4 Page3 HypoX It is produced through Electrolysis of saline water, And it contains, Hypochlorous acid (HOCl), Hypochlorite (OCl), Ozone (O3), Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2), Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

5 Page4 Chlorine Reactions / WATER 1- Gas chlorine dosing Gas chlorine dosing amount is determined by the need of chlorine application/m3/water and quantity of Rest Chlorine/m3/Water. Need of chlorine application in water is necessary for two main purposes: a- Ammoniac; When free chlorine is added to water, it becomes integrated with Ammoniac that is ready in ready status in the environment; then sequentially the following chemicals are formed NH4 + HOCl = NH2Cl +H2O + H+ Monochloramine, NH2Cl + HOCl = NHCl2 + H2O Dichloramine, NHCl2 + HOCl = NCl3 +H2O Trichloramine their quantities vary depending on the temperature, ph and time. b- Organic and inorganic microorganisms, Phenol, Amines, Aldehydes, and Ketones react with chlorine.

9 Page8 About HypoX Questions and Answers 1- What is the compound of HypoX? HypoX Compound is theoretically known as Hypochlorite and Ozone. Its chemical analysis in practice is carried out with FAC Active Chlorine assignment. 2- How does HypoX disinfect Drinking Water without causing Chlorine smell? HypoX disinfects drinking water using a different process. In conventional chlorination, in addition to known microorganisms, the most important reaction that causes taste and smell when binding with chlorine is that of Chlorine-Ammoniac which forms mono-, di-, tri-chloramines. HypoX, works like Ozone, does not cause taste and smell since it does not produce chloramines.

10 Page9 3- How does HypoX disinfect Drinking Water with its low TTHM* level? HypoX is fast and effective, 10 times than Chlorine, and 100 times than Hypochlorite. It works like ozone, and for that reason it is used in little quantities, that is, dosing amount is determined only with the purpose of seeing the rest amount. Low dosing leads to low TTHM* level (%30 50 lesser in comparison to gas Chlorine). 4- Is Hypox Disinfection affected by the TOC* level of drinking water? Organic acids are the ones which make the most of important contribution that increases the TOC level in drinking water, and they increases the total TTHM ratio. Reduced TOC during purification causes the TTHM ratio to decrease. With HypoX, the TTHM level is %50 lesser than the TTHM level that is observed when Chlorine is used. TTHM* Total Trihalomethane (ppb)

11 Page10 5- Does Hypox Disinfection change the alkalinity of drinking water? HypoX disinfection does not change depending on the alkalinity of drinking water. 6- Does HypoX usage have any effect on Water Purification Systems? HypoX works as ozone does, but it works even more effectively because of the other oxidants in its compound. Consequentially, it leads to low Alum and Polymer usage, decreases Turbidity, and increases water flow. 7- Does HypoX destruct microbes that gas Chlorine cannot? HypoX destructs organisms such as Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts, Giardia muris cyst, Legionella pneumophila and others that are difficult to be eliminated as well as those microbes that cannot be destructed by using normal doses of Chlorine in practice. 8- What is the duration of use for HypoX? HypoX starts to be actively used after production and storing. TOC* Total Oxygen Consumption

12 Page11 9- How does HypoX CHLOR-OZONE Generators work? Water and Electricity connection is made, the salt tank is filled with salt, and production starts when energy comes. Product analysis is evaluated with FAC* Free chlorine analysis. FAC Free Chlorine amount determines other oxidants, and for that reason high level FAC Free Chlorine (7000ppm) is preferred. 10- What are the inlet water specifications of HypoX CHLOR-OZONE Generators? Normal Water connection is made, and Water Softener produces water with 1-2 FS hardness that is necessary. 11- What are the salt specifications of HypoX CHLOR-OZONE Generators? Either Vacuum Refined Salt or Good-Washed-up Raw Salt can be used. 12- What is the life of electrolysis and what is Guaranties for HypoX? Electrodes are re-activated after 5 years in normal running conditions. FAC* Free Available Chlorine

13 Page What happens if the inlet water specifications of HypoX CHLOR-OZONE Generators change? Water softener prevents impurities such as Ca and Mg to accumulate on electrodes by softening the water. Transparent plastic is used in the inside of electrolysis in order to make it possible to see whether there is any accumulation in case that the softener does not work. 14- What should be the inlet water specifications of HypoX CHLOR-OZONE Generators? Either normal using that is able to be softened or drinking water can be used. Hardness [Ca+Mg] Iron [Fe] < 10 ppm. < 1 mg/lt. ph 6-8

14 Page What should be saline water specifications for HypoX CHLOR-OZONE Generators? Salt [NaCl] > 2 %. Manganese [Fe] < 10 mg/lt. 16- How can HypoX Product Quality be measured? In practice, it is measured with FAC Active Chlorine assignment. Standard DPT* method can also be used. When the amount of Active Chlorine increases, other oxidants in the solution increase at the same ratio. * N.N diethyl-p-phenyenediamine

15 Page What is the difference between HypoX and Clorel Generators and Products? Clorel Generators are the generators that produce Sodium Hypochlorite with low ph [ph8,5]. The product is 10 times faster and more effective than Commercial Hypochlorite which contains high level ph [ph13]. HypoX Generators, on the other hand, produce not only Sodium Hypochlorite, but also Ozone and Other Oxidants, and act as Ozone. The product is 100 faster and more efficient than Commercial Hypochlorite. So, it is faster and more effective than Chlorine and Hypochlorite. 18- Is HypoX dangerous? As a product, HypoX, does not belong to the dangerous product class, and for that reason, it doesn t require any measure to be taken.

