Departamento de Ingeniería de Procesos; Procesos Ambientales (GIPAB)In this work, the sequential Electrocoagulation + Electro-oxidation + Activated carbon adsorption (EC + EO + AC) process was studied as an alternative for the treatment of an industrial textile wastewater (TWW) issuing from a manufacturing company located in Medellín (Colombia). The EC's and EO's operational conditions were optimized using a Box-Behnken experimental design, the Response Surface Methodology and a constrained nonlinear optimization algorithm in terms of organic matter degradation efficiency. The best performance for EC (i. e., dye removal = 94%, COD and TOC degradation of 45 and 40%, respectively) was obtained using Fe anode and Boron Doped Diamond (BDD) cathode, with current density, jEC, equals to 5 mA/cm2, pH = 9.3, 60 RPM and 10 min of electrolysis. After EC treatment, the effluent biodegradability (evaluated as the BOD5/COD ratio) increases from 0.14 to 0.23. Regrettably, EC was not effective for the removal of acute toxicity to Artemia salina since the treated effluent remained very toxic (100%). The treatment of EC's effluent by EO enhanced organic pollutant removal. For EC + EO sequential process, EO optimal operational conditions (jEO = 10 mA/cm2, pH = 3, 240 RPM, BDD as anode and Fe as cathode) allowed reduction of 100% of color, 88% of COD and 79% of TOC after 30 min of electrolysis. Moreover, the BOD5/COD ratio increased from 0.23 to 0.58; however, the treated effluent remained very toxic to the Artemia salina. Consequently, an activated carbon adsorption step was included to complete the treatment process. Thus, by coupling the EC + EO + AC process, effluent's acute toxicity decreased completely. From molecular weight distribution analysis, it was concluded that EC + EO was efficient in eliminating low molecular weight (< 5 kDa) compounds. Finally, the operation cost, which includes chemical reagents, electrodes, energy consumption, and sludge disposal, for the EC + EO + AC sequential process was estimated in 3.83 USD /m3. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.Ítem Efficient treatment for textile wastewater through sequential electrocoagulation, electrochemical oxidation and adsorption processes: Optimization and toxicity assessment(Elsevier BV, 2020-01-01) GilPavas E.; Dobrosz-Gómez I.; Gómez-García M.-Á.; Universidad EAFIT.

Departamento de Ingeniería de Procesos; Procesos Ambientales (GIPAB)In this study, the potential application of sequential Electrocoagulation + Fenton (F) or Photo-Fenton (PF) + Active carbon adsorption (EC + F/PF + AC) processes were analyzed as alternatives for the treatment of an industrial textile wastewater resulting from an industrial facility located in Medellín (Colombia). In order to maximize the organic matter degradation, each step of the treatment was optimized using the Response Surface Methodology. At first, the optimal performance of EC was achieved with Fe electrodes operating at pH = 7, jEC = 10 mA/cm2 and 60 rpm, during 10 min of electrolysis. At these conditions, EC let to remove 94% of the dye's color, 56% of the COD and 54% of the TOC. Next, sequentially applied Fenton or photo-Fenton process (i.e., EC + F/PF), operating at the optimized conditions (pH = 4.3, [Fe2+] = 1.1 mM, [H2O2] = 9.7 mM, stirring velocity = 100 rpm and reaction time = 60 min.), improved the quality of the treated effluent. The EC + F let to achieve total color reduction, as well as COD and TOC removals of 72 and 75%, respectively. The EC + PF reached 100% of color, 76% of COD and 78% of TOC reductions. The EC + F/PF processes were more efficient than EC in elimination of low molecular weight (<5 kDa) compounds from wastewater. Moreover, the BOD5/COD ratio increased from 0.21 to 0.42 and from 0.21 to 0.46 using EC + F and EC + PF processes, respectively. However, EC + F/PF were not fully effective for the removal of acute toxicity to Artemia salina: 20% and 60% of reduction in toxicity using EC + F and EC + PF, respectively, comparing to very toxic (100%) raw textile wastewater. Thus, activated carbon adsorption was applied as an additional step to complete the treatment. After AC adsorption, the acute toxicity decreased to 10% and 0% using EC + F and EC + PF, respectively. The total operational costs, including chemical reagents, electrodes, energy consumption and sludge disposal, were of 1.65 USD/m3 and 2.3 USD/m3 for EC + F and EC + PF, respectively. © 2018 Elsevier B.V.Ítem Optimization and toxicity assessment of a combined electrocoagulation, H2O2/Fe2+/UV and activated carbon adsorption for textile wastewater treatment(Elsevier, 2019-02-15) GilPavas, E; Dobrosz-Gomez, I; Gomez-Garcia, MA; Universidad EAFIT.

A.; GilPavas, E.; Dobrosz-Gomez, I.; Gomez-Garcia, M. A.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería de Procesos; Procesos Ambientales (GIPAB)The capacity of the electro-coagulation (EC) process for the treatment of the wastewater containing Cr3+, resulting from a leather tannery industry placed in Medellin (Colombia), was evaluated. In order to assess the effect of some parameters, such as: the electrode type (Al and/or Fe), the distance between electrodes, the current density, the stirring velocity, and the initial Cr3+ concentration on its efficiency of removal (%RCr+3), a multifactorial experimental design was used. The %RCr3+ was defined as the response variable for the statistical analysis. In order to optimise the operational values for the chosen parameters, the response surface method (RSM) was applied. Additionally, the Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD5), the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), and the Total Organic Carbon (TOC) were monitored during the EC process. The electrodes made of aluminium appeared to be the most effective in the chromium removal from the wastewater under study. At pH equal to 4.52 and at 28 degrees C, the optimal conditions of Cr3+ removal using the EC process were found, as follows: the initial Cr3+ concentration=3,596 mg/L, the electrode gap=0.5 cm, the stirring velocity=382.3 rpm, and the current density=57.87 mA/cm2. At those conditions, it was possible to reach 99.76% of Cr3+ removal, and 64% and 61% of mineralisation (TOC) and COD removal, respectively. A kinetic analysis was performed in order to verify the response capacity of the EC process at optimised parameter values.Ítem Treatment of automotive industry oily wastewater by electrocoagulation: statistical optimization of the operational parameters.(IWA PUBLISHING, 2009-11-01) GilPavas, Edison; Molina-Tirado, Kevin; Angel Gomez-Garcia, Miguel; GilPavas, Edison; Molina-Tirado, Kevin; Angel Gomez-Garcia, Miguel; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ingeniería de Procesos; Procesos Ambientales (GIPAB)An electrocoagulation process was used for the treatment of oily wastewater generated from an automotive industry in Medellin (Colombia). An electrochemical cell consisting of four parallel electrodes (Fe and Al) in bipolar configuration was implemented. A multifactorial experimental design was used for evaluating the influence of several parameters including: type and arrangement of electrodes, pH, and current density. Oil and grease removal was defined as the response variable for the statistical analysis. Additionally, the BOD(5), COD, and TOC were monitored during the treatment process. According to the results, at the optimum parameter values (current density = 4.3 mA/cm(2), distance between electrodes = 1.5 cm, Fe as anode, and pH = 12) it was possible to reach a c.a. 95% oils removal, COD and mineralization of 87.4% and 70.6%, respectively. A final biodegradability (BOD(5)/COD) of 0.54 was reached.
