• The effect of process conditions on electro activated water character was evaluated.
• Brine concentration, reaction time and current were investigated parameters.
• The brine concentration was the most significant factor.
• Possible reaction pathways were evaluated on the cathode and anode side.
• The formation of Cl2, O2, H2, Cl−, OH−, H+ were determined by CV measurements.
The physicochemical properties of electro activated water (EAW) are highly affected by process conditions. In this context, the effects of parameters such as brine concentration, electrolysis time and current for EAW generation have been investigated using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The predictive model for each response had high accuracy relative to R2 values, namely, 0.85 for the oxidation reduction potential (ORP) and 0.94 for the free chlorine concentration (FCC). According to results, the brine concentration was the most significant factor that affected EAW character. Moreover, electrolysis time and brine concentration have synergetic effect on FCC. The mechanism of the EAW production was evaluated through the cyclic voltammogram (CV) of different brine concentrations on the graphite electrode. With the concentration increased anodic and cathodic peaks could be observed notably. Possible reaction pathways were evaluated on the cathode and anode sides. The formation of Cl2, O2, H2, Cl−, OH−, H+ were determined by CV measurements.
