    Abstract: This study aimed to model and optimize the design of a ceramic water filter using an experimental design approach. The ceramic filter was fabricated from raw clay sourced from the Sè region, while rice husk and sawdust, served as the pore-forming material. The optimization process began with a screening of 11 factors using a screening design, follo... Show More

    Abstract: The effectiveness of electrochemical techniques in preventing and resolving wastewater contamination issues has been demonstrated. However, this method requires knowledge of the organic pollutant's (Oxacillin: OXA) electrochemical behavior before electrolysis. The aim of this study is to enhance comprehension of the electrochemical process of oxaci... Show More
