Advanced Treatment of Coking Wastewater by Electro-Coagulation

Article Preview

Abstract:

The degradation behavior and mechanism of biologically pretreated coking wastewater (BPCW) were investigated by means of a lab-scale electro-coagulation (EC) in static methods. The results showed that the percent COD and color removal can reach 80.5 % and 95.4 % respectively under the optimal conditions (initial pH of 8.0; reaction time of 30 min; current density of 14.0 mA/cm2 and NaCl dosage 1.6 g/L).
