ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for water purification, wherein ions are released from electrodes during electrolysis and combine with impurities to form a floc which, in turn, absorbs other impurities. A moving bed of solid, non-conductive particles surrounding the electrodes is also provided to insure self-cleaning of the electrodes. The apparatus for carrying out the process comprises an electrolysis chamber containing a moving bed of solid particles surrounding the electrodes, an inlet conduit for contaminated water at one end of the chamber, and a conically extending flocculation basin at the opposite end of the chamber. The invention simplifies water purification processes and apparatus.
