N2 - The presence of arsenic (As) in groundwater hinders access to safe clean water for all. Even low concentrations of As pose high risk to human health. Electrified technologies for physical As separation emerge as decentralized water treatment alternatives. Herein, these upcoming systems based on electrocoagulation, electrodialysis, and electrosorption are presented as feasible systems to manage As pollution. Electrified technologies are described in terms of their principles, limitations, and technology readiness level classification. Furthermore, challenges associated to the difference between the As concentration in the environment and the concentration tested at lab scale are discussed. Finally, an outlook and perspective is provided.
