Abstract
A water treatment system is provided. The system includes a container holding a reactant liquid within the container. The system further includes an electrode capsule removably retained within the container and submerged in the reactant liquid. The electrode capsule operates to generate reactant gas by operating within the reactant liquid. The system includes a cap releasably coupled to an opening of the container. The cap includes a nozzle that allows flow of reactant gas out of the container to treat an amount of water.
Claims8
A water treatment system, comprising:
- a container having an opening, the container comprising a reactant liquid within the container;
- an electrode capsule removably retained within the container and submerged in the reactant liquid, the electrode capsule comprising:
- a housing having a housing body, an inner volume within the housing body and a plurality of holes in the housing body that extend from an outer surface of the housing body to within the inner volume;
- a first electrode and a second electrode having a space between them, wherein a first flat face of the first electrode is facing and spaced apart from a second flat face of the second electrode, wherein the first electrode and the second electrode are retained within the housing, wherein the plurality of holes in the housing allow the reactant liquid to fill voids within the housing and the first and second electrodes operate within the reactant liquid to form a reactant gas that escapes the housing through the plurality of holes and into the container;
- a cap releasably coupled to the opening of the container, the cap comprising a nozzle, wherein the cap and the housing are configured to allow an electrical connection to be coupled to the first and second electrodes of the electrode capsule and the nozzle allows flow of the reactant gas out of the container to treat a portion of water from a water source;
- and
- the electrical connection comprising a first wire and a second wire, wherein the electrical connection extends into the container, and through the cap of the electrode capsule, and wherein the first wire coupled to the first electrode and the second wire extends through an aperture in the first electrode and coupled to the second electrode to hold the first and second electrodes in a vertical stacked configuration, the electrical connection supporting the electrode capsule within the reactant liquid within the container.
