AbstractElectrochemically active carbon nanotube (CNT) filters have been developed as a highly efficient technology for water and wastewater treatment during the last few years. CNT filters have been widely used to adsorb chemical and biological contaminants due to their high stability, great flexibility, and large specific surface area. Electrochemically active CNT filters provide additional electrooxidation of the adsorbed contaminants and have been proven to be a highly effective treatment technology in a few recent lab-scale studies. The working principles, impacting factors, and some of the latest development of electrochemically active CNT filters are reviewed in this paper. The existing challenges and future perspectives are also discussed.
