Abstract

In this work, the removal of salicylic acid (SA) by electrocoagulation in a batch system was evaluated using aluminum (Al) and iron (Fe) electrodes. The experimental parameters evaluated were distance between electrodes, current density and electrocoagulation time. The results revealed that SA removal increased with increasing current density and electrocoagulation time. The minimum electrocoagulation time required to achieve 90% removal of the SA using the Fe electrode was 20 minutes in the CD condition 38.9 mA.cm-2 and DE 3 and 1 cm for the aluminum electrode occurs in the operating time of 40 minutes (CD 38.9 mA.cm-2 and DE 1 cm). The results showed that, in all the studied conditions, the EC is efficient.
