Nickel removal from wastewater using electrocoagulation process with zinc electrodes under various operating conditions: performance investigation, mechanism exploration, and cost analysis

Omar A. Shaker et al.

Summary: This study investigates the removal of nickel (Ni) from synthetic and real wastewater using the electrocoagulation method. The results demonstrate that electrocoagulation has a better performance in Ni removal compared to chemical coagulation. The optimal operating conditions are a current density of 10 mA/cm(2), a pH of 9.2, and a gap distance of 4 cm. The kinetic data are best represented by the second-order Lagergren model. The maximum electrical energy consumption for Ni removal is 23.79 KWh/m(3).

Removal of microplastics and attached heavy metals from secondary effluent of wastewater treatment plant using interpenetrating bipolar plate electrocoagulation

Runyu Xu et al.

Summary: In this study, the mixed pollutants of microplastics and heavy metals were effectively removed from the secondary effluent of a wastewater treatment plant using an interpenetrating bipolar plate electrocoagulation (IBPE) reactor. The experimental process showed high removal efficiency for both heavy metals and microplastics. The optimization of removal efficiency was achieved with specific current density, initial pH, and reaction time. Mathematical models and pseudo-voltammetry curve analysis provided insights into the changes in removal rate over time and the complexation forms of heavy metals and surface groups of microplastics. The results suggested that IBPE could be a valuable clean technology for simultaneously removing microplastics and heavy metals from wastewater.
