Abstract

Boron-doped diamond and titanium suboxides have been proposed as electrode materials for use as anodes in future electrochemical devices, most likely in remote locations for potable water purification, or for specialized disinfection applications in decentralized systems. A comparison is made between electrochemical purification strategies that do not require added chemicals and systems that do, with emphasis given toward Magnéli electrode-based electrochemical disinfection and iodine-based electrochemical disinfection systems. Both systems with and without added chemicals come with advantages and disadvantages. The outlook of these emerging processes concludes this review.
