WaveIonics ElectroCoagulation

Electrocoagualtion is a broad-spectrum treatment technology that removes -

  • total suspended solids,

  • heavy metals,

  • emulsified oils,

  • bacteria, and

  • other contaminants from water.

How it Works

Water often carries invisible troublemakers—dissolved metals, oils, dyes, and other charged particles—that resist traditional treatment. Electrocoagulation solves this at the molecular level using controlled electrical currents.

Step 1 Dissolution

As water flows through the electrocoagulation cell, a metal electrode releases ions into the water.

These ions react with natural hydroxyl groups, creating tiny sites where contaminants can attach. At the same time, hydrogen bubbles form, helping lift pollutants.

Step 2 Coagulation

Free-flowing electrons destabilize the charges on suspended solids and emulsified oils.

This neutralization breaks the repulsion forces that normally keep contaminants floating in water.

Step 3 Flocculation

Once neutralized, particles clump into larger “flocs.”

These flocs capture heavy metals, oils, and other impurities, making them easy to separate in downstream processes.
