EC SYSTEM
The Stormwater Management Electrocoagulation System (EC System) is a highly effective technology for removal of emulsified oils, TPH, suspended solids, and heavy metals from industrial wastewater and wash water resulting in clean water for reuse or discharge. Using a unique process of passing a controlled electrical current through industrial wastewater to aid in the removal of contaminants (electrocoagulation), the EC System represents a major advancement in water treatment technology, as only one system is required to remove contaminants under a range of influent concentrations and compositions. The EC System complements the Stormwater Management StormFilter by generating consistent, high-quality effluent from higher-strength wastewater and, in many instances, does not require the use of chemicals. Packaged with on-board automation, the EC System is fully automatic, reducing maintenance by up to 95%. Most importantly, the system provides economical onsite treatment of complex waste streams.

EC SYSTEM CELL OPERATION Pollutant removal in the EC System process begins when contaminated water is exposed to electrocytic cells. As pigments and tannins. The clean water is then sent to a separation unit where any remaining floc is removed from the clean water.
water passes through these cells, it is exposed to a controlled electrical current and becomes charged. Once charged, the suspended contaminant particles bond together like small magnets and form larger masses. Any masses comprised of coagulated material are quickly

removed, while masses comprised of heavy solids settle to the bottom. What is left is a clear phase of water with less contaminants. This process is effective on any size of

suspended solids including sub-micron particles such as FEATURES The EC System process is highly effective on complex industrial waste water. It is a programmed technology, so no periodic maintenance is required. Any wetting agents (soaps, detergents) will remain in the water for reuse. It is effective on suspended solids (of any micron size), emulsified/suspended petroleum and heavy metals.
It is an excellent technology for recycled water applications, as suspended solids are removed from the water rather than passed through and allowed to build up in the clean (reuse) water tank. It may be installed alone for wastewater applications or in combination with the StormGate and StormFilter for commingled stormwater and wastewater applications.

The EC System represents a major advancement in water treatment technology. The robust treatment allows one system to remove contaminants under a range of influent compositions. The EC System complements the Stormwater Management StormFilter by generating consistent high quality effluent on higher strength wastewater without the use of chemicals. Packaged with on-board automation, the EC System is fully automatic, reducing maintenance by up to 95%. Most importantly, the system provides economical onsite treatment of complex waste streams. Benefits of EC System: Meets discharge requirements Ability to recycle water for reuse (zero discharge) Minimal operator attention Low maintenance (self-cleaning plates) Reduces sludge volume No chemicals required (other than pH control) Ability to process multiple contaminants Low operating cost Quick return on investment Reduces cradle-to-grave liabilities

Applications:
The EC System is highly effective on complex industrial waste water. It is a programmed technology, so no periodic maintenance is required. Any wetting agents (soaps, detergents) will remain in the water for reuse. It is an excellent technology for recycled water applications, as the suspended solids are removed from the water rather than passed through and allowed to build up in the clean (reuse) water tank. Its recommended placement is after the StormFilter or oil/water separator. It is effective on suspended solids (of any micron size), emulsified/suspended petroleum and heavy metals. It is recommended that a StormFilter or StormGate Separator be installed upstream of the EC System to remove the free oil.
