Method and apparatus for purification treatment of water

A method for purifying water wherein a chamber is partitioned into an anode section and a cathode section by a diaphragm, a voltage is applied between the anode and the cathode while an oxygen-containing gas is supplied to said cathode section so as to generate a hypohaloric acid and hydrogen peroxide in said anode section and said cathode section, respectively, and the water to be treated which has been supplied to said anode section so as to be contacted with the hypohaloric acid is mixed with the water to be treated which has been supplied to said cathode section to be contacted with the hydrogen peroxide.
