Capco Water Solutions’ electrochlorinator generates sodium hypochlorite on-site through electrolysis of brine or seawater, eliminating the need for chlorine gas handling. The process passes electric current through saltwater to produce sodium hypochlorite, hydrogen gas, and hypochlorous acid. This ensures safe, reliable, and cost-effective water disinfection for municipal, industrial, and marine applications with minimal maintenance and continuous chlorine supply.
