What is Electrochemical Oxidation for Defouling? Electrochemical oxidation defouling includes the production of chemicals (oxidants) at the electrode surface, such as hydrogen peroxide at the cathode, which is an effective biocide and reactive oxygen species at the anode (O2, O2-, O3, OH radicals). Defouling of inorganic scaling can be achieved when the potential is applied without pressure to increase cross flow velocity and shear removal efficiency of scaling. The majority of electrochemical defouling methods using intermediates

Why Electro Chlorination is the Preferred Method for Power Plant Biofouling Control? Many power plants are built near coastal areas since they can use seawater as a coolant. However, these plants frequently encounter the problem of biofouling or biofilm formation in their inlet pipes and cooling systems. Biofouling is defined as the attachment of micro-/macroorganisms to the inner surface of pipes and the subsequent growth of the organisms. It is caused by a variety of organisms ranging from microorganisms (bacteria, algae) to macr

Cathodic Protection is a Method Used to Control Corrosion What is cathodic protection meaning for? Generally, Cathodic Protection (CP) is an electrochemical (half electrical and half chemical) method used to control corrosion of buried or submerged metallic structures. Cathodic Protection is a method used to control corrosion. It prevents corrosion by making the protected structure a cathode by installing a more anodic metal (sacrificial or galvanic) anode or a metallic (impressed current) anode connected to a Direct Current (

Why Dimensionally Stable Anodes(DSAs) Are Used for Zinc Electrowinning? Zinc electrowinning is one of the basic processes of the electrochemical industry. Lead-silver anodes have been used in zinc production for years. Although these electrodes have the lowest current efficiency for zinc deposition and higher electrical energy consumption when compared to pure lead anodes, they are widely used because of their high corrosion stability in acid (H2SO4) solution and because of the higher purity of the zinc cathodic deposits.
