WATER ION TREATMENTSYSTEM-IOREX: THE BEST WATER PURIFIER

Description:

Water pollution is a serious threat in Pakistan, as almost 70% of its surface as well as ground water reservoirs have highly been contaminated by various organic, inorganic substances. Water ionization treatment apparatus working on the principal of static electricity which is produced by the friction of water (H2O) with the carbon electrodes inside the IOREX. When the electric charge of the static electricity level becomes high, electric discharge takes place and electrons are added to the water molecules and are ionized into +H and -OH ion with a lot of electrons. These electrons prevent corrosion, scaling, kills bacteria by destroying its cells wall. Additionally, the physico-chemical parameters also shows variation shown in the tabulated form. The chemical constituents present in water is converted from crystalline nature to globular form thus reducing the nature of its toxicity. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

INTRODUCTION TO WATER QUALITY POLUTTION
Water quality refers to the chemical, physical or
biological characteristics of water. It is a
measure of the condition of water relative to
its impact on living organism. Water is an
essential key in our lives, and the quality of
water we drink reflects our health. Billions of
people worldwide are drinking unsafe water. In
modern times, however, we are living in an
environment that cannot exist without filtering
water.

Chemicals used in agriculture, industry,
transportation, and homes can spill and leak into
groundwater and make it undrinkable. Polluted
water causes illness and death in humans and
other species and disrupts ecosystems. Water
pollution is one of the major threats to public
health in Pakistan. Pakistan ranks at number 80
among 122 nations regarding drinking
water quality. The quality of water depends upon
the absence or presence of contaminants.

Drinking water sources, both surface and
groundwater are contaminated with coliforms,
toxic metals, pesticides etc throughout the
country. Water pollution/contamination is any
chemical, biological, or physical change in water
quality that has harmful effect on living
organism or makes water unsuitable for desired
uses. It has been suggested that it is one of
the leading worldwide cause of deaths and
disease, and that it accounts for the death of
more than 14,000 people daily.

DRINKING WATER PROBLEMS IN PAKISTAN
Pakistan Council of Research in Water Resources
(PCRWR) has successfully launched a detail water
quality profile of Rural areas in Pakistan under
the National Water Quality Monitoring Program
(NWQMP 2002-06). Out of the 14000 samples
collected from the entire country only 18
sources were declared safe for drinking purposes
whereas 82 water samples were beyond the
Pakistan Standard and Water Quality Authority
(PSQCA) which led us to the conclusion that the
Federal, Provincial and Local Governments need to
take precautionary measures for the provision of
safe drinking water to the natives of rural
communities in order to prevent water born
diseases. Advocacy efforts for the awareness and
education of the villagers regarding the water
quality testing and treatment are required.

WATER CONTAMINENTS THROUGHT THW WORLD
All major water treatment plants are using one or
more processes or technology developed through
WRC funding (water Research Commission). One in
every six human beings has no access to clean
water within a kilometer of their
homes. According to the United Nations, every day
4,500 children under the age of 5 die around the
world, having fallen sick because of unclean
water and sanitation How can we help? Purchasing
or sponsoring filters, each filter kit cost
approx. 60 U.S. dollars and supports an entire
family. If properly maintained these filters can
last a lifetime

WAYS TO PURIFY DRINKING WATER
Developed countries used Surface water
Japan- process sewer water
Orange County
WATER PURIFICATIONS
worlds largest plant to make sewer water as pure
as distilled water
Korea Use IOREX
14
WHY Do WE RECOMMEND IOREX ?
THE USE OF IOREX IS TO
  • Remove pathogens because it is difficult to
    analyze numerous pathogens.
  • Time and cost prohibitive.
  • Need an indicator of potential pathogen
    contamination of water but Iorex is easy,
    reliable, quick, etc.
  • Reduce the level of those materials which are
    harmful to health.
  • Reduce the level of rusting.

MECHANSIM OF WATER IONIZATION BY IOREX
When water passes through IOREX system , the
turbulent jet which broke the cluster of water
helping in water activation by striking the water
to the carbon electrodes and generates static
electricity. When the electric charge of the
static electricity level becomes high, electric
discharge takes place and electrons are added to
the water molecules and are ionized.

RUSTING AND CORROSION
Rusting is a type of corrosion and takes place
through an electrochemical mechanism in the
presence of moist air containing dissolved
oxygen or carbon dioxide, the commercial iron
behaves as if composed of small electrical cells.
Water combines with carbon dioxide to form a
weak carbonic acid and becomes a good
electrolyte, or an even better electrolyte. Other
electrolytes also exist that help in
corrosion/rusting. The acid is formed and the
iron is dissolved . The free oxygen and iron
combine into iron oxide, in the process freeing
electrons. The electrons liberated from the anode
portion of the iron flow to the cathode, which
may be a piece of a metal less electrically
reactive than iron, or another point on the piece
of iron itself.
20
MECHANISM OF RUST AND CORROSION PREVENTION
Electrons constantly emitted due to the electric
spark through IOREX prevent irons from emitting
its electrons and, thus, prevent oxidation or
corrosion of iron and iron is converted into
reddish-brown rust, called Hematite (Fe2O3) which
is converted into black Magnetite (Fe3O4) which
coats the inside surface of pipe. It takes 1-4
weeks to remove existing rust thus preventing
leakage and increase the life span of pipe.

21
FORMATION OF SCALE
When water runs through a pipe, water is charged
with anode while the pipe is charged with
cathode. Among the minerals contained in water
are positive ions (cations) such as Ca2, Mg2,
Fe2, and Mn2 and negative ions (anions) such as
SO42-, Cl-, and HCO3-. Scale is formed when those
positive and negative ions combine chemically and
they form a solid clod and changes into a
globular form.
22
PREVENTION/REMOVAL OF SCALE
Scale-forming particles change structure due to
an adjusted chemical and ionic environment
created by the device. Turbulence an electric
double-layer promote formation of orbicular
particles that flow smoothly through plumbing
w/out sticking. The ionically-charged water
exiting the IOREX device gradually dissolves and
dislodges existing scale from the pipes inner
surface
23
IOREX AND BACTERIA
The electric spark of a electrostatic field
created in IOREX when water passes through it has
a prompt impact and special carbons inside have
an effect on making damages to the cell walls of
bacteria. The antimicrobial substance embedded
IOREX inside has also an effect on removing colon
bacillus and general bacteria.

ROLE OF GOVERNMENT
  • Everyone needs to be involved
  • National Government must provide a framework
    (policy) and legislation for protecting our water
    sources
  • Provincial and local level management measures
    and actions must be developed for giving effect
    to the national water quality management
    framework and legislation
  • Business Owners
  • Industry
  • Mines
  • Farmers
  • Interest Groups
  • General Public

37
SUMMARY
  • When water enters into the device, it produce
    static electricity due to friction and when the
    capacitor present inside the device overcharged
    it discharge with a spark and produce electrons.
  • These electrons can
  • Ionize maximum water molecules to produce H and
    OH ions.
  • Freely move to convert Fe2 to Fe and which is
    converted into Fe3O4 (Hematite) through
    successive reaction which fill the internal
    cavities produced by rusting thus increase the
    life span of the pipeline.
  • Destroy bacterial cell wall and kills it. Whereas
    in comparison antibiotic used to kill these
    bacteria are having side effects.
  • Bring variations in the Physico-Chemical
    parameters through Zeta Potential.
