Electrochemical method was carried out to remove fluoride ions from pretreated photovoltaic wastewater using an electrocoagulation technique, and using aluminum sheets as a working electrode. Distance between electrodes, number of electrodes, pH and current density were determined to be optimum at 1 cm, 3, 7, and 18.51 A/m(2), respectively. An operation cost including sacrificial electrode materials and electrical energy requirements was also performed for the treatment process. Under the experimental conditions energy consumption was determined as 0.32 kW h/m(3). The results show that the electrocoagulation can be applied to photovoltaic wastewater post-treatment.
