Popis: | Decolorization of dye waste water is performed using a tubular electrochemical reactor. Stainless steel and oxide coated on titanium mesh acts as the cathode and anode respectively. Experiments were conducted in batch with recirculation mode. The effect of operating parameters such as current density, initial dye concentration, flow rate and supporting electrolyte concentration on decolorization of Acid red dye has been studied and the results were analysed using Taguchi method. A residence time distribution (RTD) study has been conducted in a tubular electrochemical reactor and an axial dispersion model has been developed to determine percentage decolorization. The model results are compared with experimental results and it was found that the model satisfactorily matches with the experimental results with high correlation coefficient. |
