Popis: The application and design of treatment systems in wastewater are necessary due to antibiotics' potential toxicity and resistant genes on residual effluent. This work evaluated a coupled bio-electrochemical system to reduce chloramphenicol (CAP) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) on swine wastewater (SWW). SWW characterization found CAP of 99.99%, respectively. This coupled system can be applied to eliminate antibiotics and other organic pollutants in agricultural, industrial, municipal, and other wastewaters. HIGHLIGHTS Preliminary application of an anaerobic Reactor (UASB) allowed a reduction of 62.4% initial concentration of chloramphenicol.; The optimization of the electrooxidation process, for chloramphenicol (CAP) removal, reduces operation time and current intensity.; UASB + EO combined treatment allowed 82.35 and >99.9% of COD and CAP elimination.; The coupled system proved to be helpful for the CAP treatment in swine wastewater;
