Cu (II) and nickel (II) removal from contaminated water by electrolysis method using graphite electrode / Muhammad Azril Hashim

Electrolysis effluent treatment is based on the anodic dissolution of metals, which form their hydroxides, and the pollutants are removed by sorption, coagulation, and other processes occurring in the space between the electrodes. The performance of electrolysis with carbon anode, in the treatment o...

The performance of electrolysis with carbon anode, in the treatment of metals ions (Cu²⁺and Ni²⁺) containing contaminated water, has been investigated. Several working parameters, such as pH, current density, and time taken for the reaction were studied in attempt to achieve a higher removal capacity.
