Removal of Nickel Ions from Wastewater using Carbon Fiber as a Cathode in Electrochemical Reactor
The removal of Nickel ions from wastewater polluted with Nickel sulfate using carbon fiber as a cathode in electrochemical reactor (electrodepostion) was studied.Electrochemical technique would be an option to treat wastewater since it is friendly to the environment without secondary pollution And Carbon fiber (CF) is attractive to achieve high electrochemical efficiency.The effect of major factors on electrodepostion such as concentration,flow rate,and potentials was studied; also the process correlation was investigated under the present range of conditions,it was found that the increase of initial Nickel ion concentration increased the rate of electrodeposition,also the increase of flow rate enhance the removal of Nickel by electrodeposition this are not necessarily restricted to the removal of this metal.The data were correlated by the following overall mass transfer correlation: Sh = 8.4 Re024 Sc0-33 Finally The present study has revealed that electrodeposition on a Carbon Fiber Cathode is a powerful tool for removal of heavy metals from waste water and can play an important role in waste water treatment.
