A revolutionary solution for addressing complex water contamination challenges

The OXbyEL technology is designed to mineralize a wide range of pollutants, including both organic and inorganic contaminants that are typically resistant to conventional water treatment methods. OXbyEL’s treatment process, ELECTRO-OX™, is a groundbreaking solution for addressing PFAS contamination, offering a sustainable, efficient, and cost-effective alternative to conventional water treatment technologies. OXbyEL’s ability to mineralize a broad spectrum of pollutants makes it a revolutionary solution for addressing complex water contamination challenges, ensuring compliance with stringent regulations while reducing costs and environmental liabilities.

ELECTRO-OX™ utilizes a patented Divided Radial-Field Electrolyzer equipped with low cost, proprietary 3D anode electrocatalyst technology to achieve advanced water purification and reclamation. The process is designed to mineralize PFAS and other pollutants in a single step, overcoming the limitations of conventional treatment methods.

Key Benefits:

• Complete mineralization:

No harmful by-products are produced.

• Single-step process:

Rapid and efficient destruction of pollutants in less than 9 minutes.

• Insensitive to water quality: Effectively treats co-contaminants without requiring expensive pre- or post-treatment.

Key Features of the OXbyEL process:

1. Single-Step Mineralization: The process applies a high voltage exceeding the redox potentials of PFAS, enabling instantaneous defluorination and complete mineralization of PFAS, including long-, short-, and ultra-short chains, as well as precursors.

2. Continuous Flow Design: Water flows through the anode compartment in a single pass, providing for easy scaling with multicell, modular stack design.

3. Proprietary 3D Anode: The anode is made of a durable, high voltage electrocatalyst material that is 7–10 times less expensive than boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrodes.

4. Low Temperature and Pressure Operation

5. Treatment of Co-Contaminants

6. No Secondary Waste

7. Optional TDS Removal and Mineral Recovery
