WATER TREATMENT TECHNIQUE, EQUIPMENT SUGGESTED Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: electrochemical separation of impurities from water. SUBSTANCE: water is passed through a nozzle placed in electric field. The nozzle is made of soluble polarized metal members coated with film resulting from electrolysis. Treatment is performed at electric potential gradient equal to according to formula where d is an average size of members composing the nozzle, U is the voltage drop equal to 4-30 V. The equipment used has a housing with electrodes inside distanced from each other at l determined under formula , where V is voltage between the neighboring electrodes, d is an average size of members composing the nozzle, U the voltage drop at the members of the nozzle equal to 4-30 V. EFFECT: higher efficiency and reliability. 2 cl, 7 dwg
