Description

The process for non-chemical plasma ion disinfection of water and device
The present invention relates to the improvement of water sterilization, for example specifically relate to be used for improvement in the processing of the recirculation current of cooling tower air-conditioning system, Coin operated laundry washing water and rinse water, hospital and commercial laundry, swimming pool, drinking water source, water source, aircraft washroom and some industry and commercial current.
Sterilization completely, just to eliminate and remove bacterium, virus etc. be an increasingly important problem in the current field widely.On the one hand, since with chemical additive for example by chlorization or add halogen title complex method of disinfecting (being unique commercially sterilising methods recent decades basically) toxin can be introduced in the water and will ban use of in many industries and as if more and more become certainty, on the other hand, owing to having recognized the value of the water of chemical purification and processing, municipality improved their tax revenue, so the cost of the commercial apparatus that needs the water source is increased rapidly more.
For example, when present patent application, the Sheng Diyage in California (San Diego, California) the initial online tax of every Tianwan businessman's industry washing machine is 6000 dollars, general Coin operated laundry machine room has 50 washing machines, and like this, its initial business tax expenditure has 300000 dollars utterly.Adopt recycled water can significantly reduce this high commercial cost.Similarly (Orlando), Florida (Florida) and other U.S. administrative area occur situation in the Orlando, particularly make the water source be on the verge of the local all the more so of exhaustion owing to population growth and similar factor.Final user, investor and administration all equally seek can to above-mentioned and much the local used big water gaging of for example Coin operated laundry, other public place, restaurant, the processing of industrial washing water, commercial hospital laundry, swimming pool, hot spring or the like carry out the safe, reliably and the low method and apparatus of cost of recirculation.
The subject matter of the recycled water of above-mentioned these device usefulness is sterilization, so that eliminate all bacteriums, protozoon, virus etc. effectively, particularly those can cause now that for example the increase of the sickness rate of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), tuberculosis etc. and other can be carried the germ of the communicate illness of propagating by water by the infectious disease of respiratory tract.Chlorization usually is invalid for the sort of current that contain fat or other lipid and gelatinoid of sterilization.Therefore, press for not to from above-mentioned or similarly the current at water source carry out the safety of chlorization and sterilization method and sterilizing unit reliably.
The sterilizing method of water also becomes and more and more needs in improvement cooling tower heat exchange and the air-conditioning system.In these systems, adopt the heat exchange of air and water to reduce the temperature of air, then chilled air is pumped into will lower the temperature indoor, then again water is sprayed into the transpiration cooling in the cooling tower and re-use.Refrigeration water air-conditioning system (water wherein is by carrying out heat exchange and refrigerative with cooling agent) also needs sterilization.More particularly, understand recently, many height cause death germ, particularly can cause that the Legionnella of " legionnaires disease " and tuberculosis germ all found the ideal breeding ground in cooling tower and refrigeration water recirculation system.These bacteriums can enter by damage and the run-down positions such as welding joint in the common treating water system in the air in the ventilation plant.Therefore, effective device being set is very important with mushroom and the spreading of other breathing pathogenic bacterium that the water in this cooling tower and the refrigeration water air conditioner device is carried out disinfection, prevents above-mentioned danger.
" water source " that is used for waiting between flushing sanitation on the aircraft also needs reliable and sterilization completely.Because the meeting of the air pressure in aircraft cabin flip-flop, it is just particularly important therefore this water to be carried out disinfection.When cabin air pressure reduces suddenly, be dissolved in the vapour pressure that the vapour pressure of storing the gas in the water source may be higher than air, the result, a large amount of gas can enter in the recirculated air in cabin fiercely.Owing to be collected in the pollution that water in the aircraft water storage tank obviously is subjected to various refuses, the gas dissolved that discharges may contain a large amount of bacteriums, virus etc. and infects pathogeny suddenly, and this health for passenger's respiratory tract is very dangerous.Therefore, obviously extremely need the waste water of aircraft is carried out disinfection.Because because of the restriction of weight, the water on the aircraft recycles, and that is to say, be used between flushing sanitation repeatedly, so it is particularly important that aircraft is already gone up the sterilization at water source.It is to be not enough to remove the various disease carrying germs that carry in the water that water in repeatedly using is carried out simple intermediate filtered.
