Abstract

This work investigates the feasibility of the coupled electrochemical (electrocoagulation/flotation) and physical processes (sedimentation, sand filtration, and activated carbon) for the treatment of automotive service wastewater (ASWW). The impacts of critical parameters, viz. pH solution, reaction time and current intensity on linear alkylbenzene sulfonate (LAS), and phenol removal efficiencies as well as energy consumption and operating cost are studied. Central composite design results reveal that at the optimum conditions, LAS and phenol removal efficiencies, energy consumption and operating cost are obtained 96.7%, 87.65%, 15.99 Wh, 0.001 US$, respectively. This process reveals a feasible technology for phenol and LAS removal from ASWW.
