Removal Of Oil From Oily Wastewater By Electrochemical With Iron And Aluminium Plate Electrodes.

Abstract

This paper is intended to provide a review of the published literature on the topic of electrocoagulation . Water treatment processes for oil and COD are discussed, including electrocoagulation technology. Electrochemical technology is a simple and environmentally friendly technique that produces less sludge compared to other treatments. Coagulant produces from dissolution of the sacrificial anode and formation of metal hydroxides. Efficiency of the process depends on the distance between electrodes, electrodes submerged depth and number of electrodes.
