Electrochemical oxidation of 4-chloro-3-methyl phenol (CMP) was examined using Ti/SnO(2)-Sb/PbO(2) anodes. The physicochemical properties of the electrodes were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical measurements. The degradation was studied by monitoring the total organic carbon
