Abstract: Hydroxyl radicals (•OH) can be produced by advanced oxidation technology. Applying electrochemical advanced oxidation technology to washing machine, and utilizing the strong oxidation ability of •OH, washing machine may realize the function of dye transfer inhibition, white clothes whitening, bacteria removing and inhibition, improvement of cleaning effect for special stains. Washing and caring effect of washing machine equipped with electrochemical advanced oxidation technology was evaluated comprehensively in this research. The results showed that washing machine equipped with electrochemical advanced oxidation technology can effectively inhibit dye transfer, improve the whiteness of white clothes after washing, achieve sterilizing with low energy consumption, inhibit bacteria in 48 h, improve the cleaning effect of special stains, has no risk getting the color of clothes faded in washing process. In addition, •OH can degrade dyes in washing wastewater, which reveals indispensable environmental values.

Key words: Washing machine, Electrochemical, Hydroxyl radical, Dye transfer inhibition, Bacteria removing
