What is Electrolyzed Oxidizing Water?
Electrolyzed Oxidizing Water is electrolytically generated hypochlorous acid (HOCl), a neutral-to-acidic electrolyzed water. HOCl has been studied for over 100 years and it is an undeniable fact that it is a more powerful oxidant than chlorine bleach. Only within the last 30 years have we been able to generate solutions of near 100% HOCl in such a stable form. HOCl kills bacteria, bacterial spores, and viruses 100 times more effectively than chlorine bleach.
How does it work?
Electrolyzed Oxidizing Water is a powerful oxidant (800 to 1000 mV) that can kill microbial pathogens immediately upon contact by damaging cell walls or inactivate the pathogen by entering and disrupting proteins, lipids, and DNA.
Has it been researched?
In the last 30 years we have collected over 300 published research articles supporting the use of Electrolyzed Oxidizing Water. Nearly every common bacterial pathogen has been studied such as E. coli, Salmonella, Listeria, Vibrio, Staphylococcus, MRSA, spore forming bacteria, and many common viruses (including Norovirus) and fungi. To learn more please visit our research page and search by microbe or industry to find applicable research.
What about regulation from FDA, USDA, and EPA?
We have pages dedicated to the regulation of electrolyzed water as it pertains to the FDA, USDA, and EPA. Please visit our pages for more information. In regards to healthcare sanitation, see our page for the CDC.
Water Park Sanitation
Electrolyzed Oxidizing Water (EOW) can replace chlorine bleach for sanitizing water parks. EOW has many advantages over bleach in that it is 100% safe on eyes and skin, non-toxic if swallowed, and is friendly to the environment.
No Skin or Eye Irritation. Safe if Swallowed.
Traditional chlorine bleach is manufactured from chlorine gas and sodium hydroxide. It is highly caustic in concentrated form and is still an irritant to skin and eyes when diluted in water. Electrolytically generated hypochlorous acid is made from just table salt, water, and electricity. It is 100% safe and non-toxic. It does not cause skin irritation. It does not cause eye irritation and it is safe if accidentally swallowed.
Water Disinfection
EOW is electrically generated hypochlorous acid which is the most powerful oxidizing chlorine molecule for water disinfection. EcoloxTech systems can be stacked to maintain sanitation of all the water in an entire water park.
Employee Safety
EOW is generated on-site and on-demand. The only ingredients needed are salt, water, and electricity. Concentrated chemicals require purchasing, transporting, storing, and preparation. Preparation of toxic concentrated chemicals can be a safety hazard for employees as they are respiratory and skin irritants. EOW is 100% safe for employees. It does not require any special handling. It is non-irritant and does not require gloves or masks.
Application using Spraying, Misting, and Fogging,
EOW can be applied using many different methods. Pressure sprayers can be used to sanitize equipment and hard surfaces. Large spaces can be sanitized and deodorized using misting and fogging.
Effective Against Microbial Pathogens
EOW is an ideal alternative to chlorine bleach, quatenary ammoniums (Quats), and peroxide based chemicals. Not only is electrolyzed sanitation water safe and all-natural, but it is more effective than the chemicals currently being used.

CDI effectively removes most inorganic contaminants that are charged species such as nitrates, ammonia, arsenic, lead, flouride, magnesium, calcium, and total dissolved solids (TDS) or salinity.
CDI can also remove organic contaminants if they have a charge. However, most organic contaminants can be removed by activated carbon filters prior to running through the CDI.
CDI can remove radionuclide contaminants such as alpha particles, beta particles, Radium, and Uranium.
EcoloxTech Water Purification
EcoloxTech builds water purification systems using membrane capacitive deionization (CDI) technology.
How much water can it purify?
EcoloxTech CDI systems can be stacked with any number of CDI cells to meet the need of any project small or large. Whether it be for a home, business, manufacturing plant, or municipality, EcoloxTech can custom build a CDI system specific to any application.
How does it work?
