Efficient De-colorization of Methylene Blue by Electro-coagulation Method: Comparison of Iron and Aluminum Electrode

In this study, removal of methylene blue by electro-coagulation method using aluminum and iron electrodes was investigated. The influence of the operating parameters such as contact time, current density, anode type, inter-electrodes distance, initial and final pH and energy consumption rate was determined. Dye removal was increased with increases in solution pH, current density and c...

Quality and treatability of seafood processing wastewater using coagulation – flocculation

Introduction: Seafood processing wastewater, which contain high concentrations of pollutants discharged to receiving waters, will reduced the quality of these water resources. The present study was conducted to assess the quality and treatability of wastewater result from fish market in Bandar Abbas using coagulation – flocculation process. Methods: This research was a cross sectional stu...

Removal of heavy metals and hardness from groundwater via electro-coagulation method

Groundwater makes up an important part of global freshwater resources, though it is often threatened by overuse of natural resources along with abundant production of wastes in modern society. This study aims to investigate the removal of three heavy metals including nickel, cadmium, and lead from groundwater via electrocoagulation, a suitable method for treatment of water-soluble compounds, de...

Investigation of Electro-coagulation Process for Phosphate and Nitrate Removal from Sugarcane Wastewaters

Background: Highly-concentrated phosphate and nitrate anions from sugarcane wastewater are often discharged into public waters without standardized treatments. This study assessed the effects of electrical coagulation, initial pH and reaction time in the removal of phosphate and nitrate pollutants. Methods: We used aluminum electrodes to remove the pollutants at Hakhim Farabi Agricultural and ...
