  • Patent number: 9738552
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for treating waste water utilizing two energized agitated electrochemical reaction reactor units (each utilizing approximately 10 amps per gallon) with a reaction time of approximately 5 minutes wherein the first reaction vessel has a pH below 7 and a second reaction vessel has a pH of above the pH of the first reaction vessel and the effluent flows from a first agitated electrochemical reaction vessel to a degassing tank and then flows to a second agitated electrochemical reaction vessel and then to a flocculation tank.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: August 22, 2017
    Inventor: Dan Prokop
  • Patent number: 8877032
    Abstract: The disclosure teaches an apparatus for circulating electrically conductive solutions between electro-chemical cells. The apparatus is able to decrease the size or surface area of the cells and operate the electro-chemical at reduced amperage. Movement of the solution over the plates also facilitates reduced build up of scale on the plates. The flow rate or treatment dwell time can be controlled.