16 Page What are the areas of usage of HypoX CHLORE-OZONE Generators? HypoX Generators can be used for; - Municipal DRINKING WATER Disinfection, - Disinfection in Small, Medium, or Large SWIMMING POOLS, - VEGETABLE-FRUIT Disinfection, in Food Industry, - HOSPITALS, Cooling Tower Water Disinfection. 20- What is the Salt Filling-up Period for HypoX CHLORE-OZONE Generators?

34 Page33 Swimming Pool / HypoX Disinfection/Advantages 1- HypoX /Exceptionally Fast and Efficient Swimming pool water disinfection is carried out for users of pools with the aim of preventing algae formation. The amount of Chlorine that is used for 1 user is 5 times more than the need of 1m3 water per day. Continuous Chlorination that is carried out with conventional methods are only able to have effect on a limited number and kind of microorganisms, and only after a significant period of contact time. Microorganisms that are carried into the pool by users are destructed depending on the time they contact with chlorine. HypoX, on the other hand, disinfects very rapidly, and its 10 times more efficient than Chlorine and 100 times more efficient than Hypochlorite. It destructs all microorganisms that cannot be destructed by Chlorine but by Ozone or Chlorine Dioxide, in a very short period of time. It Works like Ozone, but its effect is long like Chlorine. 2- HypoX /Chlorine Smell In conventional Chlorination, in addition to known microorganisms, the most important reaction that causes taste and smell when binding with chlorine is that of Chlor-Ammoniac which forms mono-, di-, tri-chloramines. HypoX, working like Ozone, does not cause taste and smell even when used in high quantities since it does not produce chloramines.

35 Page34 3- HypoX /Stable ph Commercial Sodium Hypochlorite includes caustic [10 Gr/Lt.], and it causes the ph level in the pool to increase. Since the ph level of HypoX is almost equal to the amount of used water [ph8.5], ph balancing becomes easier and ph oscillations decrease as well as Chemical substance and acid additions. 4- HypoX /Blenching of Swimming suit and Dresses HypoX makes all its disinfection effect with the help of Ozone and Chlorine-based Oxidants together with Chlorine. In this way, it prevents blenching that is seen on swimming suits. Commercial Sodium Hypochlorite, on the other hand, causes out-of-control and permanent fabric blenching because of Caustic and Chlorine. 5- HypoX /Safe Water It is necessary to destruct all harmful microorganisms quickly especially in pools of general use and in public pools. Commercial Sodium Hypochlorite and Gas Chlorine destructs some of these microorganisms easily [Fecal coliforms,viruses]. Cryptosporidium, Legionella pneumophila on the other hand, cannot be destructed by Chlorine and it can only be captured with microfiltration. However, general design of swimming pools does not include microfiltration. 6- HypoX /Clear Water Turbidity in swimming pools is a case when Commercial Sodium Hypochlorite and Gas Chlorine is used, including Calcium Hypochlorite and Cyanuric acid based dusts, and for that reason, chemicals are used for caution. When using HypoX, dosing is increased depending on the level of turbidity in the pool and crystal water is obtained in this way. It does not require to use any chemical substance additions.

44 Page43 Disinfection Applications and /Alternatives 1- Gas Chlorine; Because of many negative effects and the sanctions such as CAA*-RMP*-USEPA* that started to be applied with the aim of preventing these negative effects, Countries of EU and USA have started to escape from gas chlorine usage for Water and Waste Disinfection. The foremost and the most important reason of this escape is TTHM** that arises in gas chlorine applications. Even if chemicals such as Ozone and Chlorine Dioxide are used for disinfection, Chlorine gas remained as a prior choice with its cheap and easy-to-apply character. 2- Commercial Sodium Hypochlorite; Sodium Hypochlorite ph 13.0, which is sold for commercial uses, contains 150 Gpl. Chlorine with 12% concentration. Fast Chlorine Loss and transportation cost are seen as the biggest disadvantages. The most important reasons of chlorine loss of Sodium Hypochlorite are; High Chlorine concentration, High Temperature, High storing time, High level of metal ions, TTHM** = Total Trihalomethane (ppb) CAA*=The implementation of the clean air; RMP*= Risk management plan; USEPA*=The Storage of Hazardous chemicals.,

