Abstract Abstract The process of electrocoagulation (EC) occurs through the production of specific coagulants under the influence of an electric current passing through a sacrificial electrode. It is a simple and cost-effective method. This makes it widely used water and wastewater treatment method. The application of this method includes the use of EC unit with two electrodes of aluminum metal. We aimed to develop a new EC using aluminum electrodes as anode to remove Sunset Yellow dye from aqueous solution. The performance of the method was validated by applying direct current to remove the dye considering the effects of applied current density. The pH of the treated solution, dye initial concentration, and electrolysis time were studied and the effects of these parameters were optimized. |
