A Novel Experimental Study and Analysis of Electrocoagulation Process for Textile Wastewater Treatment using Various Sensors with Integration of IoT Monitoring System

One of the basic requirements of living beings is water. Due to globalization, industries consume large amount of water and creates shortage of pure water. In addition, they pollute the existing fresh water resources. Therefore, it is essential to design an effective wastewater purification system. Electrochemical method namely, electrocoagulation paves the way for an effective wastewater purification system. This research focuses on the study and analysis of the textile wastewater purification, using electrocoagulation process. This novel experimental study and analysis was carried out using iron, aluminium and mild steel electrodes for batch, modified batch and continuous process respectively. In these electrocoagulation processes, three major parameters such as colour, turbidity and pH were sensed and monitored using IoT. Colour and Turbidity Removal efficiency were also calculated, which gives satisfying results.
