Mercury removal from wastewater by electrocoagulation
In the present study,electrocoagulation was used for the treatment of synthetic solutions containing mercury(II). Study was performed based on synthetic petrochemical waste contaminated with mercury and heavy metals.The objectives of this study are to investigate the efficiency of electrocoagulation...
