Method for the continuous electrolytic production of chlorine for the sterilization of water

Abstract

Abstract An apparatus for continuous electrolytic production of chlorine in sterilize water, comprisng a nonconductive housing divided into an upper chamber and a lower chamber, a motor-turned shaft disposed through both chambers provided with a rotative disc for each chamber, a syphon affording liquid communication between the chambers, electrodes disposed in the upper chamber, a water inlet line disposed over the upper disc, the syphon outlet disposed over the lower disc, a gas exhuast line in the upper chamber and a water outlet line at the base of the lower chamber. The method of electrolyzing an electrically conductive solution by fragmentizing it before it reaches the electrodes, gathering the drops back into solution in the presence of the electrodes, refragmentizing the solution on leaving the electrodes and regathering the drops into solution.
