Effects of water chemistry on arsenic removal from drinking water by electrocoagulation.

TL;DR: Electrocoagulation was highly effective at removing arsenic from drinking water in field trials conducted in a village in Eastern India and by using operation times long enough to produce sufficient iron oxide for removal of both phosphate and arsenate, the performance of the systems in fields was not inhibited by high phosphate concentrations.