Also have many utmost points need to current carry out thoroughly and reliably disinfectant, especially can not use chlorization or add other and do not meet the place that environmental requirement and dangerous chemical substance are carried out water sterilization, comprise drinking water source, hospital and commercial laundry, swimming pool, hot spring, industrial washing operation etc.
The present invention relates generally to the sterilization of above-mentioned current being carried out with special efficient manner.In fact the various current that run into also all require pre-treatment and aftertreatment work steps such as additional filtration, precipitation, flocculation.Disclosed concrete disinfectant component and processing step can be used in combination with disclosed assembly in the applicant's relevant patent and the pending application application and technology and known assembly in the present patent application, so that the current to each particular procedure provide chemically treated apparatus and method, and provide " enough having a surplus " disinfecting power.
For example, (applying date: 1995.7.7), the applicant discloses a kind of plasma air-flow, flocculation agent and other additive and current to be processed particularly advantageous mixing vessel of blended mutually that is used to make to continue patent application No.08/481994 in United States Patent (USP) 5443719 and part thereof.In case of necessity, the content of this patent and pending application can be combined with this patent.And for example, in U.S. Patent application No.08/326339, the applicant has proposed a kind of device that is used to make the uviolizing airflow and produces ionized gas atom and molecular flow.These ionization air-flows comprise singlet molecular oxygen, Ionized Sauerstoffatom, ozone, ionized nitrogen and other ionized gas material.These ionized gas atomic currents (also being referred to as plasma in this patent sometimes) also are used for present patent application.Also be used to produce this Ionized gas atom and molecular flow at the ad hoc structure shown in the U.S. Patent application No.08/326339.(applying date: 1996.4.4: the improvement attorney docket No.DJ-11) also is used in this patent at the part continuation application No.08/627227 of the U.S..
In the patent application No.08/377620 of the U.S., the applicant has proposed several dissimilar devices that current are carried out pre-treatment and aftertreatment of the present invention that can be used for, and how disclosed mixing vessel is used to handle current effectively among these devices of additional disclosure and the above-mentioned patent No.5443719.In addition, also can be used for combining at the parts shown in the patent application No.08/377620, so that particular water to be processed is carried out disinfection with new device of the present invention and novel method.
At last, in U.S. Patent application No.08/377621, the applicant has proposed a kind of improved water Sterilizers that can produce the ionized gas plasma jet simultaneously, and if necessary, this Sterilizers also can be used in combination with sterilizing unit of the present invention.Above-mentioned several pending application applications are all included the present invention in as a reference.
An object of the present invention is to provide a kind of sterilization method and device of water of improved method non-chemically, that is to say, do not add chlorine or other toxic substance and water is carried out disinfection.
Another object of the present invention provides that a kind of to water method of disinfecting and device, this method is also undiscovered so far by producing several ion sterilizing agents, and the energy expenditure of its processing ease, sterilizing unit is low.
According to of the present invention current method of disinfecting and device are comprised: add one or more special metal ionic currents of disengaging by sacrificial electrode and/or from the specific sterilization ion of salt to current, and introduce the air-flow that contains different kinds of ions oxidizing gases material to current simultaneously.In a kind of embodiment of comprehensive all above-mentioned sterilization sources, from current to be processed, distribute 10~20% in sub-fraction current, for example current.Make these sub-fraction current the mean residence time that salt that granulous will introduce the material in the current for example stops at least one section minimum in the container of Silver monobromide, Sodium Bromide, Calcium Bromide or Silver iodide, sodium iodide, calcium iodide (industrial other purpose that can be used for) is housed at one.Again these sub-fraction current are imported in the main current again, then spray into the atom that contains ozone, Ionized oxygen and nitrogen and molecule and the similar airflow of the ionized gas material of hyperoxia voltinism.These plasma jets can be by substantially as the U.S. Patent application No.08/326339 or the No.08/627227 (applying date: 1996.4.4; Attorney docket No.DJ-11) disclosed uviolizing chamber produces in.Contain the sub-fraction current of backflow and introduced the current of Ionized air-flow then by two pairs or the how right metallic substance sacrificial electrode that contains the metal ion that will add in the current.
