How HOCl Generator works

Our method utilises Electro-Chemical Activation (ECA), an innovative technology that revolutionises the creation of safe, effective, and eco-friendly disinfectants and cleaners. This advanced process transforms ordinary tap water infused with sodium chloride into potent cleaning solutions by employing sophisticated electrolytic cells. 

Moving beyond the limitations of traditional electrolysis cells, which typically produce only small volumes of unstable, low-pH oxidized water and basic hypochlorite (bleach), our system is a leap forward. It features electrolytic cells designed with a unidirectional permeable membrane. This unique configuration allows the ions to migrate and separate effectively, preventing the formation of gaseous chlorine (CL2) while simultaneously generating substantial quantities of neutral pH HOCL.

The result? A highly biocidal solution that is markedly more efficient and carries a significantly lower chemical load compared to conventional sodium hypochlorite. Our solution is not just powerful but also environmentally conscious, making it an ideal choice for those seeking effective cleaning and disinfecting methods without compromising on safety and sustainability.

Regular tap water with a minimal sodium chloride (NaCl) concentration undergoes electrolysis within a chamber featuring a positive anode and negative cathode, separated by a unidirectional, permeable diaphragm.


Positive ions (cations) are directed to the cathode, where they acquire electrons from the electron-rich cathode, resulting in the formation of sodium hydroxide (NaOH). This substance acts as a cleaning fluid with the capability to diminish bacteria and pathogens.


Meanwhile, at the anode, negative ions (anions) are lured and release their surplus electrons to the electron-deprived anode, generating hypochlorous acid (HOCL). This potent disinfecting fluid possesses remarkable germicidal, biocidal, and sporicidal properties, effectively eliminating pathogens like Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE), Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1), among others.
