Introduction
Hypochlorous acid generator is a system which is produced by electrolysis of tap water through water purification system and is produced by a special electrolytic cell. The system produce hypochlorous acid (HCLO) with pH (3~8), redox potential (ORP value +800mv or more) and available chlorine (up to 800ppm), also produce sodium hydroxide (NaOH) with PH (10~12), redox potential(ORP value -800~900 mv).
Principle of electrolysis
Hypochlorous acid generator electrolyzes 0.3% of NaCl solution in a special electrolytic module. In the advanced anion membrane, the acid oxidation potential water is generated from the anode side and the alkaline reduction potential is generated from the cathode side. Most of the alkaline water will enter the anode chamber twice, and after the second electrolysis, the slightly acidic electrolytic ion water will be generated from the anode side. A small amount of alkaline water will be generated from cathode side.
Technical principle
Anolyte from anode
The slightly acidic water (HOCl) produced from anode side with high redox potential and excellent germicidal ability, and it contains no chemical additives. The slightly acidic electrolyzed water is a solution with high safety, no residue and environmentally friendly.
Catholyte from cathode
The main component of catholyte is sodium hydroxide (NaOH) with 10~12 PH, -800~900mv ORP, which can effectively clean and disinfect the general surface, activate crop growth, or as a coagulation or flocculant (handling mild heavy metal pollution, or ingesting oily ingredients in the isolation solution, etc.), even replacing iodine to clean the wound, or properly adjust pH of liquid, etc.
When to use it
| Where Used | Effect |
| Sterilizing cut vegetables | After cleaning, vegetables are sanitized and kept fresh for longer time: crisp and crunchy. |
| Sterilizing & sanitizing cutting board | The cutting board cleaned with Slightly Acidic Electrolyzed Water can be kept clean without bacteria growth. |
| Hygienic management of pool | Used for the water in public pools, it has outstanding sterilization effect and allows much reduced chlorine odor compared with the conventional sterilization method. |
| Sterilization and sanitization of plant facilities | It is time-proven with more than 10 year`s experiences including large milk plants in Japan. |
