42 solution as a function of anodes surface area (SA, m2) to reactor active volume
43 (VECR, m3). Linear regression equation: CER = 8.3∙(SA/VECR) + 9.7 (R2 = 0.89). Error
44 bars represent ± one standard deviation of 3 replicates except for the data point
45 with highest SA/VECR.

5758 Figure S8: Recorded electrolysis voltage and current of the ECR during a typical
59 month of full usage of AMD prototype. Variations in cycles are due to ECR turning
60 off and on following the automation mechanism Figure 3. The overall increase in
61 current drawn after 01/23/2016 can be attributed to a higher concentration of
62 Cl- in the wastewater due to recycled treated water being used for flushing. The
63 additional urine of the users of the toilet increases the quantitiy of Cl- in the
64 system. (see Table 4).
