Removal of boron from mining wastewaters by electrocoagulation method: Modelling experimental data using artificial neural networks

Excess boron in drinking and irrigation water is a serious environmental and health problem because it can be toxic to many crops and lead to various diseases in humans and animals upon long-term consumption. In this work, the removal of boron from aqueous solutions was achieved by electrocoagulation using aluminium as the anode and cathode. The operating parameters influencing the efficiency of boron removal, namely, initial pH (pH0), current...
