Maximizing Water-Electrode Contact for Efficient Water Treatment: Diaphragmatic Cell Design
Function: The diaphragmatic cells in OmniLyte Alkalizer Series water generators are designed to maximize the contact between the water and the electrode surfaces as it flows through the anode or cathode chambers. This design ensures that all micro volumes of water are thoroughly exposed to the electrodes.
Process: The electrodes in the reactor are coated with a mixture of precious metals like ruthenium, iridium, platinum, and titanium, ensuring durability and effectiveness. Between these electrodes is a ceramic diaphragm made from zirconium, yttrium, and aluminum oxides. This setup prevents mixing of the water in the anode and cathode chambers, allowing for optimal ion migration and interaction at the electrode surfaces.
Double Electric Layer (DEL): Near the electrode surfaces, the electric field intensity can reach between 100,000 and 10,000,000 volts per centimeter. This intense electric field forms what's known as the Double Electric Layer, significantly enhancing the quality of both electrolytic and electrocatalytic ionization of water.

Rapid Oxidation for Immediate Water Purification: Anode Unipolar Electrochemical Treatment
Process: During this treatment, water is quickly saturated with highly active oxidants within fractions of a second. This rapid saturation is crucial for initiating strong oxidation reactions needed to purify the water effectively.
Importance: The quick generation of oxidants ensures that the water's treatment begins almost immediately upon entering the system, which is vital for maintaining a continuous flow of purified water.

Breaking Down Impurities through Oxidation: Direct Electrolytic and Electro-Catalytic Oxidation
Process: These processes occur at the electrode surface where direct electrolytic oxidation breaks down organic impurities through powerful oxidation reactions. Electro-catalytic oxidation assists further by enhancing these reactions.
Outcome: The complete oxidation of organic materials, including harmful phenols, typically results in harmless end products like carbon dioxide and water, making the process environmentally friendly and safe.

High Oxidation Conditions for Safe Water Treatment: High Oxidation-Reduction Potential and Meta-Stable Compounds
Process: In the anode chamber, the water achieves a very high oxidation-reduction potential. This environment, along with the presence of meta-stable compounds of active chlorine and oxygen, plays a critical role in chemical reactions.
Importance: These conditions prevent the formation of toxic chlorine-organic substances and ensure the complete destruction of extremely harmful contaminants like dioxins.

Final Purification and Enrichment in the Catalytic Reactor: Catalytic Reactor and Hetero-Phase Catalytic Oxidation
Process: The catalytic reactor uses a special, maintenance-free catalyst to carry out hetero-phase catalytic destruction of active chlorine compounds and the oxidation of organic substances.
Mechanism: On the surface of catalyst granules, active chlorine compounds are broken down into highly reactive, short-lived particles.
Final Stage: As the treated water exits the catalytic chamber, it is rich in oxygen and virtually free of active chlorine compounds, ensuring that the water is both purified and enriched.

Water ionized by the OmniLyte Alkalizer Series not only becomes free from impurities but also stimulates biological oxidation and acquires biocide properties that can indirectly detoxify the body by aiding in the breakdown of toxins.
