ELECTROLYZED FLUID ELIXIR ECA SOLUTIONS PVT LTD

The Technology Electro Chemical Activation (ECA) is the process used to generate liquid biocides known as Electrolyzed Fluid (Elixir) – Elixir is non-toxic, pH neutral and has an extended shelf life. “Electrolyzed Fluid” – is water that has had an electric current passed through it, thereby generating a number of oxidized species. This is an electrochemical (or oxidation- reduction) process. Specifically, it is an electrolysis process. THE BASICS..

ELIXIR ECA SOLTIONS PVT LTD. Elixir is generated by ElectroChemical Activation of a dilute NaCI (brine) solution passing through an electrolytic cell. ECA technology utilizes Electrolytic Cells where the anode chamber is separated by an unidirectional permeable membrane from the cathode chamber. The Electrolytic Cell allows migration of ions through the membranes and separation of such ions and prevention of production of high levels of Hypochlorous Acid. The ECA electrolysis process is one in which positive and negative electrodes are submerged in a solution containing positive and negative ions. Positive ions (cations) are drawn towards the negative electrode, where they receive electrons from the electron-rich cathode and neutral atoms or molecules are formed. At the anode (positive electrode) negative ions (anions) are attracted, which give up their additional electrons to the electron-depleted anode.

The Properties of Elixir pH neutral, Non-hazardous, non-toxic, non-irritant, non-odorous, non-corrosive Completely safe for human contact – mimics immune systems natural defenses to kill infectious pathogens The Elixir will destroy all forms of micro-organisms – even those that are normally extremely difficult to kill and have high levels of resistance to chemical attack – such as pathogenic bacteria including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Clostridium difficile (C.Diff), cysts such as Cryptosporidium and Giardia, protozoa, spoors such as anthrax and Legionella, viruses such as avian flu, and fungi. Destroys biofilm – the environment on the internal surfaces of water pipes in which micro-organisms propagate Relaxes after time to original constituents of dilute brine solution No microbial resistance or mutation, Effective at very low concentrations, Ready to use. Multi-use applications – water treatment, surface cleaning, specialist cleaning, wound care Another commonly used methods revolved around Elixir is the ability to kill spores of Bacillus subtilis, a bacterium known to be amongst the most resilient to chlorine.

Biocidal Efficacy Microbial efficacy is normally measured by a suspension test on Staphylococcus aureus Staphylococcus epidermidis Enterococcus hirae Escherichia coli Pseudomonas aeruginosa Bacillus subtilis Based on all bactericidal, fungicidal and sporicidal testing performed it can be stated that all the microbial testing requirements for Elixir have been met or exceeded. Contact times to achieve complete destruction of cells and infectious capacity were significantly reduced in comparison with other biocides. All tests done by FICCI Research and analysis centre New Delhi.

SWIMMING POOLS, SPA’S, WATER RESORT WATER DISINFECTION Water for leisure use in swimming pools, water parks and spas needs careful control, balancing and monitoring to meet the requirements of the operators and the expectations of users. The ideal pool and spa water has to be: crystal clear and sparkling completely free of any chemical and microbial contaminants including cysts odour free and leaving no residual skin odour leave no sensation of stinging eyes or skin a totally natural, safe experience free from any evidence of chemical application. For the operator of any commercial pool, water park or spa, the ideal water treatment technology is one where: The users recognise the outstanding quality of the water and the absence of chemical taint Public liability is minimised as there are no hazardous chemicals in use and the microbial kill is total The maintenance and management of the water is dramatically simplified and made non-hazardous The critical water quality parameters of pH, calcium, bromine and FAOx are easily managed Super-chlorination routines are eliminated Pool cleaning routines are reduced as fatty deposit tide lines are eliminated Make-up water is reduced Rapid and safe response to contamination incidents

Giardia & Cryptosporidium Giardia and Cryptosporidium are microscopic parasites that can be found in water. Giardia causes an intestinal illness called giardiasis and Cryptosporidium is responsible for a similar illness called cryptosporidiosis. Both parasites produce cysts that are very resistant to harsh environmental conditions and the majority of disinfectants including sodium hypochlorite and chlorine. When ingested, they germinate, reproduce, and cause illness. While not fatal, the principle symptoms of infection are unpleasant and include diarrhoea, vomiting, chills, headache, and fever and abdominal cramps. The control of Giardia and Cryptosporidium in public and commercial swimming pools and spas is a major issue especially in facilities where there is a high usage by young children and populations from different origins. In addition, the potentially fatal Legionnaires' disease, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Mycobacterium avium and similar mycobacteria, and various amoebae also pose risks to users of public water facilities and potential liabilities to operators.
