John J. Orolin has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20140166498
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems and methods for purifying fluids, such as water. In some embodiments, the water is first filtered by known filtering methods, such as by reverse osmosis or distillation. Once a flow is sensed in the fluid, electrolyte is added to the filtered fluid. Oxygen and hydrogen gas is then formed in the electrolytic filtered fluid via electrolysis to provide a treated fluid.

  • Publication number: 20040004007
    Abstract: A noncaustic system for cleaning and controlling bacteria growth in fluid supply lines, containers, or on objects. The system includes an electrolytic cell generating aqueous solutions of supersaturated oxygen via electrolytic chemistry. The electrolyzed or treated water has both cleaning and antimicrobial effects when dispensed in fluid supply lines having beverage deposits, a layer or coating of bacteria, yeast, microorganisms or polysaccharide layers formed therein. The present invention further increases the germicidal activity of the above system toward microorganisms that may adhere and grow on the interior surfaces of the fluid supply line.

  • Publication number: 20030066761
    Abstract: An apparatus for decontamination contaminated groundwater in-situ by increasing the quantity of dissolved oxygen in the contaminated groundwater and generating reactive initiators to remediate the contaminated groundwater. The apparatus includes a submersible pump, an electrolytic cell, and a distribution chamber attached to an outlet of the cell. The distribution chamber is vertically oriented and longitudinally-extending from the outlet of the cell. As the groundwater flows across charging plates of the cell, some of the molecules break into their component parts of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. A selected vertical length of the chamber provides a resident time for the fluid allowing a majority of the gaseous oxygen to transition to dissolved oxygen.

  • Publication number: 20030019764
    Abstract: An under the counter water treatment system. Water from an outside supply source, such as a municipal water line, is provided to user's home. A prefilter to remove sediment, organic compounds, and certain pollutants is first provided. After the prefilter, the water enters a reverse osmosis system which includes an osmotic membrane. The reverse osmosis membrane filters out impurities and very small particles to provide highly purified water. The outflow of the reverse osmosis filter is stored in a water tank. Water is removed from the tank by releasing an appropriate valve when the user wishes to drink the water. When the water exits the tank, it passes through a mineral supplement which adds minerals to the water beneficial to human or animal consumption. It then passes through an electrolytic cell having a plurality of plates.

  • Publication number: 20020168418
    Abstract: A water treatment system for treating water for use in improving the intestinal flora of livestock and poultry. The treated water for livestock and poultry use provides water with increased dissolved oxygen such that when the treated water is ingested, the livestock and poultry have increased lactic acid producing bacteria and decreased coliforms in the intestine. Increasing the molecular oxygen content in the intestine through providing the birds with treated water containing higher an increased level of dissolved oxygen alters the balance of flora in favor of the beneficial bacteria, thereby improving bird health and performance. By reducing the numbers of strict anaerobes in the gut of the growing bird, the risk of infectious disease, and hence morbidity and mortality are reduced. This allows the beneficial bacteria to proliferate thereby enhancing the digestion and absorption of available nutrients to the bird.

  • Patent number: 6391184
    Abstract: An apparatus for decontamination contaminated groundwater in-situ by increasing the quantity of dissolved oxygen in the contaminated groundwater and generating reactive initiators to remediate the contaminated groundwater. The apparatus includes a submersible pump, an electrolytic cell, a chlorine filter, and a distribution chamber. The distribution chamber is vertically oriented and longitudinally-extending from the outlet of the cell. As the groundwater flows across charging plates of the cell, some of the molecules break into their component parts of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas. A selected vertical length of the chamber provides a resident time for the fluid allowing a majority of the gaseous oxygen to transition to dissolved oxygen.

  • Patent number: 6358395
    Abstract: An under the counter water treatment system to treat water from an outside supply source, is provided. A prefilter to remove sediment, organic compounds, and certain pollutants is first provided. Then the water enters a reverse osmosis system including reverse osmotic membrane which filters out impurities and very small particles providing highly purified water, and is stored in a water tank. When the water exits the tank, it passes through an electrolytic cell having a plurality of plates. This electrolytic treatment creates oxygen in the water, inserts free electrons into the water, and improves the taste and affinity of the water for accepting other minerals. After passing out of the electrolytic cell, the water may pass through a final treatment stage after which it is provided at an outlet tap for consumption by an end user.
