New Tech Filtration Systems
What We Do:
Our patented process and filter system removes water from dielectric fluids using electrolysis.
How It Works:
Add a The filter is hooked up to the lubricating reservoir. Lubricating fluid passes through the filter which contains anode and cathode stainless steel plates which are charged with an appropriate voltage. As the lubricating fluid passes through these plates the water is eliminated through decomposition by separating the hydrogen and oxygen which is then released through a vented reservoir.
This test was done on 5 gallons of hydraulic oil (Fram AGRIC-5G)
The samples below are in order as they appear on the study:
1. Brand new oil sample - Lab Results 20.8 parts per million (ppm)
2. Sample after adding 4oz of water and mixing - Lab Results 2365 ppm
3. Sample after 16 hrs of running oil with 4oz of water - Lab Results 23.3 ppm
4. Sample after 6 additional hrs - Lab Results 21.3 ppm
Total run time was 22hrs with our working prototype unit.
What Happened to the Hydrogen and Oxygen?
It travels with the oil back into the vented reservoir/tank and is released into the atmosphere.
Is It Safe?
Is venting hydrogen into the atmosphere a problem? Is there a buildup of hydrogen gas? The article below written by Christian Tae explains in depth any questions you may have.
Just to give you an idea of how much hydrogen is produced during this process.
If a 500-gallon tank of oil were to be filtered and it contained 500 ppm it would only produce 4.58oz of hydrogen and would be released into the atmosphere over an extended period of time.
1 ppm = .00016035860569078 oz of water per gal
500ppm = .080179302845391 oz of water per gal
500-gallon tank of oil with 500ppm water = 40oz of total water
The amount of hydrogen extracted from 40oz of water is 4.58oz
