Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2022128436A1] The invention relates to a water-conducting electric device comprising a water-receiving element (1); an electrochemical cell (3) which comprises electrodes and is designed to generate a bleaching agent when the electrochemical cell contains a salt-containing solution and when a direct voltage is applied to the electrodes; a pump which is designed to convey fluid located in the electrochemical cell (3) out of the electrochemical cell (3) and into the water-receiving element (1); and a control unit (18) which is configured to selectively apply a direct voltage as well as an alternating voltage to the electrodes of the electrochemical cell (3). The invention additionally relates to a method for operating the water-conducting electric device, having the following steps: a) supplying the salt-containing solution to the electrochemical cell (3); b) applying a direct voltage to the electrodes of the electrochemical cell (3) for a specified duration following step a) in order to generate the bleaching agent in the electrochemical cell (3); c) applying an alternating voltage to the electrodes of the electrochemical cell (3) for a specified duration following step b) in order to heat fluid located in the electrochemical cell (3); and d) conveying the fluid out of the electrochemical cell (3) and into the water-receiving element (1).
