<p>An apparatus (100, 300, 370, 380, 400, 500, 600) and method are provided for producing an electrochemically-activated liquid (20, 22, 44, 45, 51, 52, 71, 160, 190, 192). The apparatus includes a mobile body (102, 306, 381) configured to travel over a surface (125, 302), a source (14, 70, 106, 502, 602) of a liquid, a liquid dispenser (194, 310, 352, 354, 362, 371, 406, 506, 606) and a flow path (16, 17, 18, 59, 70, 71, 160, 160A, 160B) from the liquid source to the liquid dispenser. A functional generator (10, 40, 162, 324, 504, 604) is coupled in the flow path, which comprises an anode chamber (24) and a cathode chamber (26) separated by an ion exchange membrane (27, 43) and which electrochemically activates the liquid from the liquid source which is passed through the functional generator (10, 40, 162, 324, 504, 604).</p> |
