Electrocoagulation and advanced electrocoagulation processes: A general review about the fundamentals, emerging applications and its association with other technologies
Sergi Garcia-Segura,Maria Maesia S.G. Eiband,Jailson Vieira de Melo,Carlos A. Martínez-Huitle,Carlos A. Martínez-Huitle +4 more
TL;DR: The electrocoagulation (EC) process is an electrochemical means of introducing coagulants and removing suspended solids, colloidal material, and metals, as well as other dissolved solids from water and wastewaters as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Arsenic removal by electrocoagulation process: Recent trends and removal mechanism
TL;DR: Electrocoagulation using various sacrificial metal anodes such as aluminium, iron, magnesium, etc is found to be very effective for arsenic decontamination and the mechanism behind the arsenite and arsenate removal by EC process is studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simultaneous arsenic and fluoride removal from synthetic and real groundwater by electrocoagulation process: Parametric and cost evaluation.
TL;DR: The present electrocoagulation process is able to reduce the arsenic and fluoride concentration of synthetic as well as real groundwater to below 10 μg/l and 1.5 mg/l, respectively, which are maximum contaminant level of these elements in drinking water according to WHO guidelines.

Two-step mineralization of Tartrazine solutions: Study of parameters and by-products during the coupling of electrocoagulation with electrochemical advanced oxidation processes
TL;DR: In this paper, a sequential electrochemical treatment consisting in an electrocoagulation (EC) pre-treatment and the subsequent advanced oxidation by photoelectro-Fenton (PEF) process with in-situ H 2 O 2 electrogeneration and UVA light irradiation has been envisaged for the removal of organic pollutants from water, showing a high performance for the decolorization and mineralization of Tartrazine (Acid Yellow 23) solutions.

Increased mortality from lung cancer and bronchiectasis in young adults after exposure to arsenic in utero and in early childhood
Allan H. Smith,Guillermo Marshall,Yan Yuan,Catterina Ferreccio,Jane Liaw,Ondine S. von Ehrenstein,Craig Steinmaus,Michael N. Bates,Steve Selvin +8 more
TL;DR: Exposure to arsenic in drinking water during early childhood or in utero has pronounced pulmonary effects, greatly increasing subsequent mortality in young adults from both malignant and nonmalignant lung disease.

Electrochemical removal of fluoride ions from industrial wastewater
TL;DR: In this article, the fluoride ions were removed electrochemically from a solution using a combined electrocoagulation and electroflotation process, and the composition of the sludge produced from the operation was analyzed using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometers (ToF-SIMS).
