Electrochemical oxidation of textile effluents and further treatment by coupled system electrooxidation using Prosopis cineraria

Abstract

This paper deals with study of physico-chemical analysis of waste water contaminated by effluents discharge from textile industries of Sanganer town, Jaipur and their treatment using electrochemical method of oxidation using boron-doped diamond electrodes and coupled system of electrooxidation with Prosopis cineraria. The degradation of pollutants has been confirmed by estimation of removal efficiencies of various parameters like turbidity, colour, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biological oxygen demand (BOD) before and after treatment of textile effluents contaminated water.
