Abstract:Due to its high poly(vinyl) alcohol (PVA) concentration, Embroidery industry wastewater is very resistant to biodegradation and classical methods such as coagulation, and adsorption. On the other hand, high chemical consumption is required in chemical oxidation processes. In this study, wastewater containing PVA was treated by an electrooxidation process with Boron Doped Diamond (BDD) electrodes for the rst time in literature. The effects of pH (2.0-8.0), temperature (25-45 C), current (3.0-6.0 A), electrolyte… Show more
