Learn how electrolysis works to produce eWater’s cleaning and sanitising solutions using water, salt, and electricity.
Overview
Electrolysis is the process that powers eWater Systems, transforming simple ingredients into powerful cleaning and sanitising solutions. This advanced yet straightforward technology is both effective and environmentally friendly.
Basic Ingredients
Electrolysis uses three main ingredients
-
- Tap water
- High-purity electrolyser salt
- Electricity.
The Process
- The tap water is mixed with the high-purity salt to create a saline solution.
- This saline solution is then fed into the eWater System, where an electric current is applied.
- The electric current causes the water molecules (H2O) and salt molecules (NaCl) to break apart and form new substances.
Resulting Solutions
- The process produces two distinct solutions: eWater Clean and eWater Sanitise.
- eWater Clean is an alkaline solution (sodium hydroxide, NaOH) that is excellent for breaking down oils, proteins, and biofilms.
- eWater Sanitise is an acidic solution (hypochlorous acid, HOCl) that is highly effective at killing bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens.
Applications
These solutions can be used for a wide range of cleaning and sanitising tasks, making them versatile and valuable for various industries, including healthcare, food preparation, and general sanitation. [INSERT LINK TO APPLICATIONS]
In summary, electrolysis is a simple yet powerful process that uses water, salt, and electricity to produce effective cleaning and sanitising solutions. This technology is at the heart of eWater Systems, providing a safe, eco-friendly alternative to traditional chemical cleaners.
