摘要： There is disclosed an electrode apparatus, which comprises an electrode (1) composed of a conductor through which perforations (2) are formed from a surface to a backing surface, wherein when the conductor is maintained at an electric potential sufficient to cause an oxidation or reduction reaction to occur in substances to be treated (3) of a solution entered from an inlet of the perforation and passed through inside the perforation, the substances to be treated are captured or rendered harmless by their oxidation or reduction reaction inside the perforation, and the solution whose concentration is lowered is diffused from an outlet of the perforations. Accordingly to the electrode apparatus, it is possible to prevent leakage and/or diffusion of hazardous or harmful substances into the ambient environment in the event of breakage of equipment, such as a waste disposal landfill, by setting the electrode apparatus around the equipment and by capturing the hazardous or harmful substances, or rendering them harmless by their redox reaction.

摘要： A wet oxidation/reduction electrolytic cell, system, and method for the remediation of contaminated water is disclosed. A porous electrode of large surface area produces powerful oxidizing agents in situ without having to add any reagents, oxidizers, or catalysts to the water to be treated. Further, by the appropriate selection of electrode material, organic contaminants may be absorbed onto the surface of the electrode and subsequently oxidized to provide a dynamically renewable porous electrode surface. Flow rates, and power requirements may be tailored to the specific moieties to be removed, thus allowing local treatment of specific waste streams resulting in direct discharge to a publicly owned treatment works (POTW) or surface water discharge. A novel feature of this invention is the ability to remove both organic and metal contaminants without the addition of treatment reagents or catalysts.

摘要： A waste water stream containing cyanide bearing compounds and heavy metals such as copper, silver, nickel, iron and the like is directed from a source after pH adjustment to a first tank containing adsorption material in the form of granular activated carbon. The waste water is oxygenated by compressed air. The cyanide bearing compounds and heavy metal are adsorbed onto the surface of the adsorption material which is pretreated to an initial pH in the range between about 8.5 to 11. The effluent from the first tank is pH adjusted by a pH controller which adds a caustic solution to the effluent to maintain a control point pH. The pH adjusted effluent is directed toward a second tank containing pretreated adsorption materials. The water stream free of cyanide and metal contaminants is directed to an effluent tank for safe discharge. Thereafter a stripping solution preferably containing sulfuric acid is circulated through the tank to remove the adsorbed metal for the adsorption material. The metal is carried by the stripping solution from the tank to an electrolytic metal recovery unit. The unit includes a cathode terminal and the stripping solution passes through a voltage potential resulting in electrolytic deposit of the heavy metal onto the cathode terminal. The stripping solution free of the heavy metal is returned to a tank for reuse in the adsorption process. The cathode terminal is removed from the metal recovery unit to allow recovery of the metal for reuse.
