There are provided a water treating method and water treating apparatus which can significantly improve an effect of eliminating microorganisms contained in water intended for drinking and cooking or waster water and a hydroponics system using the apparatus. The method comprises a first treating step of immersing an electrode and carbon fibers capable of collecting at least microorganisms in a passage of for-treatment water and applying a positive potential to the carbon fibers and a negative potential to the electrode so as to adsorb the microorganisms on the carbon fibers, a second treating step of stopping flow of the for-treatment water after completion of the first treating step and increasing the potentials applied to the carbon fibers and the electrode in the presence of the for-treatment water, while polarities of the potentials applied to the carbon fibers and the electrode are kept, so as to cause electrolysis of the for-treatment water, and a third treating step of applying an alternating voltage between the electrode and the carbon fibers in the presence of the for-treatment water after completion of the second treating step.

In a circulation system of treatment-object water (waste water), a water treating apparatus and a pH adjuster are provided. A carbon fiber that can collect at least microorganisms is disposed in the water treating apparatus. The carbon fiber is immersed in the treatment-object water, and potential is applied to the carbon fiber. Further, pH of the treatment-object water is adjusted by the pH adjuster in a direction in which adsorption of microorganisms in the treatment-object water to the carbon fiber is facilitated. As a result, the microorganisms are strongly attracted and adsorbed to the carbon fiber.

摘要:
There is provided a water treating method which can not only improve an effect of eliminating microorganisms in water intended for cooking and drinking or waste water but also prevent a reduction in trace amounts of nutritional elements. In the method, at least a pair of carbon fibers capable of collecting at least microorganisms are immersed in for-treatment water, potentials of opposite polarities are applied to the carbon fibers, and the polarities of the potentials are switched at a predetermined time interval so as to adsorb the microorganisms on the carbon fibers. After the microorganisms are adsorbed, a positive potential is applied to one of the carbon fibers, and a negative potential is applied to the other so as to cause electrolysis. Then, an alternating voltage is applied to the carbon fibers so as to heat the for-treatment water and the carbon fibers.
