    Sodium hypochlorite production unit

    Product Review:

    Sodium hypochlorite is a strong oxidizing agent and a sanitizing agent produced by electrolysis of widely available and low cost industrial salt or seawater in a diaphragm-free process. This unit adds and utilizes simultaneously sodium hypochlorite generated in production process to ensure freshness and high activity of sodium hypochlorite. Compared to chlorine and chlorine-containing compounds, sodium hypochlorite contains similar oxidizing and sanitizing properties. This unit is mainly used to treat wastewater containing bacteria in hospitals, wastewater containing cyanide in galvanizing processes, and can also be used to sanitize swimming pools, drinking water, domestic wastewater, and to sterilize dishes and cutlery in food processing, medical facilities, catering facilities and canteens.

    Product Advantages

    We handle the full engineering and system design cycle, tailoring the system’s performance to your specific needs. Highly accurate control of current parameters and salt concentration guarantees a stable active chlorine output. Our technological solutions allow for fully automated disinfection, providing a legal and technical guarantee of compliance with water treatment sanitary standards.

    FAQ

    What are the advantages of producing sodium hypochlorite using electrolysis on-site?

    The main advantage is eliminating the need to purchase and store hazardous concentrated chlorine. The ASMEX PETROCHEM unit produces the antiseptic from ordinary table salt and water immediately before use. This eliminates the risks of transporting toxic substances and significantly simplifies logistics for water utilities and industrial enterprises in Uzbekistan.

    How durable are the electrodes in the highly mineralized water conditions in our region?

    We use titanium anodes with a multilayer ruthenium-iridium coating, which are resistant to electrochemical corrosion. The cell design allows for easy cleaning of hardness salts, which is critical for stable operation in Tashkent and other regions of the country. Proper maintenance allows the electrolysis unit to operate for many years without replacing expensive components.

    What is the cost of the finished solution compared to imported reagents?

    With in-house production, costs are limited to electricity and industrial salt. On average, the cost of active chlorine is 2-3 times lower than purchasing commercial hypochlorite. Automation of the process minimizes personnel involvement, further reducing operating costs and eliminating human error during dosing.
