Özet:

Electrochemical decolorization of textile dyeing wastewater containing Reactive Violet 5 (RV5) were investigated at Pt/Ir electrodes in the presence of 75%NaCl+25%Na 2CO 3 (w/w) supporting electrolyte mixture in a batch electrochemical reactor. Experimental parameters were operated in the range of 300-1500 mg/L textile dye concentration, 4-20 g/L 75%NaCl+25%Na 2CO 3 electrolyte concentration, 5-15 mA/cm 2 current density, and 20-60°C reaction temperature in 15 min electrolysis time. Reactive Violet 5 decolorization increased with increasing current density and electrolyte concentration, and decreasing the textile dye concentration. Although a slight increase obtained in color removal efficiency, the temperature was not show much significant effect on decolorization. Depending on electrochemical reaction conditions, Reactive Violet 5 textile dye decolorization were obtained between 42.8-100%.
