De Nora Sanilec - Seawater Electrochlorination for Biofouling Control

SANILEC systems generate sodium hypochlorite from seawater using an extensively field-proven electrochemical process. SANILEC systems are the standard and preferred electrochlorination system for biofouling control in offshore and marine biofouling control as well as power and coastal applications. SANILEC systems range in capacity from 2.8 to 47,620 lb/day (1.2 to 21,600 kg/day), per train.
