れる。The water of the object to be dehydrated 4 is absorbed by the water absorbing body 2 via the water absorbing surface 2-1. First, impurities (dust and the like) in water are removed by the filter 2-2. Next, it is absorbed by the water-absorbing polymer 2-4 containing, for example, sodium polyacrylate, through the water diffusion layer 2-3 made of pulp having high liquid diffusivity.

Therefore, the moisture in the moisture diffusion layer 2-3 is decomposed by the moisture remover 3 at the interface between the anode-side porous thin-film electrode 3-1a and the moisture diffusion layer 2-3. That is, the moisture on the anode-side porous thin-film electrode 3-1a is Decomposes into hydrogen ions, oxygen and electrons.

くなることも確認されている。 Here, the reaction (3) starts to occur when the current is large to some extent. The oxygen in the reaction formula (2) is dissolved oxygen in air or water. Oxygen generated by the reaction formula (1) is generated on the anode-side porous thin-film electrode 3-1a and then released to the outside through the water absorber 2. Similarly, electrons generated in the reaction formula (1) are transferred from the anode side porous thin film electrode 3-1a to the lead wire 3-3
Through the DC power supply 3-4 to the porous thin-film electrode 3-2b on the cathode side. Then, the reaction formula (2) or (3)
The electrons required for the reaction are supplied. According to the experiment, when the current density on the cathode-side porous thin-film electrode 3-2b is kept at a constant value, for example, 15 mA / cm 2 or less in the present embodiment, a reaction formula for generating a dangerous H 2 gas is obtained. It has been confirmed that the reaction (3) does not occur. It has also been confirmed that the reaction of the reaction formula (3) hardly occurs even when oxygen is sufficiently supplied.

る。As described above, the water contained in the water diffusion layer 2-3 in the water absorber 2 is decomposed and removed by the water remover 3. Therefore, the moisture content of the moisture diffusion layer 2-3 decreases. Accordingly, the water absorbed by the water absorbing polymer 2-4 also moves into the water diffusion layer 2-3 and is decomposed and removed as described above. In this way, the water absorbing ability of the water-absorbing polymer 2-4, which is the driving force of the dewatering action of the dewatering sheet, is continuously regenerated by the electrolysis action of the water removing body 3.

It greatly improves the maintenance of a high water absorption (dehydration) rate.
