OBJECTIVE
The study deals with the removal of
Methylene Blue dye during the
electro-coagulation process .
Effects of electrolyte concentration,
dye concentration and pH on the decolorization efficiency have been
investigated
WASTE WATER;
CHARACTERSTICS
What is waste water ?
Wastewater is sewage, stormwater, and
water that has been used for various
purposes around the community. Unless
properly treated, wastewater can harm
public health and the environment.
EXISTING WATER
TREATMENT METHODS
Chemical systems
- Dependence on Chemicals
- Generate more dangerous side reactions
- Large risk during execution
Biological Systems / Bacteria
- Requires extensive land
- Requires more time (not effective)
- Media should be in accordance with the
characteristics of
bacteria.
Physical System
- Specific and Characteristically
ELECTRO-COAGULATION
Electrocoagulation (EC), also known as short
wave electrolysis, is a technique used for
wastewater treatment, industrial process water,
and hospital wastewater etc.

CONCLUSION
The enhancement of EC of dye solution (Methylene Blue)
by means of application of electromagnetic field was
studied and the following conclusions were obtained:
EC was affected by pH, the electrolyte concentration, initial
dye concentration and time of electrolysis.
The dye was effectively removed (80%) after 20 min.
The optimum conditions for the removal of MB dye with an
initial concentration of 50 mg/L are: 20 min electrolysis
time, current density of 4Amp.
The optimum electrolyte concentration was found to be 2
wt.%
The optimum pH is 8.
