Abstract
In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a water treatment system for sterilizing water retained in a water container. The system includes a circulation process line for pumping the to-be-sterilized water out of the water container, sterilizing the water through electrolysis, and feeding the sterilized water back into the water container; an arrangement for producing a sterilizing solution having a sterilizing function by electrolyzing an electrolytic solution containing chlorine ions and having a function of promoting an electrochemical reaction; and an arrangement for supplying the produced sterilizing solution into the circulation process line as required. The system can constantly sterilize the water in the circulation process line and, as required, additionally supply the sterilizing solution produced by the sterilizing solution producing arrangement into the circulation process line according to a variation in the quality of the water.
