The Electrotate technology has been developed in collaboration with the CNRS to meet these new challenges. The objectives of this process are to reduce energy consumption and the use of chemical products in advanced oxidation processes, to treat or recycle industrial effluents at lower cost, and to extend the efficiency spectrum of advanced oxidation to refractory molecules such as PFOS, metals and microplastics. Electrotate targets all sectors of industry facing effluent treatment/recycling problems, with the ambition of combining cost improvement with a smaller environmental footprint.

This technology takes account of industrial constraints such as

• the compacity of equipment
• the variable quantity and quality of their effluent.

It adapts to the quality of the effluent, since it can combine

• electrocoagulation (particle removal) and
• electro-oxidation (destruction of dissolved pollutants).

Its operation is based on rotating electrodes in which a voltage adapted to the pollution of the effluent is applied.

Electrotate technology represents a technological breakthrough in the effluent treatment and recycling sector. This innovation is currently being developed and will soon be available to manufacturers.
