Understanding Electrochlorination
The Evoqua CTE cell forms the core of the Chloropac® unit, utilizing C.T.E. technology for reliable electrochlorination. Developed by Electrocatalytic engineers, this technology efficiently converts sodium chloride into sodium hypochlorite, the active ingredient for anti-fouling. The concentric electrode design ensures uniform electrolyte flow, preventing calcareous deposits and optimizing system performance.
Enhanced Electrolytic Cell Assembly
The C.T.E. electrolytic cell assembly comprises two concentric titanium tubes through which saltwater (seawater) flows. By applying an electric current to the saltwater, Chloropac® converts sodium chloride into sodium hypochlorite, the active ingredient needed for anti-fouling.Advantages of Concentric Electrode Design
The development of the concentric electrode design resulted in a flow cell constructed of concentric cylindrical anode and cathode assemblies, one inside the other. This C.T.E. design effectively addresses deficiencies in previous plate or mesh designs. Electrolyte flow is horizontally forced in the annular space between the concentric cylinders. The flow of electrolyte is uniformly distributed from the inlet to the outlet connections, covering the concentric anode and cathode surfaces evenly. The absence of corners eliminates low flow/velocity areas where calcareous deposits of calcium and magnesium could precipitate on the electrodes or accumulate.Contact Us for More Information

Operational Benefits and Flexibility
The MARINE Mk4M system offers precise dosing, ranging from 0.2 to 0.5 ppm chlorine, ensuring stable performance under varying conditions, including temperature (10-30°C) and salinity (14-19g/l). Designed for flexibility, it seamlessly integrates with vessel-specific designs, using efficient Mk4M cells and the Power Supply Unit (PSU). Installation is straightforward, and an optional service exchange for the cells enables faster maintenance turnaround. Mk4M-SB Retro Kit
Additionally, existing Chloropac® electrolysers can be easily upgraded to Mk4M cells with a Retro-Fit Kit, extending the life of current equipment without significant capital expenditure. This retrofit replaces MK2M cells with Mk4M cells, which continue producing sodium hypochlorite (NaOCI) and hydrogen (H2) through seawater electrolysis. Sodium hypochlorite, a mild bleaching agent, effectively prevents marine growth, safeguarding seawater systems from fouling and equipment damage.
Installation and Support
The Retro-Fit Kits can be installed either by EWT technicians or qualified engineers provided by the operator. If there is any uncertainty regarding installation, operators can consult the EWT Spares and Service team for expert support.
The MARINE Mk4M system offers reliable, long-term protection against marine growth while reducing maintenance needs, providing a cost-effective solution for ship operators.

Typical Chloropac® System Shipboard Installation
The MGPS Mk2M Chloropac® sodium hypochlorite generating system prevents marine growth in seawater piping, heat exchangers, sea chests, and coolers. Ship owners and operators prefer the MGPS Mk2M system, with thousands of installations worldwide. Continuous low-level hypochlorination proves more effective than other marine growth prevention methods. Chloropac MGPS has earned trust in the marine market for over 40 years.
The MGPS Mk2M Process
A small amount of seawater, 5.7m³/hr (25 GPM), constantly pressurized, passes at high velocity through MGPS Mk2M electrolytic cells, converting part of the salt to sodium hypochlorite. This solution returns to the sea chest, mixing with incoming seawater. The cooling water now contains a trace residual sufficient to prevent marine organism growth, keeping all circuits—from intake to discharge—free from fouling. The system can interconnect with seawater circulating pumps to automatically adjust sodium hypochlorite output to suit on-board flow rates.
Comparison MGPS Mk2M to Other Methods
Effective Dosage |
||
|
The Chloropac electrochlorination system effectively controls both micro and macro fouling organisms by low continuous dose of 0.5 ppm or less. Additionally, it ensures efficient marine growth prevention
|
In contrast, copper ion-type systems claim a dose rate of 1 ppb suffices for all marine growth. However, a dose rate of ~20 ppb is actually needed to control macro fouling. Additionally, continuous dissolution of copper and aluminum does not effectively combat micro fouling. | |
Cell Longevity and Maintenance Costs |
||
| The Chloropac system uses platinum-on-titanium electrolytic cells (anodes) to produce sodium hypochlorite from seawater. These cells are warranted for five years, but typically last around seven years. | Conversely, copper-based systems use “sacrificial anodes” that dissolve quickly, requiring replacement every 12-24 months at a high cost. Therefore, ongoing consumable and maintenance costs are lower with the Chloropac system. | |
Control and Environmental Impact |
||
| Chloropac system controllers can be adjusted manually or automatically to regulate hypochlorite production based on demand, allowing for zero or near-zero residual overboard discharge. | On the other hand, copper anodes dissolve continuously, discharging copper overboard and adding heavy metal pollutants to the ocean. | |
Chemical Handling and Safety |
||
| The Chloropac system produces sodium hypochlorite using only ambient seawater, eliminating the need to store biocides or precursor chemicals on board. All produced sodium hypochlorite is directly injected into the sea chests, simplifying purchasing, storage, handling, and chemical logistics. | In contrast, chemical injection systems require the storage and handling of highly corrosive and toxic chemicals, creating additional storage and safety hazards on board. | |
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Chloropac system not only provides superior control but also offers lower maintenance costs and reduced environmental impact. Furthermore, it simplifies chemical handling compared to alternative methods of marine growth prevention.

Chloropac® System: Effective Marine Growth Prevention for Shipboard Installations
The Chloropac® MLF system (Range SB50 – SB200) is a proven solution for preventing marine growth in seawater piping, heat exchangers, sea chests, and coolers. Ship owners and operators worldwide prefer this system, with thousands of installations already in place. Continuous low-level hypochlorination has shown to be more effective than other marine growth prevention methods, offering over 40 years of reliable service in the marine industry.
How the Chloropac® MLF System Works
The process begins by diverting a small volume of seawater—about 2m³/hr (or 9 GPM)—from a pressurized seawater line. This water flows through electrolytic cells at high velocity, where a portion of the salt is converted into sodium hypochlorite. This solution is then directed back to the sea chest, where it mixes with incoming seawater.
As a result, the cooling water contains a trace level of sodium hypochlorite, enough to prevent marine organisms from attaching and growing in the system. This method ensures all circuits, from intake to discharge, remain free from fouling. Additionally, the system can automatically adjust the sodium hypochlorite output based on the flow rate, ensuring optimal efficiency.
With its proven track record, the Chloropac® system continues to deliver effective, long-term marine growth prevention, minimizing maintenance costs and improving operational efficiency.
