Filtered raw water is fed into the water softener unit to remove hardness-causing elements (such as Ca, Mg, etc.), preventing them from adhering to the electrode surface and thus maintaining the facility's performance.
The saturated brine solution required for electrolysis is easily prepared in brine preparation tank by mixing salt with softened water.
During electrolysis of brine, Cl2 (produced from oxidized Cl− ions) reacts with NaOH, (formed by Na+ ions reacting with H2O), to produce Sodium Hypochlorite (NaOCl). Hydrogen (H2) is also generated from the reaction of Na+ ions with H2O.
Sodium Hypochlorite & Hydrogen Gas are transferred to the product tank together; Sodium Hypochlorite is stored before dosing, while Hydrogen is transferred for disposal.
Hydrogen Gas, occurred as a natural byproduct of brine electrolysis from the reaction of Na+ ions with H2O, is diluted 100 times and safely discharged into the atmosphere without being stored in our system.
Electrochlorination systems not only produce chlorine but also deliver it in the desired amounts via pumps. Furthermore, HypoX® dosing units offer a range of automation features with PLC that simplify the process, enhance user comfort, and prevent chlorine fluctuations.
