  • Publication number: 20150208591
    Abstract: A systemic crop protection method using, as a systemic biocide, oxidative radicals which are electrolytically produced in mineral salt-containing, plant nutrient-rich water and are filled into devices to carry out injection in the phloem of a plant, bush, or tree. Bacteria, viruses, fungi and yeasts are eliminated by: 1. producing the biocidal oxidative radicals and breaking up the water molecule clusters into two-molecule to three-molecule clusters in an aqueous, mineral salt-containing nutrient solution using electrolysis; 2. filling, under pressure, electrolyzed phyto-physical nutrient solution and biocidal oxidative radicals along with compressed gases, nitrogen, CO2, and/or argon into the injection devices; 3. placing injection cannulae on plants or trees and with the help of a drill, screwing the injection cannulae into the phloem of the plants; 4. grafting on the injection devices; 5. automatically, slowly and constantly administering the injection to the phloem of the plant; 6. repeating as required.

  • Publication number: 20150203378
    Abstract: Disclosed is a coffee-tea extraction machine comprising one or a plurality of electrolytic cells that include two or more diamond electrodes or corresponding suitable stable metal electrodes or corresponding suitable stable metal electrodes for producing slightly alkaline water having a pH of 8.2 to 8.6 and for electrochemically breaking up the water molecule cluster chains of 14 to 18 molecules into clusters containing two to three molecules. Said coffee-tea extraction machine is characterized in that the solvency and extractive capacity of the brewing water in the coffee-tea machine triples or quadruples and the resorption potential through intestinal cell membranes doubles or triples.

  • Patent number: 8689738
    Abstract: Feeding method and production technology of a vegetarian feed for carnivorous fish prepared from Spirulina and Chlorella algae that are produced by cell proliferation in production tanks in electrolyzed water with chlorine-neutralizing sodium thiosulfate and are subsequently dried, pelleted and packaged. The fish feed can be employed without the fish having diarrhea. As a result, the water in fish breeding tanks does not become immoderately eutrophic and at the same time the daily weight gain of the fish is not affected. An optimum daily growth rate and a fish flesh quality can be achieved without the use of animal and fish-based proteins in the fish food ration. The fish food is also inexpensive and ecologically sustainable and ethically acceptable, since it contributes to the rescue of the remaining fish stocks in waters worldwide.

  • Publication number: 20100192987
    Abstract: A method and technical execution, for the chemical and residue-free cleaning, hygienization, disinfection and odor neutralization of surfaces, materials, and objects by means of a high-pressure cleaning device and an electrolysis generators using electrolyzed cold or warm water, with the aid of oxidative groups, characterized in that the method, in combination with high pressure and oxidative radicals produced by electrolysis from salt ion-containing water, in total group concentrations of at least 35 ppm and higher, is able to not only clean surfaces, materials, and objects, but also to disinfect them, and is able to, by means of cold oxidation, in the form of ultrafast superoxidation, to eliminate 99.9% of microorganisms such as viruses, gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, yeasts, fungi, algae and protozoa organisms and the like, without forming resistances in the microorganisms or pathogens.

  • Publication number: 20050244546
    Abstract: In order to extend the shelf life of perishable agricultural products and/or food, said agricultural products and/or food items are placed in a packaging container (10), a modified atmosphere is created in the packaging container (10), and the packaging container (10) is closed. The modified atmosphere is created in such a way that it has an increased concentration in oxygen compared to normal ambient air. Conclusively the invention provides for a method and a packaging which extend the shelf life of delicate agricultural products and/or food.
