Optimizing Arsenic Removal via Electrocoagulation

Electrocoagulation was used to remove arsenic from groundwater, with total energy consumption as the response variable to optimize using the Taguchi method. The process parameters optimized were interelectrode distance, current density, liquid motion driving mode, and electrode area-reactor volume ratio to minimize energy usage for arsenic removal.

Arsenic (As) removal from groundwater (GW) was carried out by

electrocoagulation (EC). The total energy consumption (ET) was


taken as a response variable according to the smaller is better
approach

Taguchi method was used to optimise the process parameters that


significantly affect this energy consumption, which are:
Interelectrode distance (d),
Current density (i),
Liquid motion driving mode (LM)
Electrode area-reactor volume ratio (A/V)
