Analysis of efficiency and reaction rate degradation of cyanide under the influence of current density on steel electrodes

Electrolytic treatment of wastewater is a technique in which wastewater is treated by applying electric current through electrodes in the electrochemical reactor. This is actually a combination of many processes such as anodic oxidation, electro-coagulation and electro-flotation. The paper presents the influence of current density (5, 10, 20 mA/cm2) on the efficiency and reaction rate degradation of cyanide from cyanide wastewater in an electrochemical reactor with electrodes made of steel and stainless steel for 60 minutes of reaction time. This paper presents of a significant effect of current density and an.
