Electrocoagulation Technology
for Challenging Water
We have incorporated an electrocoagulation treatment process with a patented Cyclonic Pellet EC system “CPEC”. This cutting edge EC technology is designed to deliver maximum treatment productivity while virtually eliminating conventional parallel plate system issues.
The CPEC™ Cyclonic Pellet EC is the distinct economic and environmental choice for meeting water treatment discharge standards and compliance requirements.
Each CPEC system is custom designed and built to the exact requirements of the specific application. It begins with a detailed project questionnaire, and an initial water system analysis to correctly size the proper CPEC system.
A revolutionary concept in EC water treatment
With the CPEC™ system conventional electrodes are replaced by metal pellets that are set in a cyclonic motion by the stream of water being treated. Electrodes located at the top and bottom of the reaction chamber and are directly tied to the power source. This physical interaction of the rotating CPEC pellets prevents corrosion and removes scale as it forms. Since plate fouling is no longer a limiting factor, electrical current can be set higher to increase contaminant separation and improve system productivity.
- Cyclonic pellets process
- Simultaneously removes Silica, Heavy metals, COD/BOD & more
- No metal plates to corrode remove or dispose
- Low maintenance & operating cost
- Small system footprint
- Minimal downtime
CPEC™ Cyclonic Pellet EC system
CPEC pellets are consumed entirely by the treatment process and are automatically replenished by a feeder unit for continuous operation. CPEC systems run reliably with minimal downtime and very little operator intervention. CPEC footprints are smaller and equipment is significantly lighter than conventional EC plate systems.
A standard 100 GPM EC generally requires 140 electrode plates mounted in a 10’ x 10’ space. A comparable CPEC system would only need a 5’ x 5’ space for a 30” reactor, ancillary pump.
Ultrafiltration, Reverse Osmosis (RO)
Each of these technologies open a new era in water regeneration and conservation, while economically answering industry’s and environmentalists’ most pressing water concerns.
Removes multiple contaminates simultaneously
CPEC™ can address multiple contaminants simultaneously without the conventional EC plate maintenance expenses. With CPEC™ water systems managers can now effectively and economically treat complex water
Parallel plate EC systems work extremely well, but there are some drawbacks!
Electrocoagulation (EC) is an established water treatment technology where an electric current is passed through water using a series of large parallel metal plates. As the process continues contaminates in the water are chemically combined forming sludge.
- Maintenance, shutdown, cleaning and replacement of metal plates is time- consuming and expensive.
- Traditional EC systems have large footprints and space requirements.
- Corrosion and passivation of the electrode plates dramatically decreases system effectiveness with continuous use.
