Electrochemical Treatment for Municipal Wastewater: Parametric Optimization Through Response Surface Methodology

EasyChair Preprint 12724

Abstract

Electrochemical treatment process is one of the efficient techniques for municipal wastewater treatment. Central Composite Design (CCD) under Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is utilized to optimize the process variable such as pH: (3→11), Time: (20→100 min) and Electrolyte Concentration: (0.03→0.07 mol/min) during treatment of municipal wastewater using electrochemical treatment. The study is focused on the removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) from municipal wastewater. CCD predicted maximum COD removal efficiency is observed 70.01 % at optimum operating conditions like pH: 6.83, Time: 74.8 min and electrolyte concentration: 0.05 mol/min.

Keyphrases: Chemical Oxygen Demand, Electrocoagulation, Municipal wastewater
