Copper Silver Ionization

Copper-silver ionization is a water disinfection technology that uses the release of copper and silver ions into the water to control and prevent the growth of harmful bacteria, such as Legionella. This method is particularly effective in large water systems, such as those in hospitals, hotels, and cooling towers. How it works: - **Copper Ions: Copper ions disrupt the cell walls of bacteria, preventing them from multiplying. - Silver Ions: Silver ions penetrate bacteria cells, interfering with their DNA and enzymatic functions, effectively killing them. This method is an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional chemical disinfectants like chlorine, as it does not produce harmful byproducts. Copper-silver ionization is effective over a wide range of water temperatures and pH levels, making it a reliable solution for maintaining water safety in complex systems.
