Project Purpose & Motivation
Purpose: Assess electrocoagulation (EC) as a technology for municipal and industrial water purification.—measure removal of: As, Si, Ca, Mg & dissolved organics
Motivation• EC can be used to remove a broad spectrum of contaminants
and reduce TSS• EC can be inexpensive and straightforward to implement • Anions associated with chemical coagulants (e.g. Cl and SO4
2) are avoided with EC—so, EC is salt-free and pH neutral

Summary• The time required for an EC unit to reach steady state
is significant
• Fe dissolution is approximated by Faraday’s law
• Al dissolution is greater than Faraday’s law predicts
• EC simply and effectively reduces the arsenic and silica content of municipal and industrial water
• The removal of calcium and magnesium from water via EC is positively affected by the presence of arsenic
