Chemical-free Water Treatment Makes a Splash

Hydrosmart's  technology uses microprocessors attached to the outside of underwater pipes that emit sound frequencies and clean the water to environmental standards, since it's chemical-free.

The innovative solution was originally developed to stop minerals in the water such as iron and calcium sticking to the pipes.

It is now being used to reduce algae and balance Oxygen level at a sugarcane processing plant in the Eastern Thai province of Sakeo.

Hydrosmart physical water conditioning system is a simple, sustainable and effective approach to conditioning water. It requires no chemicals, no filters and no maintenance.

Hydrosmart is based on particle physics research which has established that scale layers and corrosion problems are related to how well minerals in water are dissolved.

Hydrosmart dissolves a broad range of minerals. Subsequent application of the technology by crop growers has demonstrated that better dissolved minerals also confer a distinct growth advantage for living organisms.

It is said to be highly efficient, only costing about AUD$10 (£6.12) a year, less than a standard light bulb. It also requires very little maintenance and can be left to run on its own for long periods.

A demonstration unit of the unique process cleaned a large tank of dirty water in only four weeks.

The plant now plans to install a full size model.
