In the geothermal hot water scale removal device configured in this way, it is possible to precipitate and remove impurities that cause scale and are contained in the geothermal hot water that is supplied from the geothermal well to the geothermal hot water utilization facility. can. This is done by applying a DC voltage from a battery 7 to both electrodes 6a, 6b to flow a current into geothermal hot water 3, and using this geothermal hot water 3 as an electrolyte solution to both electrodes 6a, 6b.
This is because it can cause a chemical reaction, in other words, electrolysis. That is, the anode 6a
On the side, an oxidation reaction that increases the ionic valence occurs at the cathode 6b.
On the side, a reduction reaction occurs in which the ion valence decreases, and the cations are dissociated and dispersed in the solution, and metal ions that cause scale, such as calcium Ca 2+ and potassium K + , are reduced and deposited on the cathode 6b. Here, the geothermal hot water 3 can be flowed from the bottom of the storage tank 1 toward the electrode 6 and upward diagonally across the storage tank 1, so the geothermal hot water 3
By increasing the time that the geothermal hot water remains near the electrode, impurities in the geothermal hot water 3 can be effectively deposited on the cathode 6b. That is, this is because the electrolysis time can be increased.

In this case, it is known that when the current density is high, soft crystals are deposited on the cathode 6b, and when the current density is low, hard crystals are deposited. The soft crystals naturally peel off from the cathode 6b and settle at the bottom of the storage tank 1, so by opening the discharge valve 5, the precipitated crystals 9 can be discharged to the outside of the storage tank 1. The hard crystals are vibrated with a vibrator to cause them to fall due to mechanical shock, and are discharged from the discharge valve 5 in the same way as the soft crystals. Therefore, the surface of the cathode 6b is prevented from being covered with impurities, and the cathode 6b and the geothermal hot water 3 are prevented from being covered with impurities.
Impurities can be precipitated over a long period of time by preventing the contact area from becoming small. Incidentally, extremely hard crystals that cannot be removed by a vibrator can be removed by periodically pulling the cathode 6b out of the storage tank 1.

Also in the geothermal hot water scale removal apparatus configured in this manner, the geothermal hot water 3 can be electrolyzed as an electrolyte solution to precipitate impurities that cause scale. Also, the current density is low,
Even if the crystals 11 deposited on the needle-like electrode 10 are hard crystals that do not peel off, the needle-like electrode 10 gradually becomes smaller and is formed in a shape that can be easily removed in the direction of the tip, so that it can be vibrated by the vibrator.

As explained above, according to the present invention, the inflow side pipe is opened near the bottom of one side of the storage tank, the outflow side pipe is opened near the top of the other side, and
An anode and a cathode are placed between the inflow and outflow pipes, and a vibrator that vibrates the cathode is installed, so geothermal hot water is directed from the bottom of the storage tank toward the electrodes and stored. The impurities in the geothermal hot water can be effectively precipitated because the water flows upward diagonally across the tank and stays near the electrodes for a longer time. Furthermore, since the impurities deposited on the cathode can be dropped by the vibrator, the effect of removing impurities can be maintained.
