Phosphorus Removal by Electrochemical Using Aluminum Electrode

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, the removal of phosphorus from wastewater was performed using electro-coagulation by Aluminum electrode. Several parameters was investigated such effect of pH (1.5;3;5;9;11) ,effect of initial concentration (5mg/l ;10mg/l) and concentration of COD (300-800 mg/l). Removal of phosphorus without optimization of the parameters is 77 %. Optimization of the parameters for removal of phosphorus shows, effect of initial pH, initial concentration of phosphate and COD are 93 % , 93 % and 90.3% to 55min with 0.8 A, respectively. This proves a great optimization of phosphorus removal.
