Özet: Dye removal from effluent is one of the major environmental problems in textile industry concerning water pollution. Nowadays the optimization of the decolorization processes is a considerable topic in that minimizing the negative impact on the environment,. The present work deals with the decolorization of reactive dye solutions containing Jakofix Yellow dye in a batch-stirred electrocoagulation (EC) cell using three different types of electrode pair. Different operating conditions, such as current density, operating time, electrode type and initial pH value were tested with the dye solutions in order to optimise the treatment. Optimum operation conditions achieved in the tests were: current density of 196 A m-2, initial pH of 5.5 which its natural value and Fe electrodes for the batch-stirred setting. Results clearly show that EC process is quite simple and effective treatment method for decolorization of wastewaters containing textile dye jakofix yellow and clay minerals can be used in order to increase the efficiency of this technique.
