Abstract (en)

Provided is a washing machine operable to recover metal ions supplied to water used for laundering. The washing machine (1) comprises a metal ion water generation part (90) for applying the metal ions to water and a metal ion recovery unit (200) disposed so as to contact the water with the metal ions applied by the metal ion water generation part (90), for recovering the metal ions in the water. In a method for recovering the metal ions in the washing machine (1), the metal ion recovery unit (200) is disposed, in the washing machine (1) operable to apply the metal ions to a fabric structure, so as to contact the water used for laundering and recovers the metal ions in the water.
