- FINAL REPORT ON MICROBIOLOGICAL TESTING OF OXYGENATED/ PEROXYGENATED WATERS
Several bacteriologically inoculated challenge waters were treated with Water Star Inc. oxygen and peroxide cells at various currents. The challenge waters were spiked with bacterial load equivalent to 3X of what would be expected in drinking water. All cells that generated peroxide killed bacterial from 100,000 HPC to less than 25 in 40 – 60 hours. Lower currents (.02 amp) required the longest time while higher currents required shorter times. The cell that generated oxygen only (albeit there was some initial peroxide residual) exhibited initial microbial kill but quickly rebounded to bacterial proliferation. This may be due to preferential kill of anaerobes or the inability of the cell to maintain sufficient peroxide to counteract the catalyze generated by the microbes. This is likely a moot point since regulatory agencies do not differentiate among organisms. Rebound experiments on the peroxide generating cells show no growth in 7 days. Significant rebound was found after 60 days off line. Future work should include development of a protocol for water cooler testing. Most important findings are low current levels of peroxide equivalent to 0.01 amps provide bacterial kill and effective residual which may allow small, low cost cells for this application.
