THE MECHANISM OF THE DISINFECTION EFFICIENCY ENHANCEMENT IN THE ADSORPTION-ELECTROLYSIS PROCESS BY L ADSORBENT
L剂对提高吸附电解法灭菌率机理的研究

The adsorption-electrolysis system consists of a cylinder stuffed with adsorbent LS-1, a graphite electrode (anode) and an iron electrode (cathode). The system is used to treat a hospital effluent containing about one million (106) bacteria per liter. The disinfection efficiencies of the system are above 99%, 15-25% higher than when charcoal felt or granular activated carbon serves as the stuffing adsorbent. It is the physical structure and chemical composition of the adsorbent LS-1 that strengthens the synergysm between adsorption and electrolysis. The related factors affecting the synergism and their principles are discussed in the paper.
