<p>A water treating method capable of drastically improving the effect of eliminating germs in food, drink, or waste water. The method comprises: a first treating step of immersing a pair of electrodes and a conductor capable collecting at least germs in a flow of water to be treated, applying a positive potential to the conductor and applying a negative potential to the electrodes so that the germs may be adsorbed by the conductor, a second treating step of stopping the flow of the treated water after the first treating step, and raising the potentials applied to the conductor and the electrodes in the presence of the treated water, while the polarities of the potentials applied to the conductor and the electrodes are kept, to electrolyze the treated water, and a third treating step of stopping the application of the potential to the conductor after the second treating step, and applying a positive potential to one of the paired electrodes in the presence of the treated water and a negative potential to the other electrode.</p> |
