SOLAR-POWERED SINGLE-COMPARTMENT MULTI-PURPOSE ELECTROCHEMICAL REACTOR

摘要

A solar-powered single-compartment multi-purpose electrochemical reactor; which can be used for the desalination of sea water, removal of heavy metals from drinking water, treatment of waste water, producing wide range of chemicals, producing hydrogen gas by electrolyzing water; which is useful as a source of energy. The device uses solar cells that convert solar energy into electrical energy in order to power such system. The device comprises: solar panels, car batteries to store the electrical energy obtained from such solar panels in order to power such device, a source tank for holding the electrolyte, a container for storing such electrolyte to be then fed to the electrolyzer, a pump, a flow meter, an electrolyzer; wherein such electrolyzer comprises an inlet section, a working section, and an outlet section; and such electrolyzer is a single-compartment electrolyzer. The device also comprises a plurality of valves and pipes, and a flash distillation tank.
