Revolutionary UV/H2O2 Process Removes 91% COD from Electroplating Wastewater
Degreasing wastewater from electroplating contains high levels of oil and COD. Researchers used UV/H2O2 to reduce COD, finding that a pH of 3, equal parts H2O2 to COD, and continuous H2O2 feeding led to a 91% COD removal rate after 4 hours.