In a particularly advantageous embodiment, in current, add a large amount of manganese by adopting copper/manganese or manganese/silver-colored sacrificial electrode.Also can adopt copper/silver electrode.In the metallic substance of electrode, can add≤10.0wt%.Silicon oxide catalyst.Under any situation, all the reverse repeatedly direct supply of the timed interval about cross-over connection polarity between two electrodes is with the several seconds makes it slowly and continuously to discharge to current to be used for the disinfectant metal ion.
According to particular water to be processed, can adopt the difference of above-mentioned these disinfection technologies comprehensively and with the filtration of implementing according to the described method of pending application application routine or above-mentioned, precipitation, flocculation and similar usual way to combine.
By can more understanding the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings, in the accompanying drawing:
Fig. 1 is the total figure that carries out the disinfectant cooling tower air-conditioning system of recirculation cooling water according to the present invention;
Figure 1A is the another kind of structure of similar Fig. 1 system;
Fig. 2 makes a part of current to be processed contact with salt and adds Ionized gas plasma and a kind of possible structure of the assembly of metal ion stream in current;
Fig. 3 makes current and the contacted a kind of special details of an embodiment of assembly easily of salt;
Fig. 4 is the sketch according to the device that the recirculation on aircraft flushing water source is carried out disinfection of the present invention;
Fig. 5 is the sketch that adopts the commercial Coin operated laundry waterworks of sterilizing unit of the present invention and method.
Fig. 1 illustrates the artificial atmosphere of the adopting sterilization method of the present invention simple structure with the typical cooling tower system of water coolant.Shown concrete structure representative capacity reaches 100 tons cooling tower system, and certainly, this device can carry out work in parallel, perhaps further repacks bigger system into.
The cardinal principle of this cooling tower system is: the water by airflow heating by heat exchange relationship is downward through cooling tower, it is exposed in the atmosphere and cools off.And then make chilled water and airflow carry out heat exchange, and making air cooling, this process repeats.Then, more chilled air is imported will lower the temperature indoor.
For example, as shown in Figure 1, water coolant is imported in a plurality of heat exchangers 10, the refrigerative air then to flow through this heat exchanger by the direction shown in 12, and then these air are imported will lower the temperature indoor.Water is delivered to cooling tower 14 by pipeline after leaving heat exchanger 10.In cooling tower 14, make its with transfer of heat in atmosphere.Afterwards, in the current screw clamp 16 that is cooled, by pump 18 water pump in the tank 16 is got back in the heat exchanger 10 circulation that Here it is again.In relevant water cooling system, above-mentioned cooling tower changes or adds that the heat exchange steps of the coolant (be freonll-11 in the past, and used the coolant that contains non-Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) base now instead) that uses a kind of easy Quench further makes water for cooling into.The person skilled in the art is bound to understand this replacement.
As mentioned above, this cooling tower and water coolant air-conditioning system for those can invading air systems, particularly provide the breeding place of fecund by the virus in the invading air systems such as not close welding joint in the heat exchanger and other pathogenic bacteria.These bacteriums, for example Legionnella or tuberculosis germ are very dangerous, and its harm can be fatal.Bringing out the virus of various respiratory tract diseases can propagate in a similar manner.The utmost point does not advocate that the flower high price is transformed existing cooling tower or the water coolant air-conditioning system can make bacterium or the viral position (promptly enabling to reach this purpose) that enters in the air system to scheme eliminating all.The cooling tower system is in case communicate with atmosphere, just because of the intrusion of airborne bacterium etc. water polluted especially easily.
