4 Benefits of Electrocoagulation for Arsenic Removal from Water<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
In water and wastewater treatment, arsenic is classfied as a heavy metal. It is well known for its toxicity and it can cause numerous health problems in humans if consumed at high enough doses. Arsenic can affect the skin, liver, kidneys, bladder, and prostate as well as the nervous, respiratory, cardiovascular, immune, and endocrine systems. Due to the many health risks associated with arsenic, the US EPA has set the drinking water standard to 10 ppb as the maximum allowable concentration in drinking water. Therefore, this is the goal of all treatment systems for arsenic removal from water.<\/span><\/p>
Commonly found in groundwater, arsenic mainly exists in two oxidation states, arsenite (As(III)) and arsentate (As(V)). As(III) is the more toxic of the two, and is unfortunately the more difficult one to remove due to its higher solubility. In most, if not all removal methods, iron has proven to be the most effective medium. A few methods of removal include ion exchange, reverse osmosis (RO), oxidation, and coagulation, which is one of the more popular methods. Improving on the success of coagulation is its electrochemical counterpart, electrocoagulation (EC). <\/span><\/p>
