Before choosing electrochemical equipment, define the water, the comparator and the evidence that would change your mind.
Start with the feed, not the equipment
Industrial and municipal water vary widely. A representative sampling plan, target specification and operating envelope provide the basis for testing electro-oxidation, electrocoagulation or a customized treatment train. A pilot should answer a decision, not merely show that equipment turns on.
Measure the entire balance
Water quality is only one part of the picture. Recovery, residuals, energy per unit of treated water, electrode consumption, fouling and maintenance all affect the business case. Agree a credible baseline before the test begins.
Specify a real investment gate
A pilot charter should state who supplies data, how the trial is run, how results are reviewed and what outcome permits scale-up. Transparent limits make a strong technology case more useful.
Good water decisions are grounded in the feed, measurable outcomes and a workable path to operation.
