the contact times of the medium at the cathode and anode were extended and the downstream system components for removing suspended particles were removed without replacement. In the completely re-dimensioned membrane electrolysis cell, the short circuit is made via a ceramic membrane and is distributed 1:1 between the sodium and chloride ions. With small amounts of sodium chloride, an anodic solution with a high redox potential is produced with a weak current flow and membrane electrolysis cells connected in series, which remains effective for up to two years.

As a result of the low current density, the material removal on the catalytic surfaces of the anodes is low, the formation of unwanted by-products is largely suppressed and the removal of hydrogen can be omitted for many applications.

For the ECALIT-process, at least one drinking water quality must be used that complies with the EU Drinking Water Directive.
