Abstract There are small amount of persistent organic pollutants existed in water systems,and this does great harm to human beings and biology. It is necessary to remove these materials immediately. However,it is no use for the common water treatment technologies. As some new semi-conductor electrodes doped with additives were prepared,the electrochemical oxidation technology may efficiently oxidize persistent organic pollutants into CO_2 and H_2O under normal temperature and pressure thoroughly,and there are no extra pollutions produced. In this article,the developments of electrochemical oxidation technology on treating persistent organic pollutants were discussed,meantime,the electrochemical oxidation mechanisms and all kinds of influential factors were introduced,and the emphasis was placed on the structures and properties of electrodes.
