A mathematical model of a flow-by packed bed electrochemical reactor consisting of copper particles and operating under constant current conditions is presented. The mathematical model describes the kinetic behavior of the electrochemical reactor and its porosity field modification due to electrodeposition occurring in the reactor when it is used to remove copper ions from industrial effluents. A computational method based on orthogonal collocation combined with a Newton-Raphson multivariable algorithm and a Dassl code is implemented to calculate overpotential distribution, reaction rate, and bed porosity time distribution. The impact of constant current operation on porosity field modification is addressed, along with the effects of important design parameters such as applied current and bed width. The results of the developed model show good agreement with experimental data.
