Abstract:
A catalyst/cocatalyst composition of matter is useful in electrolytically treating organic waste material. Use of the catalyst/cocatalyst composition causes the reaction rate to increase, and causes the anode potential and the energy required for the reaction to decrease. An electrolyte, including the catalyst/cocatalyst composition, and a reaction medium composition further including organic waste material are also described.
Abstract:
A power supply circuit containing a transformer which is used in a spray-drenched environment, for example, near a bathing pool or food processing plant, is cooled by heat exchange with circulating liquid. An electrolysis apparatus producing in situ chlorine for a pool has a passage through which pool water is pumped. A metal sleeve surrounds the passage and contacts a transformer and rectifier, all of which are surrounded by cast, insulating resin.
Abstract:
This washing machine is provided with an electro chemical cell (4) having a brine tank (9) provided with a metering piston (16a, b 16b) actuated by an electro magnet (21) and connected by an electro valve (14) controlling a connection conduit (3) to a water supply conduit (1). The inlet opening of such connection conduit into the cell (4) is controlled by a float valve (11). The electro valve is a two-way valve (14, 14a) and controls simultaneously the outlet conduit (13) which opens into the washing tub of the washing machine. The power supply of the cell (4) is controlled by the program selector (8) of the machine.
Abstract:
A metal powder e.g. copper or zinc, is produced from a dilute aqueous solution of the metal by subjecting the dilute aqueous solution to electrolysis in a cell having a rotating cylinder cathode and in accordance with the equation:I = KCV.sup.xwhere I is the current density, K is a constant for a given cell, C is the concentration of metal ion in aqueous solution, V is the peripheral velocity of the rotating cylinder cathode and x = 0.7 to 1.0. A diaphragm cell is preferably used. Dilute aqueous solutions treated include mining liquors and viscose rayon plant effluent.This invention relates to metals and is particularly concerned with the recovery or extraction of metals in powder form by electrolytic means.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus for generating electrolyzed water, which generates hydrogen water comprising hydrogen molecules in a high concentration. Two sheets of porous cathode plates each provided on the surface thereof with an ion-exchange membrane are provided across an anode plate so as for the ion-exchange membranes to face the anode plate and so as to form a space allowing water to flow therethrough, between the anode plate and each of the ion-exchange membranes, and thus four electrolysis chambers are formed. Thus, here is provided an apparatus for generating electrolyzed water in which there are formed a first water path and a second water path to feed water respectively to the first electrolysis chamber and the second electrolysis chamber formed between the anode plate and the cathode plates, and a third water path to feed water to either of the third electrolysis chamber and the fourth electrolysis chamber formed on the sides of the cathode plates on the other side of the anode plate and to feed the treated water passing through the electrolysis chamber to the other electrolysis chamber.

Abstract:
There is provided a system and method for regulating conductivity of cooling water in a recirculation route of a cooling water recirculation system through which the cooling water is circulated for removing scale from the cooling water. The system comprises an electrolytic device connectable to the cooling water recirculation system for performing electrolysis on the cooling water and a controller. The controller is for controlling the electrolysis of the cooling water in an electrolytic chamber of the electrolytic device for depositing ions in the cooling water as scale on the surface of one of a pair of electrodes of the electrolytic device and for dislodging the scale deposited thereon, monitoring a value of voltage and a value of current between the pair of electrodes, calculating a conductivity of the cooling water based on the monitored values of voltage and current, and regulating an amount of discharge of the cooling water from the electrolytic chamber based on the calculated conductivity of the cooling water, whereby the scale is removed with the cooling water that is being discharged and the cooling water that is being electrolyzed is directed back to the recirculation route of the cooling water recirculation system for circulation.
Abstract:
A method for increasing the quantity of dissolved oxygen in water includes addition of an oxidant to the water to increase the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) of the water to between about 400 and 850 mV, followed by electrolysis to generate oxygen gas. The voltage applied to the electrolytic cells during electrolysis is less than 300 mV. The dissolved oxygen content of the water exiting the electrolytic cell is about 90% of saturation to super saturation.
