A
unique system |
|
The
AQUA-4LIVE
Group has converted achievements and inventions in ECA
into a range of exclusive products:diaphragmatic
cells and
Aqua-4live
units to suit numerous applications under the
Trade
Mark of
Aqua-4live®.-

Made to last |
|
Aqua-4live
units have been designed for continual use. The use of
high-grade materials without any fragile or moving
components make reliable
units
|
|
Unique solutions |
|
Two
solutions
generated by
Aqua-4live
units are unique in their own way. Anolyte with pH
controlled in the range 2.0-8.5 and ORP +700mV -
+1200mV has a great biocidal potential. Catholyte is a
perfect washing liquid and an important means to
increase pH.

No more chemicals |

There is a wide range of potential disinfection
applications of
Aqua-4live
units. The problems associated with handling and
storage of chemical based systems provide a number of
opportunities. The
Aqua-4live
units can largely overcome Health and Safety measures
as well as Environmental pollution problems associated
with traditional chemical systems.

Electrochemistry is the part of science which deals with
the interrelationship of electrical currents, or voltages,
and chemical reactions, and with the mutual conversion of
chemical and electrical energy.
-
ECA
is based on a new, previously unknown law of anomalous
changes of reactional and catalytic abilities of aqueous
solutions subjected to electrochemical unipolar (either
anodic or cathodic) treatment. ECA
of solutions is necessarily associated with alteration of
their chemical composition, acidity and (or) alkalinity
within a wide range.
That is why ECA
application makes it possible:
- to exclude from routine technological processes the
regulation of solution properties with costly reagents;
- to improve quality of the treated substances;
- to reduce the number and duration of technological
operations;
- to decrease their labour-consuming nature;
- to facilitate and simplify processes of water and sewage
purification.
Unlike well-known electrochemical reactions, in the
processes of electrochemical activation initial substances
are diluted aqua-saline (brine) solution and mains water.
The eventual ECA
products are not concentrated chemical substances, but
activated (Anolyte
and Catholyte) solutions: low mineralised liquids in a
metastable state, manifesting increased chemical activity.
Synthesis of electrochemically activated solutions is only
possible when unipolar electrochemical exposure is
combined with treatment of as many as possible
microvolumes of liquid in high voltage electric field of a
double electric layer near the electrode's surface.
The above stated conditions of producing activated
solutions can be realised only in special
diaphragmatic cells
(round or square) which are the key elements of every
Aqua-4live®
unit.

Drawing of
Aqua-4live®
operational principle
|
-
The electrochemically activated solutions produced by
Aqua-4live
units (Anolyte
and Catholyte) are
channelled through canals and chambers and separated by the
membranes. This unique allows for more even distribution
of electrolyte (brine solution) within the volumes of the
chambers and reduces the risk of the formation of stagnant
zones when flow rates of electrolyte are high. The
construction of the diaphragmatic cells also allows highly
effective evacuation of products of electrochemical and
chemical reactions from the chambers.

Why Aqua-4live? |
|
Reliable units to produce powerful, non-toxic,
non-hazardous cold disinfection and sterilization agents
with stable parameters, on site and on demand plus
encorporated self-cleaning process give the
AQUA-4LIVE
Group a strong technical and commercial edge over
competition
. |
|
|
|
|
-
The life-time problem of degradation of electrodes has
been overcome by means of a unique process and the
strength of the current they can withstand has also been
increased considerably.
A
self cleaning process
has been designed to minimize the use of acids in the
cleaning of electrodes
(independent Decalcification and
Ionizer
are inbuilt in all of
our installations).
