<p>In the field of fluid treatment, there is a need for a more flexible electrocoagulation unit and a fluid treatment apparatus that is readily configurable to deal efficiently with differently contaminated fluids. An electrocoagulation unit (210), for removing contaminants from a fluid, comprises an electrode chamber, which in use has a top and a bottom. The chamber also has a fluid inlet (14) at or towards its bottom, and is in fluid communication with at least one discharge conduit towards its top to direct fluid from the chamber towards a fluid outlet. The electrocoagulation unit also comprises an electrode module (234) which is removable through the top of the electrode chamber and includes at least one support body that supports a plurality of electrodes (38, 42). The electrode chamber and the electrode module co-operate with one another to restrict the flow of contaminated fluid to regions within the electrode chamber adjacent to active surfaces of the electrodes. A fluid treatment apparatus, for removing contaminants from a fluid, comprises at least one electrocoagulation unit as described above and a separation unit. The electrocoagulation unit and the separation unit are fluidly connected in series.</p> |
