摘要
Arsenic removal from water/wastewater has been the subject of top priority among researchers/industries in recent years due its notorious characteristics. A novel technique of electrocoagulation has been attempted in the present investigation to remove arsenic from aqueous solution. Experiments were carried out in a batch electrochemical reactor using aluminum and mild steel sacrificial anodes. The mechanism of electrocoagulation has been modeled using adsorption isotherm kinetics. Experimental runs were designed by response surface methodology and the influence of combined effects of operating parameters on arsenic removal has been critically examined. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
