AB  - This study investigates the hybrid mediated electrochemical oxidation (HMEO) 
      technology, which is a newly developed non thermal electrochemical oxidation 
      process for organic destruction. A combination of ozone and ultrasonication 
      processes to the mediated electrochemical oxidation (MEO) process is termed as 
      hybrid mediated electrochemical oxidation. The electrochemical cell was developed 
      in this laboratory. In the present study, several organic compounds, such as 
      phenol, benzoquinone and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), were chosen as 
      the model organic pollutants to be destructed by the hybrid process. The organic 
      destruction was monitored based on the CO2 generation and total organic carbon 
      (TOC) reduction. The HMEO process was found to be extremely effective in the 
      destruction of all the target organics chosen in this study. The information 
      obtained from this study will provide an insight in adopting this technique for 
      dealing with more recalcitrant organics (POPs).
