Abstract:
A PROCESS FOR TREATING INDUSTRIAL WASTES CONTAINING SULFURIC ACID AND METAL CONSTITUENTS COMPRISING SUBJECTING THE WASTES TO A CELL EQUIPPED WITH A PLURALITY OF ALTERNATELY POSITIONED POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE LEAD-ANTIMONY ALLOY ELECTRODES AND CHARGING THE ELECTRODES. THE LIQUID PORTION OF THE WASTE IS DISSIPATED AND A RESIDUE INCLUDING THE METALLIC CONSTITUENTS FORMS. A SECONDARY PROCESS IS ALSO DISCLOSED COMPRISING THE STEPS OF PLACING ADDITIONAL PICKLE LIQUOR IN A SECONDARY PROCESSING TANK, CONTACTING THE PICKLE LIQUOR IN THE SECONDARY PROCESSING TANK WITH THE EXTERIOR WALL OF THE CELL WALL TO THE PICKLE LIQUOR IN THE SECOND THROUGH THE CELL WALL TO THE PICKLE LIQUOR IN THE SECONDARY TANK WHEREIN THE LIQUID PORTION OF THE LIQUOR IN THE SECCONDARY PROCESSING TANK IS DISSIPATED AND A RESIDUE INCLUDING THE METALLIC CONSTITUENTS FORMS WITHIN THE SECONDARY TANK. THE METALLIC CONSTITUENTS MAY BE RECLAIMED BY A DRYING STEP OR BY AN AGNITION STEP.
Abstract:
An electrolytic assembly and a laundry treatment apparatus. An electrolytic assembly includes an electrolytic device, a heating member, and a mounting device. The electrolytic device includes an electrode. The electrolytic device and/or heating member is connected to the mounting device. The heating member and the electrode are located on the same side of the mounting device. The electrolytic assembly can produce a hydroxyl radical having a strong oxidization activity by electrolyzing water by means of the electrolytic device to perform disinfection and sterilization, and can further heat a liquid to a required temperature by means of the heating member. The integration of the heating member and the electrolytic device can facilitate the arrangement of the structures of the heating member and the electrolytic device more compact and facilitate overall assembly/disassembly.
Abstract:
Self-cleaning electrochemical cells, systems including self-cleaning electrochemical cells, and methods of operating self-cleaning electrochemical cells are disclosed. The self-cleaning electrochemical cell can include a plurality of concentric electrodes disposed in a housing, a fluid channel defined between the concentric electrodes, and an electrical connector positioned at a distal end of a concentric electrode and electrically connected to the electrode. The electrical connectors may be configured to provide a substantially even current distribution to the concentric electrode and minimize a zone of reduced velocity occurring downstream from the electrical connector. The electrical connector may be configured to cause a temperature of an electrolyte solution to increase by less than about 0.5° C. while transmitting at least 100 W of power.

Abstract:
A process of making an alkaline water and acidic water wherein the step of dissolving the alkaline salt in the initial stream is further defined as adding the alkaline salt of a lower alkyl carboxylic acid of sodium propionate to the initial stream. The step of electrolyzing the feed stream further includes a step of applying an electric potential between the cathode and the anode. The step of applying the electrical potential is further defined as applying the electrical potential of between 0.5V and 50 V between the cathode and the anode. The alkaline water composition produced by the process includes zero hydroxide ions and defines a total alkalinity between 40 ppm and 510 ppm. The alkaline water also has a TDS between 58 ppm and 1000 ppm, a pH between 10.0 and 12.0, a hardness rating between 3.5 and 10, and a Langelier Index between 0.37 and 2.20.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a portable water purification and sanitizing apparatus and method. Due to the limited size of the apparatus and its ability to utilize DC power, the apparatus can be transported and operated in remote areas across the globe. The apparatus and method generates electrolytic products of chlorine, hydroxide and ozone that are utilized to purify and sanitize water for human consumption.

Abstract:
There are provided processes for treating a residual. For example, such processes can comprise treating a mixture comprising the residual, a peracid or source thereof and an ammonium salt in a reactor, with an electric field, by means of at least one anode and at least one cathode that define therebetween an electrokinetic zone for treating the mixture. Such processes allow for inactivation of at least one type of pathogen in the residual so as to obtain a treated residual.
