Abstract EN
The aim of this study is to investigate the performance of batch electro coagulation (EC) using iron electrodes with bipolar configuration for simultaneous removal of chromium (Cr3+) from synthetic wastewater.
The influences of current density (from 2 to 25 mA/cm2 ), initial metal concentration (from 100 to 250 mg/L) and supporting electrolyte (0-12 mmol/L Na2SO4) on removal efficiency are explored in a batch stirred cell to determine the best experimental conditions.
The results indicate that EC was very efficient to remove Cr3+ from the synthetic wastewater having an initial concentration of 250 mg/L of Cr3+ under the best experimental conditions.
At the current density of 15 mA/cm2 with a total energy consumption of ∼18.5 kWh/m3 , more than 98.7% removal value was achieved for Cr3+ after 20 min EC treatment.
Time of 20 minutes EC treatment was chosen as optimum time to gain less than 4 mg Fe/L in the treated water
