DOMESTIC WASTE WATER TREATMENT

BY ELECTROCOAGULATION

USING COPPER AND ALUMUNIUM

ELECTRODES
 BACKGROUND
THE RISE OF WATER POLLUTION
Wastewater is the main cause for irreversible damages to the
environment, contributes to the reduction of fresh water reserves
and also creating threats to the next generation. That’s the reason
why wastewater should be treated to reduce the pollutants and
achieve the permissible limit for its reutilization

WASTEWATER TREATMENT
One of the challenging tasks faced by scientists and engineers today
is to provide safe water to support healthy human life. But human
activities always generate wastewaters which contain various
pollutants that create problems to aquatic life and contaminate water
resources

ELECTRO-CHEMICAL TREATMENT
Many water and wastewater treatment technologies have been
developed in last few decades for the removal of aquatic pollutants.
During the last years, the electrochemical methods have been
developed and used as alternative options for the remediation of
water and wastewaters mainly due to their advantages
 PROBLEMS OF
THE RESEARCH

1. HOW EFFECTIVE DOES THE COPPER AND ALUMUNIUM

ELECTRODES REDUCE THE CONTAMINANTS?

2. WHICH VOLTAGE DOES GIVE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT

RESULT TO REDUCE THE CONTAMINATS?

3. WHICH ELECTROLYSIS TIME DOES GIVE THE BEST RESULT

TO REDUCE THE CONTAMINANTS?

 SIGNIFICANCE OF
THE STUDY

• MAY REDUCE THE CONTAMINATS RATE

WHICH COINTAINED IN THE DOMESTIC
WASTEWATER

• IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF DOMESTIC

WASTEWATER BEFORE IT IS RELEASED TO
THE WATER STREAM

 SCOPE AND
DELIMITATION

1. THIS RESEARCH FOCUSES INTO DOMESTIC WASTEWATER

TREATMENT

2. THE ELECTROLYSIS WAS OPERATED AT VARIOUS

VOLTAGES (7V, 14V, 20V) AND VARIOUS TIME (10 MIN, 20

MIN, 30 MIN)
