Abstract: An apparatus for increasing the quantity of dissolved oxygen in water. The apparatus includes an inlet for receiving untreated water. A cell housing having an electrolytic cell therein is coupled to the inlet. A resident time housing is connected to the cell housing for receiving water having oxygen and hydrogen gas therein. The resident time housing is vertically oriented and longitudinally extending for a selected vertical length above the cell housing. This provides sufficient resident time of the water in a quiet zone to permit the generated oxygen gas to transition into the dissolved state prior to reaching the top of the resident time housing. An outlet is provided at the top of the resident time housing. Treated water having a high dissolved oxygen content is delivered out of the outlet. A gas vent is provided at the outlet to permit the escape of hydrogen or other gases which have not been dissolved into the water. Preferably, a chill unit is provided prior to the electrolytic cell to reduce the temperature of the water to make it pleasing for human consumption and also to increase the quantity of dissolved oxygen which can enter the water. Additionally, a light or other artistic display may be provided adjacent to or with the resident time housing for the pleasure of viewers.

Abstract translation: 一种用于增加水中溶解氧的量的装置。 该装置包括用于接收未经处理的水的入口。 其中具有电解池的电池外壳连接到入口。 驻留时间壳体连接到电池壳体，用于接收其中具有氧气和氢气的水。 驻留时间壳体是垂直取向的并纵向延伸以在单元壳体上方选定的垂直长度。 这提供了在安静区域中足够的水的驻留时间，以允许所产生的氧气在到达驻留时间外壳的顶部之前转变到溶解状态。 驻地时间房屋顶部设有一个出口。 具有高溶解氧含量的处理水从出口输出。 出口处设有排气口，以允许氢气或其他未溶解在水中的气体逸出。 优选地，在电解池之前提供冷却单元以降低水的温度以使其令人满意的人食用，并且还增加可进入水的溶解氧的量。 此外，可以在居民时间外围附近或与居民时间住房相邻提供轻型或其他艺术展示，以供观众欣赏。
