Abstract

This comprehensive review examines the efficacy of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) in addressing pesticide contamination, with a focus on electrochemical methods in achieving efficient degradation. It highlights recent advancements in electrochemical techniques and their application in pesticide remediation, emphasizing their potential as sustainable and cost-effective solutions for environmental protection. By analyzing recent research findings and experimental data, this review delves into mechanisms underlying electrochemical pesticide degradation providing insights into key factors process efficiency and degradation kinetics. Furthermore, it discusses the environmental implications and regulatory considerations associated with the implementation of electrochemical AOPs for pesticide remediation, underscoring the need for further research to overcome current challenges and optimize process performance. This critical review provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments in the field of electrochemical pesticide degradation and offers valuable perspectives for future research directions.
