Micro-electrolytic Reactor

The micro-electrolysis reactor technology utilizes the potential difference between iron-carbon particles, forming countless tiny primary batteries. These tiny batteries have the low-potential iron as the negative electrode and the high-potential carbon as the positive electrode, undergoing electrochemical reactions in an acidic electrolyte solution. The result of the reaction is the corrosion of iron, which turns into ferrous ions and enters the solution. Due to the flocculating effect of the iron ions, they are attracted to the slightly negatively charged particles in the pollutants, forming relatively stable flocs (also known as iron sludge) for removal.

● Dye and dyeing wastewater; coking wastewater; petrochemical wastewater; --- The aforementioned wastewater, while decolorizing, significantly improves the BOD/COD values in the treated water.

● Oil wastewater; leather wastewater; papermaking wastewater, wood processing wastewater; ---- The BOD/COD values of the aforementioned wastewater after treatment are significantly improved.

Electroplating wastewater; printing wastewater; mining wastewater; other wastewater containing heavy metals ---- heavy metals can be removed from the above wastewater.

● Organophosphorus agricultural wastewater; Organochlorine agricultural wastewater; ----Greatly enhances the biodegradability of the aforementioned wastewater, and capable of phosphorus and sulfide removal.

Features

● Fast reaction rate, typically only a few minutes to a few hours for general industrial wastewater.

The scope of organic pollutants is broad, including: non-degradable organic substances containing azo, carbon double bonds, nitro, and halogenated groups.

● Extremely low operating costs, consuming only a small amount of elemental iron (the most ideal and cost-effective being metal processing waste iron shavings)

● Long service life, easy operation and maintenance; the micro-electrolysis tower only requires regular addition of iron shavings; inert electrodes do not need to be replaced; corroded electrodes should be replenished twice a year.

● Excellent coagulation effect, with high COD removal rate.

This method can serve both as a standalone treatment process and as a pretreatment for the biological method. In addition to enhancing the biochemical properties of the wastewater, it benefits the settling performance of activated sludge and the film formation performance of the biofilm method.

This method achieves the effect of chemical precipitation for phosphorus removal and can also remove heavy metals through reduction.
