electrocoagulation
The treatment of water and wastewater using electrocoagulation (EC) is a newer method. It combines the benefits of electrochemistry, flotation, and coagulation. Electric current is used in an electrochemical procedure to eliminate dissolved, emulsified, or suspended contaminants from water. Because it is an environmentally benign choice that may create the least sludge, requires no chemical additions, and has the smallest footprint without impacting the water quality after treatment, electrochemical wastewater treatment technology has started to recover attention. P rinciple of electrocoagulation It's essential principle is based on how water molecules respond in a redox reaction to a strong electric field. In the process of oxidizing the anode material, coagulating agents are released, forming metal hydroxide complexes that neutralize particulate materials and produce agglomerates. Working A number of processes happen at once when...
