Abstract

Objectives: To evaluate the importance of solar-based Electrocoagulation followed by the filtration process in treating the domestic greywater, analyze each operational process’s performance process in highlighting the cost, efficiency and reuse conditions. Analysis: This research aimed to see if the continuous mode EC technique could treat Greywater (GW) with batterypowered solar energy. The EC process running on solar energy is used as a single unit method for Greywater treatment. This explores the hybrid electrocoagulation and filtration process with different electrode material combinations with a flow rate; based on this, and the impact tests are carried out on the flexibility of continuous mode, anode and cathode efficiency. Findings: In this experiment, using a combination of electrodes with different material having continuous flow find about removal efficiencies of different characteristics like COD, Total dissolved solids, Total suspended solids, pH and Turbidity with the variable in the supply of current with fix detention time. Novelty:Experimental approach based on Solar based Electrocoagulation with filtration mechanism is the new concept of approach for treating Domestic Greywater Keywords: Domestic Greywater; Solar energy; Electrocoagulation; Continuous mode; Controlled flowrate; Filtration

Highlights

  • Water is the most essential and crucial element on earth; around 2% to 3% water is useable for household chores and drinking water [1]

  • Initial testing was performed on samples for pH, chemical oxygen demand (COD), Total Solids, Conductivity, Turbidity, Chlorides

  • The continuous Solar Powered Electrocoagulation (SPEC) method of the laboratory scale shown in the present study is substantially efficient using batteries

Summary

Introduction

Water is the most essential and crucial element on earth; around 2% to 3% water is useable for household chores and drinking water [1]. Another use of water is for washing utensils and clothes, for bathing, comes from sinks, wastewater generated from this activity known as Greywater (GW). The greywater is primarily free from organic matters. Wastewater is the combination of greywater and water that comes from latrine, from around 70% to 80% is greywater [2]. Treatment of GW is necessary because treated water release in the freshwater medium. Pollutants are harmful, so wastewater needs to be treated for safe disposal
