the performance of a plug flow electrocoagulation reactor for the treatment of cattle abattoir(slaughterhouse) wastewater was investigated. a cylindrical iron reactor was operated as a cathode at arecycling batch mode while three iron rods located at the center of the reactor were used as an anode. theeffects of different parameters, including the current density, the supporting electrolyte dos...

Titanium-silicon alloys have been electrochemically extracted from the multi-component titanium compounds in molten calcium chloride electrolyte. Sintered pressed pellets of titanium-bearing compounds served as the cathode, and the electrochemical experiments were systematically carried out at 900 °C, 3.1 V and 1000 °C, 3.8 V using a graphite-based anode and an improved inert-oxygen-ion-conduct...

The basic electro-kinetic process is defined by forced/induced movement of target pollutants in soil/sand medium under applied electric field low strength between electrodes of opposite polarities. There are several specific mechanisms that contribute to this movement of pollutants. However, one study suggested that the most important ones are electro-osmosis, electro migration, and electrophor...

Electro-magneto-thermo-elastic response of a thick double-layered cylinder made from a homogeneous interlayer and a functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) outer layer is investigated. Material properties of the FGPM layer vary along radius based on the power law distribution. The vessel is subjected to an internal pressure, an induced electric potential, a uniform magnetic field and ...

BACKGROUND Annually, large quantities of dyes are produced and consumed in different industries. The discharge of highly colored textile effluents to the aquatic environments causes serious health problems in living organisms. This paper investigates the performance of each of the electro-oxidation and electro-reduction pathways in the removal of reactive red 120 (RR120) from synthetic textile ...

BACKGROUND Bipolar electro-coagulation has a reported efficacy in treating epilepsy involving functional cortex by pure electro-coagulation or combination with resection. However, the mechanisms of bipolar electro-coagulation are not completely known. We studied the acute cortical blood flow and histological changes after bipolar electro-coagulation in 24 patients with intractable temporal lobe...

In the present work, the modified nickel electrode was electrochemically fabricated and tested for the electro-oxidation of paracetamol in alkaline media. The methods of cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronoamperometry (CA), and impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were used to determine kinetic parameters such as transfer coefficient (α), the catalytic reaction rate constants (k), and the diffusion coeffici...