It is infeasible adopting methods such as for example uviolizing cooled air of sterilizing.More particularly, in order to make airflow be exposed to time enough in the ultraviolet ray so that kill all germs, must carry out strict restriction to the flow velocity of air-flow, also need extremely strong ultraviolet source simultaneously, so just increase the prime cost and the job costs of this system.At last, ultraviolet irradiation also can add warm air, so impair the intention of this device.
Therefore, importantly provide sterilization method thoroughly and reliably to the water-cooling system of cooling tower and air conditioning machinery.
Therefore, sterilizing unit of the present invention is arranged on 20,22 and 24 places.In an illustrated embodiment, about 15% of the total flux of the above-mentioned main current of recovery that pass through first sterilizing unit 20 by valve 23 shuntings.Then, by one or more filtration units the portion water stream shunting is out filtered totally by 26 expressions.These strainers can be the sort of described in the patent application 08/377620 of the U.S., or other has the device of similar functions.Disinfectant part current are back in the main current at 27 places more.The current that enter also can be by second sterilizing unit at 22 places.In the road of current return flume 16, be provided with plasma jet from gas plasma source 24.(for example shown in Fig. 2 detail drawing) in another embodiment, from the plasma jet of plasma source 24 roughly with biological antiseptic device 20 same position places be set inject in the current, with the bacterium complete oxidation in the assurance current, thereby sterilization cold water is beneficial to prevent the diffusion of any bacterium.Pipeline 32 enters any undissolved gas in the cooling tower 14.
The backwash water of filtration unit 26 is provided by aqua storage tank 28.Backwash water can be stored in the water storage flume 30 before entering water drain 31.Be provided with T- valve 34 and 36, carry out suitable being connected with backwashing pump with example.
Obviously, in the embodiment shown in fig. 1, a part of recycled water had passed through sterilization and has filtered before main current 27 are sneaked in backflow.All recycled waters in the said system in a short period of time all by the biological antiseptic device.More particularly, all water is all by biological antiseptic device 22, and plasma jet (gas that just contains various ionized gas atoms) then is added in the backflow at 24 places.As mentioned above, all water can both be by biological antiseptic device 20,22 and filtration unit 26, and said process is finished by complete closed valve 23.
Figure 1A is illustrated in the another kind of structure that adopts water sterilization method of the present invention in the cooling tower air-conditioning system.In this embodiment, the part of the total cooling-water flowing that is pumped by pump 18 is come out and is flow through sterilizing unit 20 and filtration unit 26 flows back to the tank 16 again from heat exchanger 10 shuntings.Present embodiment is than the easier conventional device that makes into of embodiment shown in Figure 1.
Fig. 2 illustrates one-piece construction of current being carried out the device of thorough disinfection (just making oxidation and destruction such as all bacteriums in the water, virus, protozoon) of the present invention.The plasma of ionized gas is supplied with by device 24.For example silver salt, sodium salt, calcium iodide or bromide salt contact part current with the sterilization salt at 44 places.Place shown in 46,48 adds metal ion in the current in the drawings.
At first 44 add disinfection salt in water by means of device, design herein is that the current than shallow bid were contacted with salt in considerable time, and the disinfection salt of significant quantity is dissolved in each strand current, and then reverse osmosis is gone in the initial current and with it and mixed mutually.Do not wish to make whole current to contact, but needn't salt be added in the current the big speed of ether, and will often resupply salt with disinfection salt.
Selected salt can be granulous silver salt, sodium salt or Calcium Bromide or iodate calcium salt or their mixture.For example, according to the present invention, can be earlier that the bromination silver salt is soluble in water, introduce suitable ionized gas plasma atom again, make it form hypobromous acid.This acid has high oxidisability (as following will associative list I the discussion), therefore, is the sterilizing agent of a kind of effective eliminating bacteria and virus.For example, add the acid iodide that the iodate calcium salt just forms similar oxidisability.
