Aquentium Technology Eliminates and Reduces Virus and Bacteria – Including Influenza
Aquentium, Inc. (OTCBB: AQNM) a manufacturer of non-chemical sanitation and water purification equipment has announced that the company’s ozone technology eliminates or reduces many major forms of virus and bacteria without the use of harmful chemicals.
“Ozone has the ability to eliminate or reduce most known bacteria and other common organisms that are found in the food and beverage industries,” stated Aquentium, Inc. CEO Mark Taggatz.
How Ozone Destroys Pathogens
Ozone eliminates or reduces pathogens by destroying the cell wall. Pathogens cannot develop resistance to ozone as they can to antibiotics, so there is no danger of developing superbugs through the use of ozone.
Organisms Destroyed by Ozone Include:
BACTERIA
Achromobacter butyri NCI-9404
Aeromonas harveyi NC-2
Aeromonas salmonicida NC-1102
Bacillus anthracis

The uniqueness of the Aquentium equipment is that ozone is over 50% more effective than chemicals and over 3,000 times faster acting than chemicals. Ultimately, Aquentium believes that we have better technology to combat e-coli, salmonella, listeria and other bacteria or viruses than what most food processing companies are currently using. The technology can also be used by beverage processors, hotels, restaurants, hospitals, and schools.
The Aquentium non-chemical sanitation equipment is designed for both cost savings and improved safety standards for food and beverage processors, hotels, restaurants, schools, and hospitals. For many years, businesses have used chemicals to treat food products in an effort to eliminate or reduce harmful bacteria. With the Aquentium technology, companies have a safer and cost effective solution.
The goal at Aquentium is to help prevent contamination of food. The Aquentium technology can also eliminate chemicals and hot water during the sanitation process. The Aquentium non-chemical process can also help extend the shelf life of fresh food products such as seafood, fruits, vegetables, poultry, beef and pork. This increased shelf life means higher profits for processors and less waste for the consumer.
Ozone is also safer for the workers since there are no chemicals to handle. Ozone is generated from Oxygen and is non-toxic. With the Aquentium ozone equipment, a food and beverage processor does not have to stop processing to do plant sanitation. This increases plant production. Furthermore, processors can expect an ROI in less than 12 months using the Aquentium equipment.
Ozone is also approved as food additive by the FDA and USDA.
Ozone Compared with other Sanitizers
Ozone is the strongest disinfectant available, and is more than 3,100 times faster than chlorine in killing bacteria.
No harmful by-products are produced by ozone disinfection. In contrast, chlorine disinfection creates carcinogenic by-products.
Ozone dissolved in water completely reverts to regular oxygen within 20 minutes, so there is no residue. For this reason, disinfection must always be accomplished with ozone water fresh from the water line.
Ozone dissolved in water is completely safe and rinsing your hands in ozone water will sanitize better than using any chemicals or soap and water.
Ozone is created instantly by the Aquentium disinfection system, so there are no more chemical sanitizers to buy.
Ozone also works best in cold water, reducing energy costs for heating water.
Automatic Operation
As soon as a cold water line connected to the Aquentium disinfection system is turned on, ozone is generated immediately, providing the best disinfection possible. When the water is turned off, the ozone system automatically shuts down. As long as the ozone disinfection system is powered, operation is completely automatic.
