The Envirolyte units produce different modes of Electrolyzed Water solutions (anolyte and catholyte), depending on the working current strength, velocities of stream of electrochemically treated water and its distribution in anode and cathode chambers.
A – Acidic Anolyte
Acidic Anolyte can be used wherever there is a need to disinfect or sterilise, in applications where the pH is unimportant and where there is no danger of corrosion. Anolyte is a very powerful disinfectant against all bacteria, viruses and algae even when it is diluted in water or sprayed in the air.
| Regime | active chlorine mg/l | pH | ORP mV (redo-potential) | Type of Envirolyte generator |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Acidic Anolyte | ~500-700 | 2.0-3.5 | ~1000-1200 | Any Envirolyte EL or ELA unit designed and set for generating of acidic Anolyte |
- Acidic Anolyte is a colourless transparent biocidical liquid with a strong chlorine smell. It consists predominantly of chlorine (Cl2) with low pH and high ORP wich all give it superior sporicidal and biocidal activity.
- Active substances conform EC 98/8 and 03/2032 concerning the placing of biocidal liquids on the market.
| Active substances | CAS-No | EINICS-No | Wt/vol % | Symbols |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sodium Chloride | 7647-14-5 | 231-598-3 | 0.26% | NaCl |
| Chlorine | 7782-50-5 | 231-959-5 | 0.05% | Cl2 |
| Water | 99.69% | H20 |
ANK – Neutral Anolyte
Neutral Anolyte is used wherever pH is important (corrosion) and where possible evaporation of active chlorine cannot be avoided. Neutral Anolyte is very effective against bacteria and viruses and is mostly used to disinfect swimming pools, drinking water or other water sources. Besides Neutral Anolyte is widely used to disinfect / sterilize objects (floors, wall, tools, foodstuff, etc.).
| Regime | active chlorine mg/l | pH | ORP mV (redo-potential) | Type of Envirolyte generator |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Neutral Anolyte | ~500-700 | ~5.5-8.5 | ~700-900 | Any Envirolyte EL or ELA unit designed and set for generating of ANK-Neutral Anolyte |
- ANK – Anolyte is a colorless transparent biocidal liquid with a slight chlorine smell. It consists predominantly of Hypochlorous acid (HClO) and Hypochlorite ion (OCl-) witch gives it superior sporicidal and biocidal activity.
- Active substances conform EC 98/8 and 03/2032 concerning the placing of biocidal liquids on the market.
| Active substances | CAS-No | EINICS-No | Wt/vol % | Symbols |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sodium Chloride | 7647-14-5 | 231-598-3 | 0.26% | NaCl |
| Hypochlorous acid | 7790-92-3 | 232-232-5 | 0.05% | HClO |
| Water | 7732-18-5 | 231-791-2 | 99.69% | H20 |
K – Catholyte
Alkaline Catholyte has a pH between 11 and 13 and can be used for flocculation (e.g. of heavy metals), coagulation, washing, extraction. Furthermore this solution can be used to wash wounds (instead of using iodine) and wherever there is a need to increase pH level of the water to be treated.
| Regime | active chlorine mg/l | pH | ORP mV (redo-potential) | Type of Envirolyte generator |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Catholyte | 0 | 11-13 | ~800-900 | Any Envirolyte EL or ELA unit |
It has been proved by the tests conducted by the National Industrial Fuel Efficiency Service Ltd. (NIFES) on behalf of the Scottish Borders Enterprise that anolyte and catholyte produced by Envirolyte unit have properties consistent with those claimed by the Envirolyte Industries International Ltd.