45 Page44 Chlorate formation in Sodium Hypochlorite;3ClO - =2Cl - - Commercial +ClO 3 Chlorate formation in Sodium Hypochlorite and chlorine loss related to this speeds up because of high storing temperature. Sodium Chlorate after 30 days of storing time, Hypochlorite % Temperature C Chlorineloss % Chlorate ClO 3 Testing Time/Day Ozone; Ozone is a very efficient disinfectant for Water and Waste disinfection. There isn t any finding which shows that it causes TTHM* formation in drinking water. It is quite an expensive system when compared to other disinfection systems. In order to obtain good results with Ozone disinfection, ozone dosing density should be arranged conveniently, and a minimum of 5 minutes contact time should be provided. Additionally, chemically effective corrosions form on iron and some other SS stainless steel. High concentrations can be dangerous and might require measures to be taken. Use of Ozone does not eliminate the use of Chlorine or Hypochlorite. 4- Clorel Onsite Sodium Hypochlorite production ; Low ph [ph 8.5-9,0] Sodium Hypochlorite is 10 times more efficient and faster than Commercial Sodium Hypochlorite. It is ideal for drinking water disinfection. Its rest chlorine control is stable. It contains important characteristics of HypoX, however it does not contain Ozone and Oxygen based oxidants except Hypochlorite.

59 Page58 T.R. ACIBADEM UNIVERSITY FACULTY OF MEDICINE DEPARTMENT OF MEDICAL MICROBIOLOGY March 29, 2010 Tested Samples: The efficiency of the products submitted by Kemisan to our laboratory for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the products e.g. Commercial Hypochlorite*, Clorel and Hypox on bacteria from different groups and on a yeast was examined. Method: Efficiency tests were held in accordance with TS EN40 and in scope of these tests; Escherichia coli ATCC (gram negative fermentative basil), Staphylococcus aureus ATCC (gram positive bacterium) Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC (gram negative non-fermentative basil) and Candida albicans (yeast) were used. During the tests, the dilutions of the disinfectants between 10-1 and 10-7 were prepared, and microorganisms were added into these dilutions provided that each millilitre contains Following the waiting periods of 5 to 30 minutes at normal conditions under room temperature, the convenient neutralizing solution was added and a path at solid curd power was made. After two days of incubation at 37 C, the colonies formed by microorganisms increasing in numbers were observed. * Commercial Hypochlorite: Standard Sodium Hypochlorite

60 Page59 Results: Escherichia coli The results are seen in the attached tables. According to these results, while Clorel and commercial equivalent product destructed Escherichia coli in 1ppm dilution within 5 minutes, when waited for 30 minutes, 0,1ppm dilution of commercial equivalent product and 0,01ppm dilution of Clorel was sufficient to destruct this microorganism. This means that Clorel in comparison to the commercial equivalent product has proved the same efficiency against Escherichia coli within 30 minutes at 10 times more diluted level. It was observed that the efficiency of Hypox on Escherichia coli was higher. While it was observed that during 5 minutes of incubation, Hypox with 0,1ppm dilution destructed Escherichia coli, it was found that even a dilution of 0,0001ppm of this product was sufficient to destruct the bacteria when waited for 30 minutes more. In this test study, the dilutions at lower levels were not included. Staphylococcus aureus In the Efficiency experiment that was made on Staphylococcus aureus, while Clorel was able to destruct this organism within 5 minutes with 10ppm dilution, the commercial equivalent product had to have a dilution of 100ppm to be able to destruct this organism within 5 minutes. When waited for 30 minutes, the dilution of 0,1ppm was sufficient both for Clorel and commercial equivalent product in order to destruct this microorganism. It was observed that the efficiency of Hypox was higher on Staphylococcus aureus as well. Within 5 minutes of incubation, the dilution of Hypox of 0,1ppm was able to destruct Staphylococcus aureus, when wait for 30 minutes, even the dilution of 0,0001ppm was able to destruct this bacterium. In this study, dilutions at lower levels were not examined.

61 Page60 Pseudomonas aeruginosa In scope of the efficiency test that was made on Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Clorel destructed this organism within 5 minutes with 10ppm dilution; the commercial equivalent product had to have 100ppm dilution in order to be able to destruct this organism within 5 minutes. When waited for 30 minutes, it was sufficient both for Clorel and the commercial equivalent product to have 0,1ppm dilution to be able to destruct this organism. It was observed that the effect of Hypox was very high on Pseudomonas aeruginosa. During 5 minutes of incubation, even Hypox of 0,0001ppm dilution was able to destruct the bacteria. In scope of this test, the dilutions at lower levels were not included. Candida albicans In the Efficiency experiment that was made on Candida albicans, Clorel and commercial equivalent product destructed this organism within 5 minutes with the dilution of 0,001ppm. When waited for 30 minutes, the level of dilution of Clorel that was able to destruct the organism decreased to 0,0001ppm while the level of dilution of the commercial equivalent product that can destruct the organism remained as 0,001ppm. It was observed that the efficiency of Hypox, on the other hand, was very high on Candida albicans as it was on Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Within 5 minutes of incubation, even Hypox of 0,0001ppm dilution was able to destruct this yeast. In scope of this test, the dilutions at lower levels were not included.
