The Treatment of Copper-Containing Wastewater by Electrolysis-Enhanced Micro-Electrolysis Fluidized Bed Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

The effect of electrolysis-enhanced micro-electrolysis fluidized bed technology on treating cooper-containing wastewater had been systematic researched. Operation conditions including applied flow rate, voltage, solution pH and reaction time on the copper ions (Cu2+) removal effect, had been studied scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis had been used to characterize the surface features of copper crystals in the fillers surface. The results show that the Cu2+ mainly removed by electrochemical deposition, the optimum operation conditions are: flow rate is 22mm/s, voltage is 12V, initial pH=4, the response time of 30 min.