The above-mentioned salt that technical specification is arranged can have been bought on market.As mentioned above, water contacts with above-mentioned these salt, and with ionized gas stream mutually the blended result be the hypobromous acid and/or the acid iodide sterilizing agent that can make its original position (just in current itself) formation significant quantity.The very big benefit that original position forms these acid is that these acid have high oxidation capacity at once and can pass through oxygenizement and killing bacteria and virus once forming, and its benefit also is to have avoided fully having corrosive physical treatment and adventurous chemical treatment.
According to an only embodiment who implements this one side of the present invention, required salt 45 is put into the container 46 of sealing.This container 46 is furnished with lid 48, and they all are at commercially available member, and this has just reduced the cost of device of the present invention widely.The details of lid is shown in Fig. 3.As shown in the figure, lid 48 has the interconnection 50 that portion within it forms, and this passage 50 has the inlet end 52 of the current that admittance come in by inlet tube 54.Lid 48 has the identical outlet opening 56 in a cross-sectional area and ingate 52.According to the present invention, section of a pipe 58 is inserted in second hole (outlet opening) of lid so that the cross-sectional area of the outlet side of interconnection 50 is reduced about 20%, this just makes the flow velocity that flows through outlet side generally increase to 20~60psi (gauge pressure), and flow is 30~50 gpms.The increase of flow velocity will form vacuum at flow measurement metering-orifice 60 places during outlet opening 56 by lid, and the macropore 61 of the lower wall that this flow measurement metering-orifice 60 gets out, faces down on pipe 58 and forms by the outlet opening 56 that bores by the interconnection 50 of lid 48 is connected with the inside of container.As shown in the figure, interconnection 50 also is connected with the passage 62 that soaks pipe 64 downward extension that admittance extends downwardly into the following blind end place of container 46.
During use, current to be processed are infeeded by pipe 54.Water is full of container 46 by soaking pipe 64.More a spot of current (1~20% of total water current amount, remaining directly flows through interconnection) are arranged because the flow velocity by outlet opening 56 increases the vacuum that forms by the sucking-offs that make progress from flow measurement metering-orifice 60, shown in arrow among Fig. 2.Container 46 certain hours (this time is depended on the relative cross sectional area of 52 of flow measurement metering-orifice 60 and ingates and the area of the outlet opening that reduced by pipeline section 58) are interior to contact with salt these a spot of current when it remains in.Can be transferred to suitable hole dimension by test, this size is not too strict in certain wide region.For example, the diameter of inlet tube 54 is about 3~4 inches (internal diameters), and, make it reduce 1/3 area by inserting pipeline section 58, then the diameter of flow measurement metering-orifice can be about 0.125~0.183 inch, 1~10% main current is so just arranged by shunting and by the granular salt material 45 in the container 44.The mean residence time of this sub-fraction in container 44 of total water current is about 1~15 minute, in this time, has a certain amount of salt to be dissolved in the current, and is formed with the acid of disinfection when they mix mutually with Ionized air-flow.
(this embodiment does not limit the present invention equally in the embodiment shown in Figure 2, and be example of the present invention), wherein sub-fraction is flowed in the container 44 contains salt and then with after main current combine at current, again by the plasma jet of plasma source introducing ionized gas.The typical component of the plasma jet of ionized gas associative list I below describes in detail.In brief, the ionized gas atom that can be easily obtains to contain significant quantity from plasma generator 68 is the airflow of atomic oxygen, Ionized oxygen atomic group, ozone and Ionized nitrogen etc. for example, and above-mentioned plasma generator sees that U.S. Patent application No.08/326339 and part thereof continue No.08/627227 (applying date 1996.4.4; Attorney docket No.DJ-11).
