Electrolytic West Water Technology is an evolving and emerging field in the treatment of waste water. It is unconventional non biological & chemical free technology. It has the potential to treat effectively the waste water compared
to conventional treatment. It has potential to remove even non biological & toxics companiment from the waste streams. The system are compact modular in construction, packaged & noiseless on operation.
ELECTROLYSIS PROCESS
Electrolysis is a technique involving the passage of electricity through the effluent. The electrical current destabilizes dissolved colloidal particles and alters the charge on suspended particles permitting purification of water.
ELECTRO COAGULATION :
Reactions at the electrodes in Electro coagulation :
Reaction at the anode :
Me(s) — (3e-) = Me3+(aq)
Me3+(aq) + 3H20 = Me(OH)3 + 3H+
Reaction at the cathode :
2H20 + 2e- > H2 + 20H-
SPECIAL FEATURES OF ELECTROLYSIS
