SafeWater SPX Flow Technology Innovation Centre Originally developed for the production of chlorine in swimming pools, electrolysis technology has been advanced to enable the production of valuable cleaning and sanitising solutions. When sodium chloride is subjected to electrolysis with a dividing membrane between the electrodes, two separate solutions are produced. These are primarily hypochlorous acid and sodium hydroxide at the anode and cathode respectively. Hypochlorous acid is powerful sanitiser and cleaning agent and is substantially more effective than hypochlorite. The soil removal process is fast and effective without the need for heating. This new technology revolutionises CIP and sanitation procedures. It assists in reducing the carbon footprint, saves energy and the costs of expensive formulated chemicals. FUNDAMENTALS OF SAFEWATER Electrolysis of common salt with a dividing membrane between the electrodes results in two separate solutions suitable for sanitation (Anolyte) and CIP (Catholyte) – hypochlorous acid (HOCL) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) being the main constituents. Hypochlorous acid, a weak acid that also occurs naturally in the body to combat infection, is a powerful sanitiser and cleaning agent that is substantially more effective than hypochlorite. It sanitises rapidly and effectively without the need for heating. This new technology revolutionises CIP procedures. It helps reduce carbon footprint, shortens changeover time and saves energy as well as the costs of expensive, formulated chemicals. The process of deposit removal is fast and effective without the need for heating. However, when dealing with heavy mineral deposits and pronounced fouling it may be necessary to complement with traditional CIP procedures. The fundamentals of using natural drinking water with just a bit of food salt added and applying an electrical current to produce a natural disinfectant that is identical with nature’s own have elevated the status of natural disinfection in the dairy, food and beverage industries as an environmentally friendly solution. The fact that the process is based upon simple electrolysis using only natural ingredients such as water and salt means that SafeWater is a truly sustainable solution.
