Abstract: An electrode formed of synthetically produced, electrically conductive, doped diamond particles embedded in a carrier layer formed of electrically non-conductive material, wherein the diamond particles protrude on both sides of the carrier layer and come from a grain size range of 170 ?m to 420 ?m, wherein the diamond particles in the electrode have grain sizes which differ from one another by at most 50 ?m. At most 10% of the diamond particles have a grain size outside the particular grain size range.

Abstract: Apparatus for the hygienic disposal of human excretion products, having pants made of a gas- and liquid-tight and elastic material having a waistband and leg bands having inner side inserts made of open-cell foam, the pants having an inner side covered with open-cell foam and/or elastic nubs, being provided with at least one suction hose connectable to a suction device or being able to be connected to such and having a device for introducing liquid.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrochemical method for determining the DOC and/or TOC and/or IC content in a water sample by means of anodic oxidation on electrodes in a closed electrolysis cell, wherein the carbon is oxidized at least partially to carbon dioxide (CO2). The carbon dioxide thereby formed is collected in a closed gas space, wherein, in the range of the essentially linear increase in the CO2 content in the gas space, the rate at which this increase takes place is determined and used in an analyzer unit to determine the DOC and/or TOC and/or IC content.

Abstract: An electrode formed of synthetically produced, electrically conductive, doped diamond particles (2) embedded in a carrier layer (1) formed of electrically non-conductive material, wherein the diamond particles (2) protrude on both sides of the carrier layer (1) and come from a grain size range of 170 ?m to 420 ?m, wherein the diamond particles (2) in the electrode have grain sizes which differ from one another by at most 50 ?m. At most 10% of the diamond particles (2) have a grain size outside the particular grain size range.

Abstract: A drop-in cell for the electrolytic purification of water, for example bathwater or service water, with an electrolysis cell that can carry a flow of water, is built into an oblong, e.g., cylindrical, electrically insulating sheath or jacket, and has two contact electrodes mutually positioned a distance apart from each other. A float is situated at least at the one end region of the jacket.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electrode for an electrochemical cell, which is either a piece of a monocrystal grown from doped titanium dioxide or which contains a multiplicity of monocrystals grown from doped titanium dioxide.

Abstract: A method for producing a diamond electrode comprising synthetically produced and electrically conductive (doped) diamond particles, which are embedded into a support layer of electrically non-conductive material. The doped diamond particles are introduced as a single layer between two films that form the support layer, the films then being permanently connected to each other and the diamond particles being exposed on both sides of the support layer.
