| Résumé: | © 2020 Water Environment Federation. A FLUENT software able to predict and assess the electrooxidation of ammonia from the simulation of ammonia concentration and flow field distribution was developed in this study. The flow field-based models of ammonia removal were simulated and modified through the experimental results. The parameter of reaction constant k is corrected to 0.00195, and the modified model fitted well with experimental values, with the error less than 4%. The electrode depth of 4 cm was assessed to be optimal for ammonia removal based on the comparison of the simulation results on ammonia concentration and flow field distribution. The prediction result applied in the industrial wastewater treatment indicated that complete could be achieved at 0.27 Ah/L, and about 50% of total nitrogen was removed at 0.8 Ah/L. About 7% of chloride ions were converted into inorganic by-products, indicating low biological toxicity and risk on environment. The energy consumption increased with the promotion of removal efficiency of total nitrogen, requiring 5.4 kWh/m3 to remove 50% total nitrogen at 0.8 Ah/L. The results show the practicability and feasibility of this FLUENT software tool on the simulation and prediction of electrooxidation process, which can provide the simulation parameter settings for the subsequent application. PRACTITIONER POINTS: A FLUENT software based on the simulation of ammonia concentration and flow field distribution was able to predict and assess ammonia electrooxidation. A modified model is provided with a rate constant k of 0.00195 and the distinction of 4% with experimental results. The optimal electrode depth was predicted to be 4 cm via the obtained model. Complete ammonia and about 50% of total nitrogen could be at 0.27 Ah/L and 0.8 Ah/L, receptively. About 7% of chloride ions were converted into inorganic by-products in industrial wastewater with high chloride |
