New Product: Predator Bacteria Filter Machine Tool Coolant

Predator Bacteria Filter Element - copper/zinc fiber media
-	Remove / Reduce Chlorine
-	Biological control in machine tool coolants, fountains, ornamental ponds, and cooling towers.
-	Remove / Reduce Hydrogen Sulfide.
-	Helps to remove / reduce metals such as lead, mercury, chromium, arsenic, nickel, and iron.
-	Particle filtration efficiency of 20 microns.

Predator Bacteria Filter Applications
-	Domestic water treatment
-	Intake water (well, river, lake, municipal)
-	Well water treatment
-	Machine tool coolants
-	Heat transfer fluids
-	Industrial process fluids
-	Industrial waste liquids

Predator Bacteria Filter Element Construction
-	Manufactured with high purity copper-zinc fibers.
-	Alloy form, electrons flow freely in the presence of an electrolytic solution (water).
-	Transferring of electrons from one atom or molecule to another, oxidation/reduction occurs.
-	Copper-zinc alloy has a high Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP).
-	Electrochemical and catalytic potential of the copper-zinc allow provides all the needed energy to facilitate treatment.
-	Environmentally friendly and can be recycled.

Electrochemistry
	An electrochemical cell aka a galvanic cell is an arrangement of two electrodes in appropriate electrolytes. Such a cell is capable of producing an electric current as a result of a chemical reaction within the cell.

	Zn(s) + Cu2+ ? Zn2+ + Cu(s) There is oxidation and reduction taking place here

Electrolysis - Electrolytic cells
	Two electrodes, generally inert metals, are placed in a solution of an electrolyte, or a molten metal salt and a current is passed through the solution or the molten salt
	Cations, (+) ions, are attracted to the cathode, the negative electrode in this case. Anions, (-) ions, are attracted to the anode, the positive electrode in this case.

Microorganisms

Predator Bacteria Filter treatment media can help to control microorganisms in:

Transfer of electrons in the oxidation/reduction process will create an electrolytic field that will kill most microorganisms.

Media can cause peroxides and hydroxyl radicals to form. These localized peroxides and hydroxyl radicals can disrupt the microorganisms.

Hydrogen Sulfide

Hydrogen sulfide - gas that gives water or process fluids a distinctive odor (rotten eggs).

Hydrogen Sulfide occurs in groundwater as a result of sulfur reducing bacteria.

In machine coolants and process fluids, decomposing bacteria colonies can cause hydrogen sulfide gas.

Predator Bacteria Filter media transfers an electron to the hydrogen sulfide reducing it to cupric sulfide.

The insoluble cupric sulfide will attach to the filter. The insoluble materials can easily be removed from the filter with a clean water rinse.

Chlorine

Injected to control biological activity in many systems.

Residual chlorine can have a negative effect on water quality and treatment equipment.

Chlorine will breakdown expensive membranes and exchange resins.

Predator Bacteria Filter reduces chemical usage in the treatment for chlorine.

Iron

Predator Bacteria Filter elements help to combine dissolved oxygen and soluble ferrous iron.

Result is insoluble ferrous hydroxide and ferric oxide.

These insoluble particles attach to the filter and are easily removed with a clean water rinse.

Heavy Metals

Predator Bacteria Filter provides a cost effective way to augment treatment strategies for the reduction and removal of heavy metals.

Water soluble cations are removed by the copper-zinc media.
