Abstract

The increasing contamination of water bodies with heavy metals poses significant environmental and health risks, necessitating the development of effective remediation technologies. In response, this study proposes an advanced solar-powered electrochemical remediation system for the removal of heavy metal waste from wastewater. The system integrates solar energy harnessing with electrochemical processes to achieve efficient and sustainable removal of heavy metal ions. Key performance indicators, including removal efficiency, energy efficiency, cost-effectiveness, downtime reduction, treatment capacity, and environmental impact, are considered to assess the efficacy and sustainability of the proposed framework. Through a comprehensive literature review and comparative analysis of existing countermeasures, this project aims to develop a scalable, environmentally friendly, and economically viable solution to address the pressing problem of heavy metal ion pollution in wastewater.
