ELECTROLYTIC WATER TREATMENT DEVICE Russian patent published in 1999 - IPC

FIELD: production of disinfecting solutions by anodic water treatment or water softening by its cathodic treatment. SUBSTANCE: vertical diaphragm flow electrolyzer incorporating working and auxiliary chambers, the latter being provided with circulating loop, has hollow inner electrode. Hollow space of the latter communicates with auxiliary chamber thereby forming circulating loop filled with auxiliary solution and placed inside hollow electrode. In addition, total area of outlet holes is greater than that of inlet ones; the former may be of tangential shape. All these measures provide for reducing number of service lines, joined and sealed parts. EFFECT: improved compactness and reliability of device, reduced leakage probability. 3 cl, 1 dwg
