EMERALD AQUACHLOR devices synthesize from water and table salt a highly effective and safe mixed oxidant solution for the disinfection of drinking water, seawater, wastewater and swimming pool water in any place and quantity.
Within 1 month of water disinfection with oxidant solution (instead of hydrogen peroxide), biofilms were removed from the inner surface of the tube.

76 units of AQUACHLOR 500 device have been disinfecting all drinking water in Balakovo City, Russia, since 2006. The devices produce more than 900 kg of oxidants per day in FAC* terms and disinfect 350,000 m3 per day.
5 units of AQUACHLOR 1000 devices in Aktau, Kazakhstan, have improved the quality of municipal wastewater disinfection and purification (16,000 m3 per day), operating on the new EMERALD TURBO technology. The total capacity of the devices is 120 kg per day of oxidant solution in FAC terms.
Water disinfection by an AQUACHLOR 500 device is used in a 2,500 m3 volume Olympic swimming pool in Minsk, Belarus. Purified water does not dry skin, does not irritate mucous membranes and is well tolerated by small children. No algae growth on the pool deck. No chlorine odor. No permanent pH adjustment is required.
Basic criteria | Values | Notes |
---|---|---|
Disinfection costs of 1 m3 of water (at the chlorination rate of 1 g/liter) | $ 0.000485 | Water disinfection costs is at least 1.5 times cheaper compared to chlorine (Cl2), 3 times cheaper compared to sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and 10 times cheaper compared to ultraviolet (UV). |
Power consumption per 1 kg of oxidants (FAC), no more than | 4 kW | |
Table salt consumption per 1 kg of oxidants (FAC), no more than | 2 kg | |
No replaceable or fast-wearing parts | Yes | The main components are durable and resistant to wear and tear. |
Average production cost of 1,000 kg of oxidants (FAC | $ 485 | At least 1.5 times less than the average cost of chlorine gas sold in cylinders and 2.5 times less than the cost of sodium hypochlorite in FAC terms. |
Average payback period (ROI) | 2 years | |
Average device lifespan | 12 years | In total: 10 years of profit + preserving the Planet’s ecology! |
