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...

background: car wash waste water contains several contaminants such as organic matter, oil, grease, detergents and phosphates, all of which are harmful for the environment. in this study, the application of electrocoagulation (ec) to treat car wash waste water has been studied, and the operating parameters optimized. the electro-fenton (ef) for further contaminant removal was also investigated....

BACKGROUND Discharge of grey wastewater into the ecological system causes the negative impact effect on receiving water bodies. METHODS In this present study, electrocoagulation process (EC) was investigated to treat grey wastewater under different operating conditions such as initial pH (4-8), current density (10-30 mA/cm2), electrode distance (4-6 cm) and electrolysis time (5-25 min) by usi...

In this study, the treatability of rose processing wastewater was investigated by using electrocoagulation (EC) methods compared to classical chemical (CC) and Fenton application (FA) processes. High chemical oxygen demand (COD) and dissolved solids contents were detected in the wastewater. Among these treatment applications, it was found that the EC unit is the most effective treatment techniq...

Objectives: To evaluate the importance of solar-based Electrocoagulation followed by filtration process in treating domestic greywater, analyze each operational process’s performance highlighting cost, efficiency and reuse conditions. Analysis: This research aimed to see if continuous mode EC technique could treat Greywater (GW) with batterypowered solar energy. The running on energy is used as...

Electrocoagulation (EC) is an electrochemical technique which has been employed in the treatment of various kinds of wastewater. In this work the potential use of EC for the treatment of palm oil mill effluent (POME) was investigated. In a laboratory scale, POME from a factory site in Chumporn Province (Thailand) was subjected to EC using aluminum as electrodes and sodium chloride as supporting...

Cork boiling wastewater (CBW) is a highly polluted and difficult to treat effluent resultant from the cork manufacturing industry. This study aims evaluate new, reliable, efficient, sustainable process this effluent. paper tested electrocoagulation as pre- post-treatment improve already existing physicochemical treatment in production facility Portugal. In procedures (PC), addition of different...

The efficacy of a laboratory electrocoagulation (EC) system for treating egg processing plant wastewater (WW) is reported. For simulated and industrial egg processingWW, chemical oxygen demand, turbidity, and total suspended solids (TSS) were reduced 92 to 97%, 97%, and 99%, respectively, after treatment with EC. The final TSS concentration and turbidity values were 30 mg/ L and 5 formazin turb...
