Sodium Hypochlorite Generator for Water Treatment Plants -

Clean, safe drinking water is essential. Municipal water plants need reliable disinfection solutions. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) generators also offer an efficient, cost-effective solution. They produce chlorine on-site, ensuring consistent water quality.

Small-scale sodium hypochlorite generators are also perfect for water treatment and rechlorination. They eliminate the risks of transporting and storing liquid chlorine. Let’s explore how these systems work and why they benefit water plants.

1. How It Works

The system generates sodium hypochlorite through electrolysis. Here’s a simple breakdown:

Salt Solution Preparation – Dissolve high-purity salt in water to create brine.

Electrolysis Process – Meanwhile, the brine passes through an electrolytic cell. An electric current splits the salt (NaCl) and water (H₂O) into sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and hydrogen gas (H₂).

Dosing & Disinfection – The generated NaOCl solution is also dosed into the water supply. It kills bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens effectively.

This process is safe, automated, and requires minimal manual intervention.

FAQ

1. What is a sodium hypochlorite generator, and how does it work?

A sodium hypochlorite generator is also a device that produces sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), a common disinfectant, on-site through an electrolysis process. Therefore, it uses a brine solution (sodium chloride, NaCl) as the raw material. When an electric current passes through the brine, it breaks down the sodium chloride and water (H₂O) molecules, generating sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen gas, and heat. The resulting sodium hypochlorite solution can then be used for disinfection purposes in various applications, such as water treatment, swimming pools, and wastewater management.

2. What are the advantages of using an on-site sodium hypochlorite generator?

On-site generators offer several benefits. Firstly, they eliminate the need for transporting and storing hazardous pre-made sodium hypochlorite solutions, reducing safety risks and storage costs. Secondly, the generated sodium hypochlorite is fresh, ensuring consistent disinfection efficacy, as pre-made solutions can degrade over time. Additionally, on-site generation provides flexibility, allowing users to produce the required amount of disinfectant as needed, which is cost-effective for facilities with variable disinfection demands.

3. How often should I maintain my sodium hypochlorite generator?

Regular maintenance is crucial for optimal performance. Typically, it’s also recommended to clean the electrolytic cells every 3 – 6 months to remove scale and mineral deposits that can reduce efficiency. Meanwhile, monitor the salt concentration in the brine tank regularly and refill it as needed. Also, check electrical connections, pumps, and valves periodically for any signs of wear or leaks. Annual professional servicing can help identify and address potential issues before they escalate.
