Composite electrodes with different graphene (GN)/TiO2 ratios and nano-activated carbon electrodes were prepared for electrocatalytic performance comparison. The electrodes were loaded with platinum (Pt) by use of chloroplatinic acid to promote their performance. Reactive Black 5 (RBk5) dye wastewater was treated as a challenging pollutant by use of advanced electrochemical oxidation technology. The composite materials were characterized by Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), and Energy Disperse Spectroscopy (EDS). Results showed that the graphene electrode was prepared successfully and verified because all elements were uniformly loaded on the conductive carbon cloth. The effects of several operating parameters including material types, pH, initial concentration of RBk5, and current density on the removal performance of RBk5 were also assessed. The supporting electrolyte was NaCl solution of 1 g L−1. The concentration of RBk5 was detected using an ultraviolet spectrophotometer with a detection wavelength of 600 nm. The optimum parameters of the experiment were GN/TiO2 ratio of 1:4 and pH of 6.6. The removal efficiency of RBk5 could be higher than 95% under an initial concentration of RBk5 of 5 ppm and a current density of 2.5 mA·cm-2 when reaction time was 30 min.

Water content and Strength of Dredged Soil (DS) obtained from Aliyar reservoir were measured after dewatering using Electro Osmosis (EO). The operational conditions adopted include electrode material (Cu, Fe, Al), voltage (6V, 12V, 24V) and duration (24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours). 27 combinations of experiments were piloted to explore the influence of operational conditions on water content and strength in shear. Maximum reduction in water content was obtained in Fe electrode with 24V and 72 hours of duration for which the water content falls to 27.22% from 87% and the corresponding shear strength is 27.30 kPa. Further, the loss of electrode materials during EO process was also measured.
