Using electrochemical action (ECA) to treat water was first proposed in UK in 1889. At present, many methods of
ECA are known (electro flotation, electro coagulation, electro osmosis, electrophoresis, etc.).
In the production of rocket and space technology, galvanic technologies are used, as a result of which waste water
is contaminated with metal ions. Known methods of wastewater treatment do not allow to ensure the maximum permissible concentration of metal ions in treated water, or are expensive or difficult to operate in industry. Iron ions are
among the most polluting components of wastewater of most industries. So increased control and the development of
effective methods of wastewater treatment are necessary. Iron affects the intensity of phytoplankton development and
the qualitative composition of microflora in reservoirs. The toxicity of iron compounds in water depends on the hydrogen index of water. The alkaline environment dramatically increases the risk of fish poisoning, as in such conditions,
iron hydroxides are formed, which are deposited on the gills, clog and corrode them. In addition, iron compounds bind
oxygen dissolved in water, which leads to the mass death of fish and other hydrobionts.
The article presents the method of conducting experiments, the methods of sorption, electrochemical and combined
water treatment, including electrochemical action and adsorption. The results of studies of these methods of water purification from iron ions are presented. The dependence of the degree of purification on the electric field strength, interelectrode distance and water treatment time is revealed. With an electric field strength of 5.16 V/mm, a temperature of
20–22 °C using quartz sand as an adsorbent and a processing time of 1 minute, the concentration of iron ions decreased
from 2.5 to 0.25 mg/l (at MPC = 0.3 mg/l). The proposed combined cleaning method requires inexpensive and affordable materials and is easy to operate.
Keywords: electrochemical method, iron, degree of purification, alternating current, direct current, sorbent.
