Özet

The treatment of real textile wastewater was carried out in the oxidant assisted electro-oxidation (EO) process, in which coated and uncoated titanium with multiple metal oxides as the anode and graphite rod as the cathode were used. The performance of EO process assisted with S2O82-, H2O2 and O3 as oxidant was evaluated with Pt-Co, number of colors and COD removal efficiencies. Process conditions were optimized with Taguchi Experimental Design. Parameters with significant effects on performance variables were determined with ANOVA. Optimum conditions of the oxidant assisted EO process were determined as RuO2-IrO2-Ti anode, oxidant type S2O82-, pH 3.0, 25 minutes oxidation time. Pt-Co, color number and COD removal efficiencies at optimum conditions were obtained as 83.37%, 82.6 % and 51.17%, respectively. From the ANOVA results, it was determined that the most important operating parameter among all response parameters was the oxidation time.
