COMBINED ULTRA-HIGH FREQUENCY UNIT FOR IN-STREAM WATER PURIFICATION.

Abstract

An engineering solution proposes to merge an ultra-high frequency energy unit and an electrolyzer The broad wall of a rectangular waveguide is one of electrolyzer electrodes and has holes for liquid. Another electrode is located outside the waveguide under the waveguide holes. The teflon sterilization chamber inside the waveguide has the form of a volumetric component that covers part of the broad wall and transforms to a lateral at a 30-45⁰ angle to the waveguide wall. The idea of this design is to reduce decontamination temperature for liquids containing spore-forming microorganisms below 100 ⁰C at normal pressure, and to retain the nutritional properties of liquids.
