It\u2019s the process of passing an electrical current using a specialised cell through a solution of water (H20) mixed with a small amount of salt (NaCL) &#8211; 1g of salt per litre of water in fact. The electrochemical activation breaks the compounds apart into their basic elements.<\/p><p>The reaction oxidises at the positively charged electrode (the anode) and reduces at the negatively charged electrode (the cathode). This makes the 100ppm of free available chlorine (FAC) solution with changed chemical properties; a powerful but safe disinfectant and cleaning solution. That\u2019s the ready to use solution as some of the models make a much higher concentration which is then diluted dispensed to 100ppm.<\/p><p>At the positive anode, the hydrogen and oxygen in the water reacts with the chlorine in the salt to produce the main, active substance called hypochlorous acid (HOCl), which is a powerful but safe disinfectant. This solution naturally wants to revert back to its original state by oxidising, for example, other organic matter. That\u2019s part of its effectiveness.<\/p><p>At the negatively charged cathode the sodium and chlorine in the salt combines with the\u00a0 oxygen in the water to produce a mild form of sodium hypochlorite.

This is proven to kill more than 99.99% of microorganisms, while also providing good cleaning results.\u00a0<\/p><p>Higher concentrations of hypochlorous can be achieved by lowering the pH of the solution so it\u2019s more acidic to around 5.5, but that means the proportion of sodium hypochlorite decreases, along with solution\u2019s cleaning properties too.

Repeat until clean.<\/p><p>For mopping \u2013 it\u2019s great for pre-soaked microfibre or spray mopping. And it\u2019s fine to spray alongside a bucket of hot water if that\u2019s what you\u2019re used to.<\/p><p>For floor machines \u2013 just add the solution and scrub away.<\/p><p>It\u2019s also great as a deodoriser \u2013 it\u2019s not designed to mask smells as it\u2019s pretty much fragrance free, but does kill the bacteria that causes the smell.
