Ion exchange cell for continuous electrochemical treatment with two modified ion exchange electrodes separated by an ion exchange membrane useful for removal of ions from aqueous and organic solutions, and especially for water softening

摘要

Ion exchange cell for continuous electrochemical water treatment with at least two modified ion exchange electrodes separated by an ion exchange membrane, which can be regenerated by altering the polarization is new. An Independent claim is included for a process for treating water (water softening) in which the cell is electrochemically conditioned, brought into contact with an ion containing solution, and finally the ion laden membrane (sic) is regenerated by application of a counter-voltage.
