The paper suggests an approach to modeling the electrocoagulation process that is based on the generalization of the equations of\nincompressible fluid flow in nonisothermal conditions. In the model was taking into account the ratio between the values of the\nparameters which characterize the domination of convective and mass-exchange components of the process over diffusion. An\nasymptotic approximation of solutions of corresponding boundary value problems is constructed. Based on the received solutions,\nwe conducted a computer simulation of the process of distribution of iron concentration inside the reactor that allows predicting\nvarious hydrodynamic phenomena such as internal recirculation and dead zones that affect the formation of a coagulant. The\ninfluence of current strength on the concentration of the target component at the exit from the reactor was investigated using the\ndeveloped mathematical model. In addition, our findings also show the effect of the rate of heat formation from the electrodes on\nthe efficiency of obtaining of coagulant.
