The raw leachate was collected from an 8-year-old landfill facility and had a chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 4660 mg/L, biological oxygen demand (BOD5) of 1370 mg/L, and total organic carbon (TOC) of 2260 mg/L. TOC and COD removal efficiencies of Boron-Doped Diamond (BDD), Pt, and four different Ti-based mixed metal oxide (MMO) anodes ((RuO2-TiO2, RuO2-IrO2, PtO2-IrO2, and IrO2-Ta2O5) were compared at the current densities of 25 mA/cm(2), 75 mA/cm(2), and 125 mA/cm(2). At the highest current density, the BDD achieved 100% TOC and COD removal efficiencies in 240 min. BDD was followed by the Pt anode, which achieved 95.53% COD and 92.74% TOC removal efficiencies. The Pt electrode also had the lowest SEC values at all current densities. Although the performances of four MMO electrodes were very close, RuO2-TiO2 achieved a slightly higher performance than the others. It was concluded that Pt anode can be a promising alternative to BDD, which was 18 times more expensive, with its comparable pollutant removal performance and low specific energy consumption.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessboron-doped diamondelectrochemical oxidationlandfill leachatemixed metal oxide electrodeswastewater treatmentArticle10.1002/ep.13722411N/AQ2
