  1. It depends upon what you want to do with your system.  And, that depends upon material selection and your water.  If you want to run a sacrificial system, it will put either iron or aluminum or something else into your water depending upon the material and their surface properties. Or you can run your system as an electroflotation system.  A couple of the principal variables are conductivity of the liquid (there are minimums for practical treatment), the area of the electrodes, the  current, and the spacing.  If you want more information, drop me a line.  I also have a new book coming out which provides the formula in the DAF chapter.  The book is the 2nd Edition of Practical Wastewater Treatment and will be available on Amazon in about 2 weeks.

    1. This is true. It is based on the treatment objectives of the system itself. This system can also be operated as an electro-oxidation system accordingly based on the treatment objectives of the application. Typically, there is minimums of course for practicality of conductivity, however, these systems have been operated down 300-400 ms/cm. Yes, post filtration/clarification is important and can be accomplished via a DAF, filtration or centrifugal filtration.
