operating time (0–60 min) on the treatment of wastewater were investigated to obtain maximum treatment effi-
ciency. The maximum removal efficiencies of color and chemical oxygen demand (COD) were obtained as 99.2 and
60.5%, respectively, at the electrode combination of Al/Al, current density of 100 A/m2, pH 7.0, and reaction time of
60 min. In order to improve treatment quality, a cross-flow membrane process was integrated to the sono-electro-
coagulation process. Nanofiltration (NF) and reverse osmosis (RO) membranes were tested. The combined sono-
assisted electrocoagulation and membrane system supplied 100% color and 90.8% COD removal efficiency when
supported with RO membrane. The results indicated that the proposed integrated process supplied higher pollutant
removal compared to the alone electrocoagulation and sonication process. Operating cost of the combined process
was calculated as 1.83 $/m3. Moreover, the genotoxic effect of brewery wastewater was also assessed by comet assay
before and after treatment. This process can be used to treat a different kind of wastewater as an efficient technique.

3.2.2. Effect of pH
It is well known that the pH has a remarkable influence on the
performance of EC and SEC process. The effect of pH on the removal
efficiencies of color and COD was investigated with the pH values in the
range of 5.0–9.0 using aluminum electrodes. Constant current density
and electrode distance were 75 A/m2 and 2 cm, respectively. The re-
sults of color and COD removal efficiencies as a function of pH is de-
monstrated in Fig. 4. It can be noticed that pH of the wastewater af-
fected removal efficiencies. The color and COD removal efficiencies
increased from 83.1 to 98.2% (Fig. 4a) and from 29.1 to 53.7%
(Fig. 4b), respectively, when pH increased from 5.0 to 7.0. The highest
color and COD removal efficiencies were obtained in neutral media (pH
7.0) with Al electrodes. However, the color and COD removal effi-
ciencies decreased from 98.2 to 95.4% and from 53.7 to 45.3%, re-
spectively, when pH increased from 7.0 to 9.0. It could be seen that
coagulation decreased at lower and higher pH values. Aluminum ions
