Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate characteristics of formation of mixed oxidants and some aspects of the performance of electrochemical process as an alternative disinfection strategy for water purification. The study of electrochemical process has shown free chlorine to be produced, but smaller amounts of stronger oxidants, such as ozone, hydrogen peroxide and OH radicals, were also generated. The formation of ozone and hydrogen peroxide increased with increasing electric conductivity, but was limited at conductivities greater than 0.6 mS/cm. Also, formation of OH radical was enhanced as electric conductivity was increased to 0.9 mS/cm and The stead-state concentrations of OH radical were calculated at $1.1{\sim}6.4{\times}10^{-14}M$. Using E. coti, inactivation kinetic studies were performed. With the exception of free chlorine, the role of mixed oxidants, especially OH radical, was investigated for enhancement of the inactivation rate.
