I want to know whether or not the Zeta potential can give me an idea about the stirring degree in an electrochemical reactor, since i m dealing with a petroleum refinery wastewater.
Is the Zeta potential parameter a good indicator of the hydrodynamic regime in an electrochemical reactor?
In an electrochemical reactor, Zeta potential parameter could be useful in providing information about the charge neutralization mechanism of implied particles in the removal process.
The hydrodynamic regime is characterized via the Reynolds number (laminar regime vs. turbulent regime).
I think that Zeta potential will be influenced by the hydrodynamic regime (i.e., the mixing velocity, bubbles formation, dead zones, etc.).
Yes I think it is important to find zeta potential for any material to have an indication about pH zero charge for this material where determination of point of zero charge (PZC) is an important element in the characterization of adsorbents. This is mainly because the PZC defines the affinity of the adsorbent surface to the ionic species. Therefore, knowledge of PZC can help in the selection of adsorbent for removal of specific wastewater pollutants.
The relation between these two parameters is what i m seeking indeed. During my research to chose the main parameters to study in the electrochemical reactor, the fact that i don't have an interesting idea about the stirring degree rang makes me wonder about finding the appropriate domain basing on the bulk proprieties to get an idea about the mass transfer in this later, and i ended up with the Zeta potential.
As you mentioned, i think the Zeta potential will be influenced by the hydrodynamic regime and so the mass transfer, thus, it will be interesting if we can express such relation.
It's important to have such information since it's very interesting to get an idea about the pollutants adsorption phenomenon on the electrode-bulk interface.
Yet, i don't know how to choose the adsorbent material (the electrode in my case) basing on the PZC.
Can you please give more details about the adsorbent choice process basing on the Point of Zero Charge?
The pHpzc plays a key role in the adsorption process. When the pH > pHpzc, the surface of the materials becomes dominantly negatively charged and the adsorption of pollutant that have positive charge such as metal ions will be facilitated by electrostatic attraction
