The present invention relates to a method of cleaning electrolytic cells that includes: (a) directing a base solution comprising water into an array of electrolytic cells; and (b) removing contaminants from at least one of the electrolytic cells with air turbulence provided by an injection of compressed air into the electrolytic cell. The injection of compressed air is provided by an air sparging system in fluid communication with an inlet portion of the at least one electrolytic cell. A self-cleaning electrolytic cell system is further included.

Self-cleaning system and method of cleaning electrolytic cells

An electrolytic cell includes: a cartridge assembly including: a plurality of bipolar electrode plates spaced apart and guide members formed on both sides of the plurality of bipolar electrode plates; a cell body having: a first side; a second side opposite the first side; an opening that extends through the first and second sides to form a housing that receives the cartridge assembly; a first end having an inlet that allows liquid to enter the housing of the cell body and a second end having an outlet that allows liquid to exit the housing of the cell body; a first terminal cap that connects to the first side of the cell body and which has a cathode plate; and a second terminal cap that connects to the second side of the cell body and which has an anode plate.

Electrolytic cells and water treatment systems containing the same

A method of automatically controlling chloramine concentration in a body of water contained in a reservoir includes: (a) determining residual chloramine concentration in a water sample; (b) automatically engaging a supply of chlorine to add chlorine when (i) the residual chloramine concentration in the water sample is determined to be below a predetermined residual chloramine concentration set-point or (ii) below a chloramine concentration percentage of a predetermined residual chloramine concentration set-point; (c) determining residual chloramine concentration in one or more additional water samples after step (b); (d) determining the rate of change in chloramine concentration; and (e) if the rate of change in chloramine concentration is below a set rate of change in chloramine concentration (i) automatically engaging a supply of ammonia and the supply of chlorine to add both ammonia and chlorine to the body of water, or (ii) stopping the supply of chlorine after step (d).
