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.

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.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for increasing the oxygen content of water have been shown and described. A volume of water is passed between the electrodes of an electrolytic cell, a portion of the volume of water converting to dissolved oxygen. A desired level of dissolved oxygen is selected, and the number of times the volume of water must flow through the electrolytic cell to ensure that the volume of water contains the selected percentage of dissolved oxygen is also selected. The volume of water is then forced through the cell the selected number of times, such that the volume of water contains the desired percentage of dissolved oxygen. The electrolytic cell is in fluid communication with a tank and a pump, the pump drawing the volume of water from the tank and forcing it through the electrolytic cell and back into the tank. The volume of water is thereby recirculated through the electrolytic cell by the pump for the selected number of times.

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.

Abstract: A hand portable water purification system includes a portable electrolytic cell to increase the content of oxygen and chlorine in water to be purified. The electrolytic cell includes a housing and a set of electrodes. The housing provides physical support and spacing for the electrodes and protects the electrolytic cell from damage during handling and storage. The hand portable apparatus has a system control circuit that converts an external source of power to a direct current (DC) voltage to energize the electrolytic cell. The combination of the electrolytic cell and the system control circuit is small enough and light enough to be carried in a person's hand. In one embodiment, the portable electrolytic cell is mounted near the bottom of a container with one-half to five gallon capacity mounted either permanently or detachably.

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.
