Popis: This work presents the research on the treatment of an anthraquinone derivatives of disperse dye Blue SI from aqueous solution using aluminium for the optimization of operational parameters like pH, current density, addition of electrolyte, contact time for the color removal efficiency (CRE) and the results are compared with the performance of copper electrodes in electrocoagulation (EC). The parameters for maximum CRE was found with Al at current density 40 Am-2, time 10 min at pH 7, and for Cu at 60 Am-2 15 min, at pH 6 were optimized. The characterization of the treated water using HPLC, MS studies revealed intermediate compounds. From the XPS analysis of the sludge obtained, the mechanism of EC was deduced. Treated aqueous solution was studied for its phytotoxicity with Vigna radiata and ecotoxicity studies were conducted on Artemia salina to study the toxicity effect of the intermediatory products in the treated dye solution. Blue SI dye aqueous solution treated with aluminium electrodes shows no or lesser toxicity in plants as well as in ecotoxic study compared with copper electrodes.
