A METHOD AND A REACTOR FOR ELECTROCHEMICAL CONVERSION OF A MATERIAL E.G. SOOT PARTICLES BEING INSOLUBLE IN A FLUID

摘要

A method and a reactor for electrochemical conversion of a material (21) being insoluble in a fluid into a material being soluble in the fluid, which method comprises that a flow of the fluid is passed to a reaction zone which comprises an internal circuit consisting of: one or more working electrodes (12), one or more counter-electrodes (13), and one or more ion-selective electrolytes (11), and which internal circuit is applied with an electrical voltage difference sufficient for the electrochemical processes; and use thereof for removal of soot particles from flue gasses and removal of oil in waste water.