CDI is a technology to purify water by applying an electrical potential difference over two porous carbon electrodes. Anions (negative charge) are removed from the water and are stored in the positively polarized electrode. Likewise, cations (positive charge) are stored in the cathode, which is the negatively polarized electrode.
Removing Contaminants
CDI is able to effectively remove the following water contaminants:
- Temporary Hardness: Ca , Mg
- Total Hardness: CaCl2 , MgCl2 , CaSo4 , MgSO4
- Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
- Chlorides and Sulphates
- Sodium chloride: NaCl
- Sodium Sulphate: Na2SO4
- Nitrate Anion NO3
- Nitrite Anion NO2
- Ammonia NH4+
- Iron (Fe) (when present in ionic form)
- Magnesium (Mm) (when present in ionic form)
- High level of oxidizers (when connected with humic acid)
- Organic Micro pollutant (when present in dissociated form)
- Hexavalent chrome
- Arsenic
- Fluorides
- Heavy Metals
EcoloxTech CDI systems can be designed, engineered, and custom built to meet the needs of almost any application. The percentage of demineralization can be varied based on the specific water needs. This can be done by varying the potential difference across the electrodes from 1 to 1.6V. This characteristic, unique in respect to all other water purification technologies in the industry, allows for the alteration of the water’s taste.
CDI Advantages
EcoloxTech CDI has many advantages over Reverse Osmosis (RO):
- Minimal Water Wasted – Compared to conventional RO systems that waste more than 30% of the water, the maximum water wasted in EcoloxTech CDI systems is less than 10%. This results in long-term conservation of ground water.
- Lower Operating Cost – EcoloxTech CDI systems use no chemicals and have lower consumable requirements for operation. The systems consume less power and the total cost of producing treated water is in the range of 1 cent per 10 liters
- Simplistic Operation – EcoloxTech CDI systems have a built in controller that automates the working of the system in local conditions and the entire system can be managed with little or no training.
- Small Footprint – A typical EcoloxTech CDI system requires very little space to operate. EcoloxTech can build systems for homes that are small enough for a countertop or systems large enought to meet the needs of municipalities.
- Environmentally Friendly – Since EcoloxTech CDI systems do not use any chemicals for treatment, the water drained from the system does not contain any chemicals that are hazardous to the environment. This ensures the safe release of water back to the environment.
- Retention of Beneficial Minerals – Unlike water treatment in a typical Reverse Osmosis system, where most of the minerals are removed from the incoming water, EcoloxTech CDI systems can be set to retain desired levels of minerals that are beneficial to the human body.
EcoloxTech Electrolyzers can disinfect all the water needed for food and beverage manufacturing without using toxic concentrated chemicals.
Hypochlorous acid is 100 times more effective than bleach as a disinfectant.
EcoloxTech electrolyzers generate a powerful mixed oxidant solution that inactivate microbial pathogens by damaging their cell walls and disrupting their internal proteins, lipids, and DNA.
In the last 30 years we have collected over 300 published research articles supporting the use of Electrolyzed Oxidizing Water for disinfection. Nearly every common bacteria has been studied as well as viruses and fungi. To learn more please visit our research page and search by microbe to find applicable research.
What about EPA regulation?
Because electrolytically generated hypochlorous acid is a free chlorine molecule, it falls under the Safe Water Drinking Act (42 U.S.C. 300f et seq. 1974) which allows for a free chlorine concentration of up to 4 ppm.
Water Disinfection
Water disinfection by electrochemical activation is not only more effective than conventional methods of water disinfection, but it is less expensive and environmentally friendly.
The conventional methods, which have seen extensive use over the last 100 years, include chlorine gas and chlorine solutions of sodium hypochlorite (bleach). Despite the vast amount of experience gained over the years, these methods have disadvantages, including the cost of the chemicals and the large investment required for protection and safety equipment.
Electrolytically generated hypochlorous acid is 100 times more effective than sodium hypochlorite yet requires no protective gear or safety equipment and is non-toxic, non-irritant, and eco-friendly.
