A plain design of electrolysis apparatus to reduce ammonia content in effluent from tofu industry.

Abstract

One of the environmental problems the tofu industries encounter the presence of an unpleasant odor due to the production of ammonia (NH3) gas from wastewater they produce. Several previous studies have proven that electrolysis methods can breakdown this harmful gas into more environmentally friendly compounds. As the results of literature reviews and some comprehensive research, this paper comes up with a plain design apparatus useful to reduce ammonia content in wastewater using the electrolysis method.