As described in the above-mentioned patent application, suitable plasma generator 68 (effective source of just airborne ionized gas atomic current) contains a sealing chamber 70 that has gas inlet 72.By a pump or by make under the state of airflow after ionization mix mutually with current and since in the venturi that current form effect airflow is produced suction and with in the airflow suction seal chamber 70.Under any above-mentioned situation, the airflow that enters is all by for example guiding so that with the air in certain amount atomizing/ionizing around UV-lamp (by 76 power supplies of suitable power supply) pipe 75 on every side.This process itself is well-known.What relate to invention in the above-mentioned pending application application makes the particularly advantageous device of the atomizing/ionizing of most of gas with effective and reliable method.The applicant finds that specifically (20~50000Hz), when particularly adopting the pulse power of this frequency, common UV-lamp also can be launched additional ionization infrared rays if adopt high frequency electric source.Described as top pending application application, Ionized gas atom also is subjected to the effect in magnetic field when they are subjected to Ionized radiation effect.Therefore, can under suitable energy expenditure, form ozone, the ionized nitrogen that contains big per-cent and contain ionization singlet oxygen atom and the plasma jet of the ionized oxygen atom of branch subclass.
Above-mentioned ionized gas plasma jet is introduced in the current at 80 places shown in Figure 2.Restriction also can be provided in another venturi and air-flow is sucked in the current, then, from one or more pairs of be installed in pinblock 86 or the similar component and directly with the contacted sacrificial electrode 46,48 of current with in the metal ion stream adding current.Above-mentioned electrode is by the 6~24V that is about of cross-over connection two counter electrode, and 500~5000 milliamperes direct supply 88 is powered.The polarity of galvanic current every the several seconds oppositely once, guaranteeing the even consumption of electrode materials, and prevent that the electroconductibility pollutant sediment is on electrode.
The material of electrode 46,48 changes with the kind that will add the metal ion in the current.The metal ion that adds is selected according to the specific pollution chemistry of relevant current again.Certainly, knew already that copper and silver ions can kill the organism in the current effectively in sterilizing process.Then fewer this type of purpose that is used for of manganese.According to the present invention, silicon-dioxide adds in the electrode materials when melting and casting.Therefore, the relative proportion of copper that contains in the electrode and silver can be: 50~95wt%Cu ,≤1.0wt%SiO 2, surplus Ag; 70~95wt%Cu ,≤1.0wt%SiO 2, surplus Mn; Perhaps: 80~90wt%Mn ,≤10wt%SiO 2At least 5wt%Ag or Cu.Component described in said herein component and the following every claim refers to the electrode materials of weighing before melting and casting becomes electrode.
Have found that the SiO that in the manganese composition, adds especially up to 10wt% provided by the invention 2Be to adopt common casting equipment and to cast out the uniform alloy electrode of these metals necessary.More particularly, in the Cu/Mn mixture, add a spot of SiO 2(form with Powdered silica sand is added in the casting crucible) can make this alloy have comprehensive castability, and this is normally impossible.According to the present invention, also can in Mn/Ag and Cu/Ag electrode component, add SiO 2To improve its castability.The proportional SiO of Mn amount that adds and provided 2Help the uniform mixing in the molten metal.Therefore, according to an importance of the present invention, in the metal of cast electrode, add SiO exactly 2So that the sterilization of water.In sterilizing process, add SiO 2Also be useful.Add SiO 2Cast electrode ablation is also more even in use, this just can increase its useful life.
When needs form special sterilization compound or when using copper in the sacrificial electrode that need avoid being generally used for treating water, can adopt to contain Mn and Ag and as above-mentioned interpolation SiO 2Electrode.Excessive use copper can cause copper to be deposited on the inside of connecting tube and other accessory.
Current to be processed preferably come the metal ion of self- electrode 46,48 to flow with the contacted small portion current of salt face, (2) gas plasma stream and/or (3) with form and (1) of turbulent flow highly to mix mutually.Specifically, the mixing of turbulent flow type can guarantee that the component of current and mn ion and the ionized oxygen in the plasma jet that electrode discharges produce effecting reaction and form for example permanganate group (MnO 4 -).The disinfection principle of other kind of original position formation is discussed below thus.Mixing is effectively sterilized to current thereby device shown in Figure 2 can produce turbulent flow type in pinblock 86.
