Abstract:
An apparatus for producing electrolytic reduced water capable of improving the sterilization performance and a control method thereof, the apparatus including an electrolytic cell configured to produce electrolytic reduced water by electrolyzing purified water that is penetrated through a reverse osmosis filter of a water purifying unit, a water storage tank configured to store the electrolytic reduced water, a sterilization electrolytic cell configured to produce sterilization water by electrolyzing reverse osmosis waste water that is discharged from the water purifying unit, and a control unit configured to perform a control operation to sterilize at least one of the water storage tank, a cork connected to the water storage tank, and a pipe that connect the water storage tank to the electrolytic cell by use of the sterilization water.
Abstract:
A gas sensor module, a refrigerator having the same and a control method for the refrigerator. In another aspect, in a gas sensor module, ion pairs are pre-dissolved in an aqueous solution while the amount thereof and pH of an initial aqueous solution may be adjusted to adjust a sensing range and sensitivity with respect to a target gas to be sensed. In another aspect, the gas sensor module senses the amount of target gas includes an aqueous solution in which ion pairs of a substance having the same dissociation constant as the target gas are dissolved, and senses a pH change of the aqueous solution that occurs due to the target gas being dissolved in the aqueous solution.
Abstract:
A capacitive deionization apparatus provided with an electrode including ferroelectrics having a high dielectric constant, the capacitive deionization apparatus including an electrode including a cathode and an anode while having at least one of the cathode and the anode formed using dielectric material, and a power source unit configured to apply a voltage to the electrode.
Abstract:
An apparatus for producing electrolytic reduced water capable of electrolyzing purified water, which is filtered through reverse osmosis, by use of concentrated water that remains after the purification. The apparatus includes a water purifying apparatus, and an electrolytic cell provided with a first chamber having a cathode, a second chamber having an anode, and a third chamber disposed between the first chamber and the second chamber to receive concentrated water from the water purifying apparatus.
Abstract:
An apparatus for producing reducing water that maintains a neutral range of pH and exhibits superior reducing force. The apparatus for producing reducing water includes an electrolytic bath including a cathode chamber provided with a cathode, an anode chamber provided with an anode, and an intermediate chamber interposed between the cathode chamber and the anode chamber, wherein the cathode chamber and the intermediate chamber are provided with an inlet through which water is supplied, and an outlet through which water is discharged, a cation exchange membrane is provided between the cathode chamber and the intermediate chamber, and the intermediate chamber includes a cation exchange resin that dissociates hydrogen ions when the cation exchange resin reacts with water.
