INTRODUCTION
In treating wastewater, one of the most important part is the biological treatment. In today’s
rising demand for effective wastewater treatment methods, electro-fenton is one of the
forerunners when it comes to removing organic chemicals present in the water. The efficiency of
used, the ratio of ferrous to hydrogen peroxide, reaction time, nature of the organic compound
present, temperature of water, etc. Due to the fact that the efficiency of the process is depended
on wide set of parameters, it is difficult to economical optimize the use of the process. Albeit
limited range of conditions. The availability of experimental data from the previous studies has
been highly constricted that even existing mathematical models can only make short range of
reliable and accurate prediction. Moreover, existing studies that attempted to use mathematical
models in evaluating the performance utilized data that was established under the same paper
through experiment- which implies that there is no established compiled data of the parameters.
A tabulated summary of parameters could create easier access in using mathematical models for
performance evaluation. But, even existing computational models that was utilized in published
studies can only incorporate limited parameters- which adds to the factors creating a less
Current trend in predicting the performance of electro-fenton process is collecting data through
parameters in previous studies using existing models. This kind of study allows for expansion of
available data that can be used in pending studies. It is also the trending process in establishing
new models, utilizing original data and incorporating established ones. New models being
published ranges from creating more efficient and accurate models to models that can
The objective of the study is to gather established data relating to parameters that directly affects
the performance of electro-fenton process in treating hazardous contaminants in water. Using the
data collected, run the data in artificial neural network and create weights and biases in the
program through training. Using the obtained values, examine the training result report –
depending on the quality of the results make an optional fine-tuning. And finally, use the set-up
to make an accurate and reliable prediction of the performance based on input parameters- using
The goal of the study is to make accurately reliable prediction of electro-fenton performance.
Using the program set-up created, accurate forecast of the process efficiency can be determined
using different sets of parameters under wide range of system conditions. Therefore, optimizing
the utilization of the technique in the industry. This will be a future sustainable approach in
The study will be concerned on evaluating the performance of the treatment process using
advance mathematical computation in the form of ANN. Albeit the prediction of the performance
will be highly dependent on the stated parameters, the study will not cover the thorough analysis
as to how the parameters affect the overall and final prediction. Also, the study will only be
utilizing data established in existing published papers- creating compiled data used in different
studies.
