General Information
The BWT Disinfecton is an on-site disinfection liquid producing system. Through the electrolysis of salt water, using
patented membrane cell technology, it produces a safe, cost effective, environmentally friendly nonhazardous
disinfection fluid. This unique disinfection fluid is produced under the registered name Neuthox®. Neuthox®
contains hypochlorous acid which is a highly potent oxidant. This means Neuthox® can be used as a biocide
whenever bacteria in water needs to be controlled.
Electrolysis in chemistry is the method, where an otherwise non-spontaneous process is driven by applying a direct
current. When creating Neuthox®, the machine utilizise this to split chlorine (Cl) from Sodium (Na), in ordinary
kitchen salt (NaCl).
Neuthox
Neuthox is a non-hazardous disinfectant. It has a neutral pH value of pH 5,5 - 8,5. The main components in
Neuthox is free chlorine, hypochlorous acid and sodium. For further information please read the Safety data
sheet for Neuthox.
The BWT Disinfection
The machine comes with a integrated water softener system to avoid lime scale in the cell. The production
process is carefully controlled by the build-in BWT controller/HMI to supply a uniform product with the
lowest possible residual chlorides, all the time!
