PLANT FOR ELECTROCHEMICAL DECONTAMINATION OF METAL SURFACES Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC G21F9/28 

FIELD: ecology.

SUBSTANCE: plant comprises a cathode device made from a corrosion-resistant current-conductive material, for instance, stainless steel, in the form of a rectangular tight hollow vessel, the base of which is a rectangular flange of stainless steel, at the outer side of which there is a rubber gasket tightly fixed, in the vessel there is at least one nozzle to supply electrolyte from a reservoir for electrolyte and a nozzle to vacuumise the cavity of the rectangular tight hollow vessel of the cathode device, to remove sludge and electrolyte; current conductors with negative and positive poles of a current source; a reservoir for electrolyte; a pump, which is vacuum; a collector for electrolyte, serving to accumulate and return electrolyte into the reservoir for electrolyte, which represents a tight reservoir from stainless steel, equipped with a ball valve in the lower part to drain sludge and a level meter; a spray trap made in the form of a tight reservoir from stainless steel, in the upper part of which there is a vacuum meter, besides, all elements of the plant are mounted on a movable platform.

EFFECT: higher safety of decontamination process for maintenance personnel and environment and increased efficiency of decontamination.
