Electrocoagulation of simulated reactive dyebath effluent with aluminum and stainless steel electrodes

Synergistic effect in treatment of C.I. Acid Red 2 by electrocoagulation and electrooxidation

“…Acid Red 2 and 0.005 mol L −1 Na 2 SO 4 , pH 3.10, at room temperature and under stirring. Na 2 SO 4 , instead of NaCl which has higher pollutant abatement efficiency, was used as electrolyte because it does not generate adsorbable organically bound halogens (AOX) that can be formed in chloride containing solution [26]. The current density was 2.2 mA/cm 2 .…”

Removal of acid green dye 50 from wastewater by anodic oxidation and electrocoagulation—A comparative study

“…Electrocoagulation has been reported to be efficient in removing dyes from wastewater [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36]. The most widely used electrode materials in electrocoagulation process are aluminum and iron.…”

Decolorization Treatment of Copper Phthalocyanine Textile Dye Wastewater by Electrochemical Methods

“…They are based mainly on direct anodic oxidation at dimensionally stable electrodes [14,15], advanced electrochemical oxidation [16,17] and electrocoagulation with sacrificial aluminium or iron electrodes [18][19][20] the catalyst/electrode is immobilized i.e. without the need to separate the catalyst from the reaction mixture, the variables such as current and potential are easily controlled facilitating automation of the process.…”
