Abstract

In this work, electro-oxidation of amaranth dye wastewater has been performed using dimensionally stable anode (DSA) and stainless-steel cathode. Ti/TiO2-Ru2O-IrO2 ternary electrode was used as the anode. Effect of various parameters such as current density, pH, voltage and time on the degradation and decolouration of dye was studied. Optimum conditions for the treatment of dye wastewater in batch setup were found. The complete decolouration was achieved in the first 5 min of the process. Decolouration and degradation of amaranth dye wastewater followed pseudo-first-order kinetics. The present research work unlocks the new horizon towards the degradation of dye wastewater employing the once through continuous process.
