OriginClear Inc., Los Angeles, completed development and testing of AOxPlus, a patent-pending method to produce hydroxyl radicals in large quantities to treat highly-contaminated wastewater.
The highly-reactive hydroxyl radical is said to deliver more than twice the oxidation, or cleansing power, of chlorine without the toxic byproducts. Based on laboratory testing, OriginClear engineers estimate that the new AOxPlus can produce 10,000 times more hydroxyl radicals than the original AOx technology.
