Abstract

Determines the technical and economic feasibility of using electrocoagulation-filtration for arsenic removal. Optimizes the process for oxidation of As(III) to As(V) and removal of As(V). Also recommends the optimum EC - F processes suitable for representative small community groundwaters contaminated with arsenic. Research partner: AWTP. Published in 2011.
