Key points

  • Abstract Waste from treated wood can be hazardous to the environment and human health
  • Therefore, research is needed to investigate what to do with this waste
  • The electro-removal technique is a viable technique to remove the copper, chromium and arsenic metals contained in the CCA-treated wood
  • But is the CCA really removed? the present study investigated this cause, using the living organism Trametes versicolor to verify this hypothesis

Abstract

Abstract Waste from treated wood can be hazardous to the environment and human health. Therefore, research is needed to investigate what to do with this waste. The electro-removal technique is a viable technique to remove the copper, chromium and arsenic metals contained in the CCA-treated wood. But is the CCA really removed? the present study investigated this cause, using the living organism Trametes versicolor to verify this hypothesis.
