducing the dispersion of excess hydrogen peroxide generated at the electrodes.
