| Abstract: | Discharge of marine species into foreign environments through the ballast water of ships brought large quantities of environmental and economic losses to the world’s coastal regions. Based on ion-exchange membrane electrolysis, a new method coupled system design consisting of ion-exchange membrane electolyzer, electrolytic anode and electrolytic cathode is proposed. Products of the electrolytic anode are used for the ballast water treatment. Optimal parameters including current density, cell voltage and current efficiency were theoretically obtained. Experimental validation also was carried out. Six algae species including Chlorella vulgaris, Nitzschia closterium f.minutissima, Platymonas subcordiformis, Dunaliella salina, Isochrysis galbana and Prorocentrum micans were performed by this system under the optimal conditions. The proposed approach had the more efficient kill ability for the algae life. |
