 Sea Water Electrolysis Sodium Hypochlorite Generator for Cooling Tower

Working Principle

Sea Water Electrolysis Sodium Hypochlorite Generator for Cooling Tower is generating sodium hypochlorite through the electrolysis of seawater is a cost-effective and safe method to eliminate algae and microorganisms and prevent the biofouling. Sodium hypochlorite is a versatile oxidizing agent that can be generated and used on-site.

 

• Basic reactions occurring in the electrolytic cell:

At the anode, chlorine gas is evolved:

2Cl- = Cl2 + 2e- _________________ ①

At the cathode, hydrogen gas is evolved:

2H+ + 2e- = H2 __________________ ②

 

The Cl2 evolved at the anode dissolves in the electrolyte to form HCl and HOCl. Since there is no membrane between the anode and the cathode, the H2 evolved at the cathode and generates OH-, which combines with the H+ produced by dissociation to form H2O and NaOCl, thus completing the homogeneous secondary chemical reaction. The overall reaction is:

NaCl + H2O → NaOCl + H2

 


 

 

  Industrial Biofouling Control

Purevita seawater electrochlorination systems are a reliable and economic solution for industrial biofouling control. The electrochlorination process is simple and straight forward, combining three common consumables (salt(sea water), water and electricity) to generate a disinfecting agent. SANILEC systems can be provided in any capacity to meet customer and application-specific needs. 

 

On-site generation of sodium hypochlorite is an economical and safe method to produce a powerful biocide and disinfecting agent for use in industrial applications. When injected into the cooling water circuits of electric power stations or industrial plants, on-site generated sodium hypochlorite provides efficient protection to the equipment against the growth of micro and macro organic fouling. This occurs without the undesirable side effects of commercial hypochlorite, such as the build-up of hard deposits by reaction of excess alkalinity with the substances dissolved in water or the safety hazard connected with the transportation, storage and handling of chlorine gas. The technology eliminates dependency on outside suppliers and the heavy costs of purchased commercial products.

Application

  • #
    Power Plant
    Industrial facilities located on coastlines—including thermal power plants (utilizing fossil fuels or nuclear energy) and Oil & Gas/Petrochemical installations—frequently rely on seawater as a coolant. Sodium hypochlorite, generated by electrochlorinating seawater, is commonly dosed into the cooling water intake structure and basin to inhibit biological growth and fouling, thereby preserving high operational efficiency
  • #
    Sea water Aquaculture
    Sea water aquaculture requires disinfection of seawater by adding chlorine, and obtaining sodium hypochlorite through electrolysis of seawater can greatly reduce the purchase cost of chemicals
  • #
    LNG Terminals
    The primary mode of transporting Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is via specialized tankers. The liquefaction process, a critical pre-loading step, utilizes chlorinated seawater as the cooling medium to reduce natural gas to its liquid state. Conversely, upon unloading at the receiving terminal, chlorinated seawater is repurposed in the regasification process, where it serves as the heating medium to convert LNG back into its gaseous form for distribution. This closed-loop utilization of chlorinated seawater exemplifies the industry's commitment to efficient resource management throughout the LNG supply chain.
  • #
    Sea Water Desalination
    In a typical desalination plant, sodium hypochlorite—generated directly from seawater—is injected into the intake structure to against organic fouling, effectively protect the equipment from biological growth and operational disruptions. Post-desalination, a secondary application of brine-derived sodium hypochlorite ensures precise control of chlorine residuals in the treated water. To maintain these residuals throughout the distribution network, supplementary brine-based electrochlorination systems are integrated at each pumping station, enabling consistent chlorine levels as drinking water traverses the extensive pipeline infrastructure.
