BACKGROUND: Olive mill wastewater (OMW) constitutes a very strong agro-industrial wastewater posing severe environmental threats in olive oil producing countries. The main objective of this study was to treat olive mill wastewater by electrochemical oxidation. The variables studied included the type and concentration of electrolyte solutions, voltage and time applied.
