Abstract

Groundwater is the purest form of water available in nature, but due to excessive pumping of groundwater, the water table is lowered every year. As a result, the concentrations of ions like lead, nickel etc.are increasing. Such action also triggers the salinity oozing from the rocks. The geogenic contamination due to ions/minerals from the rocks are surfacing and creating major challenges for water treatment companies. Lead and nickelconcentrations in groundwater arethe major problems worldwide, causing health issues to the population that uses this water for their consumption.In this work, a laboratory scale electro-chemical reactor is being designed using glass, aluminum sheets, iron sheets using which removal capacity of lead and nickelwere tested under different conditions, namely operational conditions, electrode orientation and water chemistry.
