SUMMARY In order to generate the necessary tools to carry out the testing removal of chromium(VI) in wastewater from the galvanic industry, the data gathering is performed from a first prototype of equipment for this purpose. Once the data is obtained, the necessary changes are specified and it allows the improvement of the equipment and increases the potential for using it in the determination of working parameters on electrocoagulation. The analyzed parameters were voltage source, current controller, temperature thermometer, and pH because they are the parameters to be standardized. Throughout the text can observe the changes made on the initial prototype whose main concept is handling electrocoagulation, to decrease the amount of metals in wastewater. An interesting outcome of analyzing among others, energy is therefore based on this consumption was calculated final value of energy versus the environmental cost, which certainly proves to be an important input for use in metal removal heavy and opens a possibility to continue with further studies of this type for the design of new reactors more efficient and helpful in the industry in general, which will help greatly in the reduction of environmental pollution.

Palabras clave : Electrocoagulation; flocculation; residual water; Chromium (VI).
