Electrochemical cell for removing contaminants from a wastewater stream

Abstract

An electrochemical cell for use within a system and process for removing contaminants from water and wastewater, where the water or wastewater is transported through several stations for purification and is ultimately transformed into purified water that can be safely discharged to the environment. The electrochemical cell includes a housing, a removable cartridge and oppositely charged electrical headers, the removable cartridge having conductive plates that are in electrical communication with the electrical headers, such that successive conductive plates are oppositely charged.
