Energy consumption decreased with increasing textile dye concentration and electrolyte concentration, and decreasing the current density. In the study, energy consumption values were evaluated for textile dye decolorization (t=15 min) and COD removal (t=120 min) as 2.7-23.3 kWh/kg dye decolorization and 50.9-317.9 kWh/kg COD removal, respectively. </span> </p>}, number={3}, publisher={Turkish Chemical Society}
