| Primary Mechanism | Standard electrocoagulation chemistry is packaged into a transportable format where sacrificial iron or aluminum electrodes receive DC current to generate coagulant flocs in situ. Automated PLCs and app-based monitoring manage the process, while integrated flotation or settling chambers separate the flocs from treated water. |
