Sequential Congo Red Elimination by UASB Reactor Coupled to Electrochemical Systems
Response surface methodology was investigated to determine the operational parameters on the degradation of Congo red dye (CR) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) in two electrochemical systems evaluated individually on effluent pretreated by an up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor. The UASB...

Response surface methodology was investigated to determine the operational parameters on the degradation of Congo red dye (CR) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) in two electrochemical systems evaluated individually on effluent pretreated by an up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor. The UASB reactor was fed with 100 mg L<sup>−1</sup> of CR and was operated for 12 weeks at different hydraulic residence times (HRTs) of 12 h, 10 h, and 8 h. Once stabilized at an HRT of 8 h, the effluent was collected, homogenized, and independently treated by electrooxidation (EO) and electrocoagulation (EC) cells. On both electrochemical systems, two electrode pairs were used; solid for EC (Fe and stainless-steel) and mesh electrodes for EO (Ti/PbO<sub>2</sub> and Ti), and the effect of intensity (A), recirculation flow rate (mL min<sup>−1</sup>), and experimental time (min) was optimized on response variables. The maximum efficiencies of sequential systems for COD degradation and CR decolorization were 92.78% and 98.43% by EC and ≥99.84% and ≥99.71% by EO, respectively.
