Abstract
An electrocoagulation (EC) unit that performs an electrocoagulation process on wastewater or the like. In one embodiment, the EC unit includes a reaction tank formed from a non-conductive material, charge plates within the reaction tank that are spaced at a distance, intermediate plates disposed within the reaction tank between the charge plates, and plate conductors configured to electrically couple the charge plates to a power source. The bottom of the reaction tank tapers toward one or more ports which act as an ingress and egress point for the EC unit.
