Thermodynamic Study for Arsenic Removal from Freshwater by Using Electrocoagulation Process

Removal of arsenic from water by electrocoagulation.

In the present study electrocoagulation (EC) has been evaluated as a treatment technology for arsenite [As(III)] and arsenate [As(V)] removal from water. Laboratory scale experiments were conducted with three electrode materials namely, iron, aluminum and titanium to assess their efficiency. Arsenic removal obtained was highest with iron electrodes. EC was able to bring down aqueous phase arsen...

The Kinetic and Thermodynamic Study for Decolorization of Congo red from Aqueous Solution Using Electrocoagulation Process

The removal of color from synthetic wastewater containing Congo red was experimentally investigated using electrocoagulation process. The effects of operational parameters such as current density, electrolysis time, electrolyte concentration, electrode distance, initial dye concentration, initial pH and temperature on color removal efficiency were investigated in this study. The tentative resul...

Humic acid removal from aqueous solutions by peroxi-electrocoagulation process

Background: Natural organic matter is the cause of many problems associated with water treatment such as the presence of disinfection by-products (DBPs) and membrane fouling during water filtration. In this study, the performance of the peroxi-electrocoagulation process (PEP) was investigated for the removal of humic acids (HAs) from aqueous solutions. Methods: PEP was carried out for the remov...
