Creating Pure Water without Chlorine

June 4, 2012

It's long been known that once injected in water, ozone is extremely effective at killing bacteria—50% more effective than chlorine and 3,200 times faster. No pathogen can survive ozone, nor can a germ adapt to it. The US Food & Drug Administration determined ozone to be a completely safe method of water decontamination in 2001. The problem is that producing the ozone and applying it to water was an expensive proposition. But Greeneng has developed technology to more cheaply produce ozone.

Greeneng's flagship product, Ozochef, is designed for commercial kitchens. “The system is designed for commercial kitchens, in restaurants, catering halls, hotels, and the like,” says Weissberg. “We install Ozochef at the source of the water in the kitchen, and the system processes all the water coming out of the kitchen taps. There's no need to change or add anything, so the kitchen remains germ-free. The system is fully controlled by an advanced controller which runs all actions and decisions such as when and how much ozone to produce, keeping the exact ozone dosage in the disinfected water, keeping water pressure constant, etc.”

Greeneng's other product, the greyOgreen system, is designed for use in hotels and other notorious water-wasting facilities. “New laws in Israel and other places require hotels, among other places, to recycle their water, and greyOgreen uses ozone to completely cleanse and recycle wastewater from showers, laundries and kitchens,” says Weissberg.
