Advanced oxidation technology has the advantage of being able to efficiently degrade refractory organics, and plays an important role in the treatment of industrial organic wastewater. The article analyses its role in the purification of organic wastewater by the electrochemical method of polymer composite nano-titanium dioxide. The oxygen evolution potential of the nano titanium dioxide electrode is up to 2.8V, showing excellent electrochemical performance. Didache, Si/BDD, Nb/BDD, It/BDD electrodes and surface-modified BDD electrodes can generate strong oxidizing hydroxyl radicals on the surface of the electrodes, which are organic to phenols, dyes, pesticides, and surfactants. The degradability of wastewater is strong. Nano-titanium dioxide electrodes can degrade a variety of organic matter, with a current efficiency of >90%, and can completely mineralize organic matter. Nano-titanium dioxide electrodes have good application prospects in organic wastewater treatment.
