As a potential pollution source, slaughterhouse wastewater (SWW) with development of the meat production and processing sector is a threat in the world. Therefore, the determination of economical, favourable, cost-effective and proper treatment method is crucial for sustainable environmental protection. This study focused on the performance and efficiency of a two-stage process combining biological treatment (BT) with freshwater snails and electrocoagulation (EC) of SWW. Viviparus contectus, Planorbis rubrum, Melanoides tuberculata were used in primary treatment while secondary treatment was realized with EC process. The EC of SWW was performed for reducing both turbidity and chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration to levels compliant with direct-discharge regulations. In addition, the stirring speed, current density, initial pH and reaction time were assessed for evaluation the optimum EC condition. Oxidative stress biomarkers and some antioxidants were assessed in freshwater snails exposed to SWW after 24 and 96 h. The best removal efficiencies of COD (91.43%) and turbidity (92.42%) were obtained at pH 5 and 20 min of operational time by P. rubrum. Notably, MDA (Malondialdehyde) was highest level in M. tuberculata compared to V. contectus and P. rubrum. Overall, removing organic and inorganic pollutants from SWW could be provided with the hybrid process BT/EC as a combining approach.

It was assessed the efficiency of the electrocoagulation (EC) in slaughterhouse wastewater (SW) treatment by using antioxidant parameters of Gammarus pulex. The SW was treated by EC. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and catalase (CAT) activities and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in G. pulex exposed to pre- and post-treated of the SW during 24 h and 96 h were analysed. Standard methods were applied during the analysing process of the physicochemical quality parameters for both untreated and treated SW. All measured physicochemical parameters were decreased following the treatment process via EC. After the treatment process, it was observed that while SOD activities and MDA levels were decreased, CAT activities were increased and GPx activities did not exhibit any change. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated the abilities of untreated SW to promote oxidative stress in model organism. The SOD, CAT activities and MDA levels in G. pulex revealed that EC process were efficient in the SW treatment.
