Electrocoagulation: A Novel Waste Water Treatment Method
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
ABSTRACT: A renewed interest in electrocoagulation has spurred by the search for reliable, cost effective method for the treatment of polluted water. Electrocoagulation present a robust novel and innovative alternative in which a sacrificial metal anode corrodes, due to an applied electric potential, while the simultaneous evolution of hydrogen at the cathode which is removed by flotation. This has the major advantage of providing active cations required for coagulation, without increasing the salinity of the water. Electrocoagulation is a complex process with a multitude of mechanisms operating synergistically to remove the pollutants from the water. Different options exist for key mechanisms and reactor configurations. This paper presents an in-depth discussion and consideration of the factors that are the requirements for the optimum performance of this technology.
