A water treatment system includes a reservoir for holding water to be treated, one or more primary electrode pairs at least partially immersed in water held in the reservoir, a power supply adapted to power the one or more primary electrode pairs, and an agitator operable to cause movement in the water and particles and gases therein. Water is treated in the system by performing at least a first electrolysis phase wherein one or more of the primary electrode pairs are powered using electrical current of a first polarity such that for each powered primary electrode pair one electrode provides dissolved ions which act as an attractant for impurities to aid removal of the impurities from the water. The agitator can be operated during the first electrolysis phase to cause movement in the water and particles and gases therein to aid carriage of ions and impurities away from the electrodes. |
