The degradations of Reactive Brilliant Red X-3B (RBRX-3B) in an electric-assisted microbial system (EAMS), a microbial system (MS) and an electrochemical system (ECS) were compared. The degradation efficiency of RBRX-3B in EAMS (99.8%) was 10.8% higher than the sum in MS (61.9%) and ECS (27.1%) at 24h at the optimal voltage of 0.4V, indicating that there was a synergistic effect between the electrode reaction and the biodegradation. The RBRX-3B degradation in EAMS followed first-order kinetic model. The activation energy of RBRX-3B degradation in EAMS was calculated to be 60.53kJmol⁻¹ by the Arrhenius equation, showing that the degradation rate of RBRX-3B mainly depended on bio-chemical reaction. RBRX-3B was degraded to both low-strength toxic compounds and nontoxic compounds in EAMS and those intermediates were easier to be further degraded. The pathway of RBRX-3B degradation in EAMS was different from that in MS.
