Use of CaCl2-Enhanced Electrolysis Reaction for the Inactivation and Dehydration of Cyanobacteria Blooms

Abstract

AbstractIt is urgent to solve the problems of large use of coagulants and poor dehydration effects while treating cyanobacteria-laden water. A CaCl2-enhanced electrolytic reaction that added CaCl2 electrolyte was conducted to investigate the inactivation and dewatering ...Practical ApplicationsIn this study, the CaCl2 electrolyte was added during the electrolysis process to inactivate cyanobacteria blooms. It was inferred that the electrolyte generates chlorine-containing free radicals and calcium hydroxide flocculant during ...
