| Production |
Electrochemical activation of Brine through Modular electrolyzer. |
Electrochemical activation of Brine through Membrane electrolyzer. |
| Compound Description |
NaOCl |
HOCl |
| Alternative Name |
Bleach, Hypo |
Anolyte, Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) / Slightly Acidic Electrolyzed (SAE) Water / Electrochemically Activated (ECA) Water |
| Material Safety Data Sheet Statement |
Very hazardous in case of skin contact, eye contact, ingestion. It is an irritant and corrosive. Prolonged exposure may result in skin burns and ulcerations. |
Under normal usage conditions the likelihood of adverse health effects are low. The solution is recommended for treatment of infected or purulent wounds. If any irritation occurs, flush with water. |
| Usage level |
50 ppm |
0.25 ppm to 5 ppm, even 500 ppm, it is not harmful to Human or Animals. |

| At high pH |
Hypochlorite ion (OCl-) |
Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl) |
| Contact time |
- |
Requires the shorted time to achieve a 99.9% kill of
E-Coli. |
| Shelf-life |
Lye added resulting in burn potential |
No lye added |
| Biocidal Impact |
Only as disinfectant |
As disinfectant and sporicidal agent |
| Resistance |
Bacteria develops resistance to bleach due to its method of attack and residual organisms, biofilm remaining, and interaction with detergents. |
Bacteria does not develop a same type of resistance due to impact at cellular level destroys biofilm and no need for significant detergent use. |
| Advantages |
- Efficient Oxidant and disinfectant.
- Efficiently eliminates tastes and odor.
- Featured with aftereffect.
- Only as disinfectant.
- Iron and magnesium oxidant. Decomposes hydrogen sulphide, cyanides, ammonium & other nitrogen compounds.
|
- Strong disinfectant and oxidation agent.
- Very effective against all kind of bacteria and virus.
- Highly effective as a sporicidal agent.
- Removes biofilms.
- Significantly less formation of chlorine compounds, halogens and TMT.
- No toxic by-products Chlorites (ClO2) & Chlorates (ClO3).
- Very effective against all kind of bacteria and virus.
- No acute or chronic toxicity when diluted in water.
- Low cost. No transport or storage problem.
- Easy and safe storage and handling.
|
| Dis advantages |
- Strict requirements for transportation and storage.
- Potential danger for health in case of a leak. Formation of disinfection by-products such as chloroform. The MAC in water will be increased in the near feature from 60 mkg / l up to 60 mg / l because there was no proof of direct action of the chloroform on DNA.
|
- Ventilation might be required in the installation room to remove fumes.
