Abstract
A method for treating water with an electrolytic cell including an anode, a cathode, and a three-dimensional carbon electrode provided between the anode and the cathode, the method comprising the steps of supplying the water having an electric resistivity of not less than 10 M.OMEGA..multidot.cm into the electrolytic cell; applying an electric current to the anode and the cathode so as to polarize the electrodes for sterilizing the water, wherein a first distance between the electrode and the anode and a second distance between the electrode and the cathode are not more than 1.0 mm.
