| Popis: | This work presents the highest color removal efficiency for Textile wastewater by Electrocoagulation (EC) process using Aluminum as a sacrificial anode which is presently used for the purification of many types of water and wastewater. The effecting parameters such as applied electrical current, electrolysis time and initial pH were studied to achieve higher removals. In this process, sample was taken from real effluent of reactive dyes fabric. The performance of Electrocoagulation process was carried out in batch reactor at regular interval of 20 minutes. Obtained results indicated the most effective color removal efficiency was achieved at 0.75A of applied electrical Current. They were (97.5% - 98.1%), at electrolysis time of 120 minutes, pH10, pH7 respectively and COD removal efficiency was (54 % - 65%) at 0.75A, 0.9A respectively. In this work, the initial pH did not strongly affect the removal efficiencies significantly over a wide range. Therefore, adjustment of initial pH before treatment was not required in this practical application. The power consumption was found to be 6 kWh/m3. To determine COD removal rate dependency to electrical current, a kinetic study was carried out and data were in good covenant with the first order kinetic model. |
