The treatment of tannery effluent is of great interest as it contains a complex mixture of pollutants, primarily chromium. The disposal of this wastewater can have adverse effects on the environment and aquatic life, which is an emerging problem for the environment. In this work, electrocoagulation is used to remove chromium from real tannery wastewater, focusing on performance optimization and sludge characterization. Electrocoagulation experiments were conducted using an electrochemical cell with iron electrodes immersed in a specific volume of tannery wastewater. Operating parameters, such as the initial chromium concentration, pH and current density as well as power consumption were evaluated to determine optimum chromium removal. The optimization was performed using Response Surface Methodology combined with central composite design. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to determine the response, residual, probability, 3D surface and contour plots. The maximum chromium removal was 100% at the optimum values of 13 mA/cm2, 7 and 750 ppm for current density, pH and concentration, respectively.

This study was aimed to investigate the chromium removal from the tannery wastewater through electrocoagulation. The zinc and copper plates were used as electrodes for the electrocoagulation process. The effectiveness of the electrocoagulation for chromium removal efficiency was examined investigating various parameters: applied voltage, time, and current density. In batch experiment, 500 mL chromium-containing wastewater was used for electrocoagulation. Chromium content in the raw wastewater and after treatment at optimized conditions was 340.1 and 6.9 mg/L, respectively. The efficiency of chromium removal and reduction of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) was at 98.0 and 64.6%, accordingly. Although total dissolved solids (TDS) was slightly increased. The increment of current density enhances forming zinc hydroxide which causes the damage of electrodes. Electrocoagulation is an effective technique to remove chromium from the wastewater especially from the tannery wastewater. Journal of Engineering Science 12(1), 2021, 29-34
