Abstract:This study investigated COD removal by electrocoagulation in both synthetic and real wastewater using different anode material. Experiments were conducted in a batch-scale EC cell using aluminium, iron and copper electrodes as anode and stainless-steel electrode as cathode. Effects of different parameters including pH (4, 7, and 10), time (10 to 60 min), voltage (3 to 12 V) were studied in order to evaluate the efficiency of electrocoagulation process. The initial synthetic COD concentration was 1000 mg/l. The… Show more
