Introduction
Water is the no. 1 food source. Even though Germany has since January 2003 one of
the strictest drinking water regulations, in accordance with the EU –Guidelines and the
water quality is extremely high, the question still arises, how to achieve germ free
drinking water, without – as is the custom, using chemical additives. REDO® Water
Systems GmbH offers a water disinfecting system, a technology for producing clean
and germ free drinking water, in which the use of chemicals becomes obsolete.

REDO® Water Systems GmbH, with the head office in Gross Zimmern, is a young,
international company which develops and produces Water Disinfecting Units.
The environmentally-friendly process, which is used in stationary and mobile units, is
based on the further development of electroanalysis. The speciality being: this process
operates without chemical additives.

Through the modular structure of the unit, standard capacities from 25 – 250 m3/h are
possible, larger units are available upon request.

The units are applicable in all areas in which high quality drinking water determines the
product quality, such as agriculture and cattle breeding, the food and beverage
industry, hospitals, municipal supply, as well as in the transportation industry.

Advantages of the unit, are among other things:

• high economic efficiency through low operating costs and low energy
requirements
• simple and safe operation
• environmentally-friendly process

The efficiency of the unit towards, among other things, legionella, e. coli, enterokokken
and coliform bacteria, have been confirmed in various expert’s reports.

REDO® Water Systems GmbH was awarded the Federal Award for Outstanding
Innovative Performance 2004 from the Federal Ministry of Economics and Labour, at
the International Trade Fair IHM 2004 in Munich.

At the end of 2004, when the Tsunami disaster in South East Asia shocked the entire
world, REDO® Water Systems, in cooperation with a relief organization, started an
immediate aid response. However, REDO® Units are not only in catastrophic areas
such as Sri Lanka, Sumatra, Thailand or during the flood disaster in the eastern portion
of Germany to be found. Frankfurt Hahn Airport, AIRBUS Germany, the University
Hospital in Marburg, as well as a large number of poultry breeders value the efficiency
and reliability of the units from REDO® Water Systems GmbH. Units have also been
installed, among other, in Australia, Malaysia, Indonesia and North Korea.

Besides the head office in Germany, REDO® Water Systems GmbH also has branches
in Australia, Iran, Malaysia, Sumatra (Indonesia), as well as in the United Arab
Emirates.

The REDO®-technology
The REDO® technology for the preparation and disinfecting of water, is based on the
further development of electroanalysis.
In a cell, this procedure, produces from a salt mixture, under the application of an
electrical field (direct current) the solutions, REDO®lyt (sour) and REDO®kat (alkaline).

The cell consists of a cathode, an anode and a membrane, which separates the two
electrodes. Thus, two hermetic separate chambers are formed through which a salt
solution flows.
By applying a direct current on the anode (+) and cathode (-), it comes to a
transformation of the salt solution into the effective solutions REDO®lyt and REDO®kat.

This process does not require any type of chemical or other chemical additives. Thus
no harmful by- or end products develop. The produced solutions REDO®lyt and
REDO®kat are metastable, which means after a certain time-period they return to their
original substances – water and salt.
REDO®lyt and REDO®kat are biodegradable.

In contrast to the conventional electrolyser, in which a re-mixture of the developing

active substances can not be excluded, this is to a great extent eliminated, with the
membrane which is a part of the REDO process.

Effectiveness
The high intensity of the electrical field between anode and cathode lends a high redox
potential to the water and the salts detached in it.

The redox potential marks the reduction and/or oxidation behavior within liquids.
Organic materials and micro organisms let the redox potential of water drop,
diminishing the water quality. Oxidizing materials, i.e. materials with a high redox
potential e.g. oxygen or ozone, are able to waiver this negative effect. The redox
potential, is therefore, a good indicator of the germ count in the water.
With a redox potential of 200 mV a 100% germ count exists, by increasing the redox
potential to 300 mV a 90% decrease in the germ count is evident. If the redox potential
is increased to approx. 400 mV, resulting in a germ count of approx. 1% of the initial
status. Complete sterilization is achieved with a redox potential of 700 mV.

 While the conventional disinfecting techniques operate mostly with only one active
agent, the solutions REDO®lyt resp. REDO®neutral which are achieved through the
diaphragmalyser contains the four powerful oxidants (oxygen, chlorine, onzone and
hydro dioxide). With the combination of these four oxidants the REDO®- Process
achieves a redox potential of approx. 1200 mV.

REDOX POTENTIAL COMPARISON

REDO®lyt, is therefore, a extremely powerful oxidant solution, which is capable of

eliminating a wide spread number of harmful bacterias, viruses, fungis, germs and also
legionelle.

The active substances of REDO®lyt / REDO®neutral affects the outer core, in which the
micro organisms are encompassed. The weakened cell wall of the micro organisms
does not withstand the osmotic pressure, which prevails on the inside of the micro
organisms. The result being the single-celled organisms burst formally apart and in
such a way are eliminated. REDO®lyt/REDO®neutral disturbs the mechanisms of the
electron transport permanently, which is one of the reasons for the absence of the
resistance built-up. Existing resistance towards antibiotics and disinfectants can
effectively and environmentally eluded with the aid of REDO®lyt/REDO®neutral.

Depsite the high effectivness towards the micro organisms, REDO®lyt and REDO®kat
are harmless for humans and animals
