Treatment of Petroleum Based Industry Wastewater Using Electrocoagulant Enhance by Conventional Coagulant

Wastewater treatment is a crucial part that faces by every industry. Growing of demand for petroleum based products and growing of petroleum based industry, lead to the increased of wastewater from the petroleum based industry. Generally, a series of physical, chemical and biological treatment will...
