Abstract
The oily wastewater was treated by electrocoagulation with Fe78Si9B13 amorphous ribbons as anode and graphite plates as cathode under such processing parameters as different pH values and current density, respectively. The degradation effect on the oily wastewater was characterized by chemical demand oxygen (COD), while the ribbons before and after using were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results indicate that under the conditions of pH = 3 and current density being 3.125A/cm2, the optimal COD removal efficiency was obtained to be 73.22%. Compared with the ordinary crystalline iron plate, the COD removal efficiency of resultant wastewater degraded by the amorphous ribbons is more than doubled. Simultaneously, the Fe78Si9B13 amorphous ribbons exhibit good structural stability even after four cycles of using.
