Abstract
SS and Cu electrodes were used in the electrochemical coagulation to treat pulp and paper mill wastewater using 4SS and 3SS 1Cu electrodes by applying cell voltages 12 – 24 V. Optimal cell voltage 18V showed COD removal of 89.64% for 4SS electrode and 84.74% for 3SS 1Cu electrode with simultaneous color removal of 99% and 90%. Other control factors used for optimal operation are sludge volume index (SVI), filterability, etc. SVI values were <100 mL/g for 4SS electrodes. The filtration characteristics of the ECC-treated sludge were established to determine the specific cake resistance (α) and the resistance of the filter medium (R m ). Lower α and R m values for 4SS and 3SS-1Cu electrodes were found at 60 min ET. Proximate and ultimate analyses showed that 4SS and 3SS-1Cu sludge could be used as additive as well as adsorbent material for treating low strength wastewater.
