Method for producing a mixed oxidant gas

摘要

The invention relates to a method for generating a mixed oxidant gas for treating bodies of water by maintaining an anolyte within a specific gravity range comprising the steps of: circulating the anolyte having a first specific gravity to an anode chamber of an electrolytic cell from an anolyte reservoir external from the anode chamber; circulating the anolyte having the first specific gravity through the anode chamber; circulating the anolyte now having a second specific gravity from the anode chamber to the anolyte reservoir, wherein the first specific gravity is greater than the second specific gravity; and circulating an anolyte having a third specific gravity to the anolyte reservoir from an anolyte make-up tank external from both the anolyte reservoir and anode chamber, wherein the third specific gravity is greater than the first specific gravity. <IMAGE>
