Résumé
Electrocoagulation (EC) is an efficient technology for removing oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions. However, the role of the electric field in EC for demulsification remains unclear and an obstacle for improving reactor design and operation. Herein, demulsification and oil removal performance by EC under different electric field conditions were investigated. Increasing the EC electric field intensity was beneficial for oil removal, and tandem EC had a higher electric field intensity than parallel EC under the same current density. When the current density was 0.67 mA cm
