Electrochemical processes in environmental protection. Electrochemical processes can contribute considerably to environmental protection by means of waste purification processes and production integrated waste minimization. In the field of waste purification, electrochemical gas purification, purification of metal containing waste waters, and the electrolytic decomposition of neutral salt solutions will be illustrated by examples. As examples of production‐integrated environmental protection, this article considers fluidized bed electrolysis, membrane process for alkali chloride electrolysis, and electroreduction of dichloroacetic acid.
