| Abstract | The present study evaluated the effect of the integration of electro-kinetic (EK) oxidation with sonication degradation of diesel in a hydrocarbon contaminated wastewater. The effect of operational parameters including initial pH (3 - 9), sonication (100 - 300 W), voltage (0.5 - 3 V/cm), and reaction time (60 - 150 min) were studied consecutively. The highest total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) destruction rate of 40% was achieved at pH 5. Also, increasing the sonication intensity up to 300 W improved the removal rate to 70%. The pseudo-first-order kinetic model was selected due to higher correlation coefficient. Considering the obtained integration of EK oxidation with sonication is a viable and efficient technology for treatment of diesel contaminated wastewaters. | en |
