Advantages for Your Wastewater Treatment
- Enhanced COD Removal: The Ru-Ir coating generates strong oxidants (e.g., hydroxyl radicals, active chlorine) that break down refractory organics, achieving COD removal rates of 85–95% in typical electroplating wastewater.
- Heavy Metal Recovery: Combined with cathodic reduction, the anode maintains stable potential, enabling efficient recovery of copper, nickel, zinc, etc. from rinse waters.
- Energy Efficiency: Low overpotential for oxygen evolution (approx. 1.45 V vs. SHE at 100 A/m²) reduces power consumption by up to 20% compared to conventional DSA anodes.
- Long Service Life: Accelerated life tests indicate a stable performance for over 5000 hours at 100 A/m² in 1M H₂SO₄, ensuring minimal replacement costs.
- Easy Installation: Cylindrical shape fits standard electrode holders; can be integrated into existing electrochemical reactors without major modifications.
- Scalable Design: Multiple cylinders can be arranged in parallel to increase treatment capacity as needed.
Our anode is extensively used in electroplating plants, metal finishing industries, printed circuit board manufacturing, and semiconductor wastewater treatment. It performs exceptionally well in both batch and continuous flow systems, delivering consistent results that meet discharge standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the typical lifespan of this anode?
A: Under normal operating conditions (100 A/m², pH 2–12, temperature 20–60°C), the anode can last 5–8 years. The actual lifespan depends on the specific wastewater composition, current density, and maintenance practices. -
Q: Can the anode be used for other types of wastewater besides electroplating?
A: Yes. The Ru-Ir coating is effective for a wide range of industrial effluents, including textile dyeing, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, and landfill leachate treatment. However, it is particularly optimized for electroplating wastewater due to its chlorine evolution capability. -
Q: What is the standard coating thickness and how is it applied?
A: The standard coating thickness is ≥ 2 μm, applied via thermal decomposition (spin-coating followed by calcination at 400–500°C). The loading is typically ≥ 10 g/m². Custom thicknesses are available upon request. -
Q: Do you provide custom sizes or shapes?
A: Absolutely. We can manufacture anodes with different diameters (e.g., 30mm, 80mm, 100mm), lengths, and mesh patterns. Please provide your reactor dimensions and process requirements for a tailored solution. -
Q: How should I store and handle the anode?
A: Store in a dry, clean environment away from corrosive chemicals. Avoid mechanical impact or scratching the coating. Use proper electrical connections (e.g., titanium or copper busbars) to prevent arcing. -
Q: What is the recommended operating voltage range?
A: For optimal performance, we recommend 6V–20V. Operating below 6V may not achieve sufficient current density, while exceeding 20V could accelerate coating wear. Always use a constant current or constant voltage power supply with appropriate limits. -
Q: Do you offer a warranty for this product?
A: Yes, we provide a standard warranty of 12 months against manufacturing defects. Extended warranty options are available upon negotiation. Our after-sales team is ready to assist with any issues. -
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: For standard sizes, MOQ is 5 pieces. For custom orders, MOQ may vary depending on the complexity. We welcome both small trial orders and large volume commitments.
