Executive in Action - Peter Tsantrizos
Interview with our President and CEO, Dr. Peter Tsantrizos, for the Maritime Executive publication and website. Covering his expertise in the waste to energy industry and discussing the technologies at Terragon. Dr. Tsantrizos founded Terragon Environmental Technologies in 2004 with the vision of enabling the "zero waste discharge" habitat. With this in mind he began developing the Micro Auto ...

Synergistic electric field enhancement of the effectiveness of chlorine species formed during electrochemical disinfection of drinking water
In line in situ electrochemical disinfection of drinking water with chloride concentrations as low as 10 mg/L has been demonstrated at practical flow rates of at least 3 m3/day using a novel perforated electrode flow through (PEFT) cell with a 50 μm inter-electrode gap. Sufficient chlorine to achieve 6 log inactivation of Escherichia coli bacteria was produced at applied voltages as low ...

Electrochemically activated water as an alternative to chlorine for decentralized disinfection
Electrochemically activated (ECA) water is being extensively studied and considered as an alternative to chlorine for disinfection. Some researchers claim that ECA is by and large a chlorine solution, while others claim the presence of reactive oxygen species such as ozone and hydroxyl radicals in addition to chlorine. This study compares sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and ECA in terms of ...

Pilot-scale electrochemical disinfection of surface water: assessing disinfection by-product and free chlorine formation
Electrochemical disinfection of surface water using mixed metal oxide anodes was evaluated in a pilot-scale demonstration. Disinfection rates, chlorine generation, energy demand, and generation of disinfection by-products were monitored over the 190-day study. Particular attention was given to the generation of trihalomethanes (THMs) and haloacetic acids (HAAs) during the electrochemical ...

Thrifty Ice Cream Case Study
Thrifty Ice Cream has been known and well-loved in the West coast for their cylinder-shaped scoops and unique flavors. They have made the traditional California dessert a sure hit to people from all ages with their one-of-a-kind flavors like Chocolate Malted Krunch. They are sold in all Rite Aid stores in California, and are also available to residents and guests around the west ...

Electrochemical inactivation of
Bacillus spores in drinking water using a quaternary oxide electrodeBacillus spores are resistant to disinfection methods and they represent a potential threat that requires improved methods to ensure water safety. Bacillus thuringiensis (BT) and B. anthracis Sterne (BA) spores were used to investigate the effectiveness of the electrochemical (EC) disinfection process. We tested the quaternary metal oxide (TiO2–Sb2O5–SnO2–RuO2) as the anode material in an EC cell ...

Clarification of algae-laden water using electrochemical processes
Algae contamination of surface water and drinking water supplies is a significant problem particularly in rural areas. A decentralized inexpensive technology that would effectively remove algae from water would be beneficial. Electrocoagulation (EC) combined with electroflotation (EF) as a single process (ECF) is a promising algae harvesting technique with no moving parts that may be powered ...

Development of point-of-use water disinfection technology using ceramic water filter and electrochemical hybrid system
The efficiency of water disinfection using a ceramic water filter and electrochemical hybrid system was investigated. Escherichia coli O157:H7 was effectively inactivated even when a storage battery, charged using a solar panel device, was used for the electrolysis process. During electrolysis, the rate of microbial inactivation was higher at higher initial Cl− concentrations. This was ...

Electrogeneration of aluminium to remove silica in water
This paper presents the results of a study on electrogeneration of aluminium, as a coagulant to remove silica in make-up water for cooling towers. Three electrochemical systems were tested, two with aluminium electrodes (one with polarity change and another without it), and a third one with aluminium anodes and cathodes of stainless steel. From the obtained results it was concluded that under the ...
