The second part of this review considers electrochemical methods for the treatment of organic and inorganic species, the treatment of flue gases and waste gases, and membrane‐based electrochemical techniques. These methods include both direct and indirect oxidation and reduction methods for toxic organics and cyanides. Membrane‐based methods include electrodialysis, electro‐osmosis and electrophoresis. Other aspects considered are electrosorption, electrochemical ion‐exchange, electroflotation, and electrochemically‐enhanced ultrafiltation.