Usually think all in the prior art that disinfectant mechanism is oxidation, that is to say that the bacterium in the water, virus, algae, protozoon and other adventurous biopathogen bacterium can be killed by contacting with oxidizing substance.Then, remove the residue of its oxidation by filtration, precipitation, cohesion and other known technology (any above-mentioned method or all methods all can combine with disinfection technology of the present invention).The chlorine that is generally used for water treatment also is a kind of oxygenant, that is to say, the chloridization process that is used for water sterilization recent decades and the present invention are used passes through oxygenizement to kill the sterilization method of organism similar.But shown in following Table I, the efficient oxidation effect of chlorine and the chlorine hypochlorite that produces soluble in water (and relevant cholorination is handled compound of usefulness) is in fact much smaller than the oxygenizement that oxygenant is added in the current of the present invention.And when biological germ was encased (this situation is recurrent) by lactous oil, fat, colloidal particle etc. in contaminated water, chlorine can't oxidation and is killed these germs.Therefore, the application of the invention not only can prevent the corrosive nature of chlorine and the side effect of issuable danger, and more effectively finishes sterilizing function owing to improved the oxidation potential of the disinfecting substance that the present invention added.
Table I has compared all kinds of plasmas that produced by plasma generator and other oxidizing substance that forms according to the present invention and the oxidation potential of chlorine and hypochlorite ion in current.Plasma jet comprises Ionized atomic oxygen and molecular oxygen, that is to say to comprise Ionized singlet molecular oxygen and polyatomic ion oxygen molecule, oxygen atomic group and ozone.In plasma generator 68, also produce the nitrogen ion.When plasma jet mixes at 80 places with current, just form additional hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl groups and perhydro group.Come the metal ion of self- electrode 46,48 and Sauerstoffatom to react and form the permanganate ion, react with oxygen and nitrogen ion and form cupric nitrate and Silver Nitrate.Bromide and iodine and plasma gas ion, perhydro group, hydroxyl groups react and form hypobromous acid and acid iodide.
As shown in Table I, add the scope of the ionic oxidation potential in the current from perhydro group (H according to the present invention +) 1.7ev (electron-volt) to the 2.8ev of hydroxyl groups (OH).By more as can be seen, the oxidation potential of chlorine is 1.36ev.
Table I also illustrates the permanganate ion (MnO that is formed by the oxonium ion in manganese that disengages and the water 4 -) oxidation potential and the hypobromous acid H (OBr that combines and generate with the ionized oxygen that adds as the portion gas plasma jet subsequently by the bromide that adds the current in the container 44 -) oxidation potential.The oxidation potential of each all is higher than the chlorine of common use significantly in them.
Also having a row headers in the Table I be " oxidation capacity relatively ", and it is meant that oxidation potential with chlorine is decided to be at 1 o'clock and adds the oxidation potential of the material in the entry by what the ratio form was calculated according to the present invention, in order to comparison.

Though should be understood that and listed chlorine (chlorine is the general hypochlorite that forms in water, and the present invention generally carries out water treatment without these deleterious materials) in the table, should avoid using it, listing these materials in the table only is in order to compare.
At last, should be noted that oxonium ion in silver that is discharged by sacrificial electrode and cupric ion and the water and nitrogen ion combine and form Silver Nitrate (AgNO 3) and cupric nitrate (CuNO 3), they can provide additional sterilization and algae removal function, and itself have the sterilizing ability of the oxygenant listed above Table I.Airflow is exposed to is particularly conducive to formation nitrogen ion in high-octane ultraviolet ray and the high-intensity magnetic field, most preferred embodiment as the plasma source among the U.S. Patent application No.08/326339 and 08/627227 (applying date 1996.4, attorney docket No.DJ-11) is described.
Therefore, from analytical table I as can be seen, each is all much effective than the chlorine of common use for the added sterilization oxygenant of the present invention.The used various oxygenants of the present invention synthetically provide eliminating bacteria, virus and protozoacide ability very completely, prove already that it was very effective for these dangerous organisms of eliminating in the water system.
As mentioned above, sterilizing unit of the present invention can require the different compound of adding to handle a lot of different current with biological nature and to last effusive water purification according to the chemistry accurately of current to be processed with method.
