Abstract

Combination of electro-Fenton (EF) oxidation process with sonication for both the degradation of C.I. Reactive Black 5 (RB 5) and removal of chemical oxygen demand (COD) from synthetic textile wastewater was investigated under different operating conditions. Optimal conditions were found as the initial pH of 3, DC current of 0.25A, H2O2 dosage of 800mg/L and electrode distance of 2.5cm for both EF and ultrasound assisted electro-Fenton (sono-EF) processes. However, the combination of EF with sonication was negligibly improved in terms of COD and color removals, compared to EF process.
