The objectives of the study were 1) to investigate the degree of pollution of phosphorus-loaded water using Lemna minor L. and 2) the absorption capacity of this organic compound by the Lemna minor L. aquatic plant, depending on the temperature parameter.
The aim of this study was the removal of fluoride from a fluoride-rich industrial wastewater by combining two processes, precipitation with a magnesium salt and electrocoagulation. The sacrificial anode was made of Al and the applied current densities were of 100, 200 and 300 A/m2, respectively. The experiments were conducted at pH of 5.2, 6.2 and 7.2, respectively, and the electrolysis time was of 15, 30, 45 and 60 min, respectively. 0.01 M NaCl was supporting electrolyte. The best results were obtained at pH of 6.2, 200 A/m2 and 45 minutes of electrolysis when the specific energy consumption was of 5.6 kWh/m3.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
