Abstract:
Electrodes for electrolysis of water, for encouraging growth of algae and aerobic bacteria, for removing suspended solids from wastewater during treatment, or for rendering water sterile and potable have a concrete coating over a metallic or carbon fibre core. The coating is from 2 to 50 mm thick; preferably 5 to 25 mm thick. Preferably, a DC current passed between the immersed electrodes periodically reversed but there is no visible "rusting" at the anode if the DC current is steady. The resistive nature of the concrete tends to suppress concentrations of current upon the electrode surface.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for automatically producing nano-gold/silver ionized water, the method including: a raw water supply step in which raw water is filtered by a filter F, passed through a flow control valve V for controlling the amount of raw water, and supplied after the amount of raw water is measured by a flow meter M in real time; a nano-gold/silver ionized water production step in which after the amount of the raw water is measured by the flow meter M, the raw water is passed through a nano-gold/silver ionized water producer P to produce nano- gold/silver ionized water; a control step in which a controller C connected to the nano-gold/silver ionized water producer P controls a microprocessor and a driver, which control the filter F and the flow meter M, a current/voltage driver, and the opening/closing of a valve; and a sensing step in which a sensor I connected to the controller C measures the amount and concentration of ionized water passing through the nano-gold/silver ionized water producer P to optimally supply the nano-gold/silver ionized water. Moreover, the present invention provides an apparatus for automatically producing nano- gold/silver ionized water having a simplified structure. Therefore, the apparatus can be easily fabricated with low cost. Since the ionized water is continuously produced using a waterway through which raw water flows, differently from the conventional techniques in which the raw water stays in a reservoir, it is possible to solve problems such as settlement of ionized water, and thus it is possible to produce nano-gold/silver ionized water having a desired concentration of gold/silver ions within a short period of time. As a result, the antibacterial and sterilizing activity which is an intrinsic property of the nano-gold/silver ions is improved, and the thus produced ionized water having strong detergency can be used as antibacterial and sterilizing water.
