摘要:Experiments were carried out to treat Acid Blue 113 dye effluent by electro-co agulation using aluminium and mild steel anodes covering a wide range in operating conditions. The influence of operating parameters such as applied current, electrolyte pH and initial effluent concentration on electrocoagulation efficiency has been critically examined. More than 90% removal has been recorded for COD removal under optimum experimental conditions. The electro-coagulation mechanism has been modelled using isotherm and kinetics models. It has been observed from the present analysis that the electro coagulation process follo ws pseudo-second-order kinetics. The Freundlich isotherm model simulations match satisfactorily with the experimental observations
