An electrolyte solution production device includes: an electrolysis unit that includes a stacked body having conductive film stacked and interposed between electrodes adjacent to each other and is configured to electrolyze a liquid; and housing having the electrolysis unit disposed in an inside of the housing. In addition, housing includes inflow port into which the liquid supplied to the electrolysis unit flows and outlet port from which an electrolyte solution produced in the electrolysis unit flows out. Conductive film has protrusion that protrudes toward the inner surface of housing and is provided to position conductive film with respect to housing. This can provide the electrolyte solution production device in which conductive film can be downsized and easily positioned with respect to housing.

An electrolysis system for water cleaning employs close anode and cathode plate spacing while providing cleaning of the plates. In one embodiment a moving anode allows access to the plates for cleaning.

Electrolytic liquid generation device includes stacked body in which conductive membrane is interposed between cathode and anode constituting electrodes, electrolytic part that electrolyzes a liquid, and housing in which electrolytic part is disposed. Housing includes flow path in which a liquid flowing direction intersects a stacking direction of stacked body. Electrolytic part includes slot open to flow path in which a part of interface between conductive membrane and the electrode is exposed. In housing, positioning member is disposed, and positioning member positions the electrode. This configuration provides electrolytic liquid generation device in which an electrode can be downsized and the electrode can be positioned in housing.

An electrocoagulation (EC) unit that performs an electrocoagulation process on wastewater or the like. In one embodiment, the EC unit includes a reaction tank formed from a non-conductive material, charge plates within the reaction tank that are spaced at a distance, intermediate plates disposed within the reaction tank between the charge plates, and plate conductors configured to electrically couple the charge plates to a power source. The bottom of the reaction tank tapers toward one or more ports which act as an ingress and egress point for the EC unit.

An electrodialysis fluid purification device includes a fluid output from an upper part of a first fluid reservoir. One or more ion permselective elements at a surface on or near the bottom of the first reservoir are arranged to provide one or more small area points or lines. A fluid connection to a second fluid reservoir is on an opposite side of the one or more ion permselective elements. Electrodes and a power supply create a voltage differential across the one or more ion permselective elements. Another fluid purification device includes a first reservoir with which an ion permselective element interfaces directly in a 2D to 3D relationship. A method employs small area ion permselective element interfaces at a surface on or near the bottom of the first reservoir such that ion transport creates a depleted zone that extends into the first fluid reservoir.

The invention relates to an apparatus for generating ozonated water. In particular, the apparatus is able to efficiently produce ozonated fluids in either continuous or batch operation modes, in a fashion that minimises electrolytic cells degradation, and/or that enhances the accuracy of ozone detection.

Apparatus and method for electrolysis of urea is capable of removing urea from waste-water generated by human urine or agricultural run-off while simultaneously producing cleaner water and hydrogen gas. The apparatus and method employ at least one water reduction electrode located close to at least one urea oxidation electrode. The water reduction electrode operates to generate a locally high pH such that the urea oxidation electrode operates in a locally high pH envelope where it can perform its reaction efficiently to break down the urea with little or no impact on the pH of the bulk solution.

The present disclosure relates to a biocide-generating device for outputting a biocide to a water system. The biocide-generating device includes a power circuit positioned within a housing that defines an electrolytic cell of the biocide-generating device.

An electrolytic cell for treating wastewater comprises an anode assembly, a cathode assembly and at least one bipolar electrode assembly placed between the anode and the cathode assembly such that the anodes of the anode assembly and the cathodes of the cathode assembly are interleaved with the bipolar plates of the bipolar electrode assembly. Each bipolar electrode assembly comprises a series of bipolar electrodes which operate as an anode or as a cathode, stacked in a vertical direction along a threaded bolt made of an electrically conductive material such that the bipolar electrodes operating as anodes are oriented in an opposite direction to the bipolar electrodes operating as cathodes and have their ends overlapping over a predetermined portion and being separated by conductive spacers. In preferred embodiments, only the anodes and the bipolar electrodes operating as anodes are coated with catalyst which saves costs and simplifies the manufacturing process.
