Innovating Science™ Green Chemistry: Electrochemical Remediation of Wastewater

Description

Innovating Science™ Green Chemistry: Electrochemical Remediation of Wastewater Kit explores electrocoagulation, a coagulation process carried out by an electrical charge, as an alternative way to improve the condition of wastewater.

• Water pollution is one of the largest threats facing the global population
• Water is a finite resource that once polluted, cannot be set aside in the hopes that the environment will make new, clean water
• One procedure often employed to treat wastewater is coagulation/flocculation which is effective, yet requires the addition of chemical components
• Less traditional approaches have begun receiving a great deal of attention such as a process called electrocoagulation
• Electrocoagulation is a coagulation process carried out by an electrical charge and does not require the use of additional chemicals
• Kit contains enough materials for 15 groups of students
• Teacher’s Manual and Student Study Guide copy masters are included
