Abstract
A method and apparatus for the shearing and dispersion of an active flocculent that is discharged from an electrolytic reactor into a larger volume or flow of water are disclosed. The device is submerged in a natural body of water, tank, etc. and is connected to the reactor via a fluid conduit such that the effluent is discharged under pressure through the device into the body of water. The accelerator device uses available pressure to shear the active flocculent into smaller size particles by impingement and to mix the reactor discharge into a larger volume or flow of water by entrainment. The apparatus uses the available pressure present in the reactor discharge and therefore is recovering waste energy from the available hydraulic power for operation. The submerged accelerator device may also include charged electrode plates to provide additional treatment and/or a motor driven turbine pump to allow the device to operate detached from the reactor as a stand-alone, submersible system that may be operated via alternative energy sources including solar, wind and hydro power. An in-line device is also described.
