Abstract
). Based on this influencing factor Al-Al and Fe-Fe can remove COD up to 87.5 % and 90 % respectively. Similarly, 87.5 % and 88.89 % of COD were removed, when aluminum and iron were combined as Al-Fe and Fe-Al respectively. In addition, the effects of different operating parameters were discussed on the removal percentage of COD. This indicated that the combination of electrode influence the removal efficiency of COD using the electrocoagulation process under different operating parameters.
