A method for preparing a solution including monochloramine includes the steps of: a) in an electrolyzer including an anode area and a cathode area separated by a membrane limiting the migration of hypochlorite ions, forming hypochlorite ions in the anode area by means of the oxidation of chloride ions in an aqueous solution, and forming ammonium ions in the cathode area by means of the reduction of nitrate and/or nitrite ions in an aqueous solution; and b) reacting the ammonium ions with at least one portion of the hypochlorite ions, with a molar ratio of hypochlorite ions to ammonium ions no lower than 1, resulting in the formation of monochloramine. |
