Abstract:Antibiotic wastewater pollution has become one of the most serious environmental problems in the world, which poses a great threat to the survival of human beings and the balance of ecosystem. As an advanced oxidation process (advanced oxidation process,AOPs) that can degrade antibiotic pollutants, heterogeneous electro-Fenton method has attracted wide attention due to its advantages of high oxidation efficiency, strong oxidation performance and low secondary pollution. In this paper, the research status and existing problems of the degradation of antibiotic wastewater by heterogeneous electro-fenton technology are summarized from three aspects of reaction mechanism, catalyst and cathode. Finally, the prospect of the degradation of antibiotic wastewater by heterogeneous electro-Fenton technology is made.
