Abstract:Electrocoagulation (EC) is an efficient treatment method that involves the electrodissolution of anodes, the formation of coagulants in situ, and the production of hydrogen at the cathode, facilitating the removal of pollutants by flotation. Industry in general aims to reduce the contaminant load, expressed as chemical oxygen demand (COD), and EC effluent treatment is particularly effective in this process. The development of EC processes has been an efficient alternative for the treatment of effluents with hi… Show more
