Underground water treatment by electroactivation method

Iryna Kozoriz, Hennadiy Stolyarenko, Bohdan Tupitskiy

Abstract

The quality of water resources gets worse every year, that's why the water resources treatment is an actual issue and a priority direction almost of all European countries. Humans use widely both surface and underground water for their needs. Previously, underground water was considered to be the purest one, but now, as a result of economic activities, it is also the subject of contamination and needs pre-treatment before consumption. The article discusses methods of underground water treatment, their advantages and disadvantages. The research of the efficiency of underground water treatment by electroactivation method has been performed as well as determination of dependence of electrochemical effect parameters on the groundwater. Graphic dependencies of the groundwater treatment rate of various options (the distance between electrodes, voltage, current, time, volume of anolyte during the process of electroactivation) were received/ The analysis of these dependencies was performed and conclusions about using electrochemical activation process for groundwater treatment in the industry were made
