The Impact of Continuous Electrochlorination
In today’s world, the demand for clean and safe water has never been higher. As industries and municipalities strive to meet stringent water quality standards, continuous electrochlorination systems have emerged as a leading solution. Pristine Water, a leading manufacturer and supplier of electrochlorination systems, offers both seawater and brine types, catering to diverse needs across the globe. This blog explores the benefits, workings, and applications of continuous electrochlorination systems and why Pristine Water’s solutions stand out in the market.
What is Continuous Electrochlorination?
Continuous electrochlorination is a water disinfection process where chlorine is generated on-site through the electrolysis of saltwater (brine) or seawater. This chlorine is then used to treat water, eliminating harmful pathogens and ensuring the water is safe for consumption and industrial use. Unlike traditional chlorine methods, continuous electrochlorination minimizes the risks associated with chlorine transportation and storage, making it a safer and more environmentally friendly choice.
How Does Continuous Electrochlorination Work?
The process involves several key stages:
- Brine/Seawater Preparation: Depending on the type of system—brine or seawater—salt is dissolved in water to create a concentrated solution that serves as the chlorine source.
- Electrolysis: This solution is passed through an electrolyzer where a direct electric current splits the salt molecules into chlorine gas (Cl2), hydrogen gas (H2), and sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The chlorine gas is immediately dissolved in the water, forming hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a powerful disinfectant.
- Chlorination: The generated chlorine solution is continuously dosed into the water supply, providing real-time disinfection based on demand.
Monitoring and Control: Advanced systems are equipped with sensors and automation to monitor chlorine levels, ensuring consistent and effective disinfection.
