Revolutionizing Water & Wastewater Treatment with Electrocoagulation
Delving Blue recognizes the potential of EC technology and has gone one step further by replacing sacrificial electrodes with polarity reversal electrodes to boost the longevity and efficiency of this innovative technology. Integrating it into existing water treatment schemes to provide tailored solutions for specific water quality challenges. By combining novel EC with other advanced treatment processes, we can achieve optimal results and ensure sustainable water management.
Why Choose EC?
- 20-30% less sludge than chemical coagulation
- 10-20% more cost effective
- 9x lower operational cost
- 1-2 kwh/m3 energy use
- Chemical-free, by-product-free
- Conducive to down-stream processes
- Lower area footprint
- Retrofit any process flow
- High floc forming efficiency
Comparison with Traditional Technologies
Feature | Electrocoagulation | Chemical Coagulation |
---|---|---|
Sludge Production | Typically produces 20-30% less sludge than chemical coagulation. | Produces 50-70% more sludge than electrocoagulation. |
Energy Use | Requires approximately 1-2 kWh/m³ of treated water. | Requires minimal energy for chemical dosing, typically less than 0.5 kWh/m³. |
Operating Cost | Can be 10-20% more cost-effective in the long run due to reduced chemical costs. | Can be 5-15% less expensive in the short term but may have higher long-term costs due to chemical purchases and disposal. |
Environmental Impact | Generally considered more environmentally friendly, as it avoids the introduction of additional chemicals into the wastewater. | Can have a greater environmental impact due to the use and disposal of chemical coagulants. |
Treatment Efficiency | Generally comparable to chemical coagulation for many types of pollutants, but may be more effective for certain contaminants, such as heavy metals and organic matter. | Generally effective for a wide range of pollutants, but may be less effective for certain contaminants, such as color or turbidity. |
Plant Area Requirement | Lowest area requirement as no retention time required for EC. | Needs large area requirement as compared to EC for successful formation of flocs. |
