Prosperity to All with Harm to No One

Agriculture

The Inline Processor “enhances irrigation water” by causing the water to lose its ability to bond to itself and any foreign contaminates. The Processor does this by effectively stripping electrons from the water and foreign contaminates contained therein. Third party testing has shown that we are able to break water clusters, reduce surface tension and increase percolation by an average of 56%. The Inline Processor also neutralizes the negative effects chlorides, boron, calcium, magnesium and other waterborne foreign contaminates that are commonly known for reducing the water uptake in plants. The benefits of the Inline Processor apply to all water qualities, soil characteristics and plant types.

Naturally plants require water as a necessary ingredient to grow healthy and strong. Plants draw water up through their vascular tissue contained in roots, stems and leaves where it evaporates to the atmosphere, this is called the evapotranspiration process. This process is essential for plants to maintain temperature and optimum physiological function. Micro-nutrients in the soil can present themselves as a restriction to water uptake under normal circumstances. Processed water however easily flows around them and breaks them down into smaller micronutrients which are then transported through the root membrane and up into the plant.

The amount of water necessary to achieve maximum crop yield is reduced when the Inline Processor is used. Processed water is “enhanced water” that is more readily available to the plant at the time the plant needs it, reducing the overall stress on the plant. Plants irrigated with processed water are healthier higher quality plants that produce much greater yields. Additionally healthy plants are less attractive to insects as well. The yield increases our customers have reported to us of, 25 to 60% as described in our written and video testimonials available on our website are not uncommon. The typical return on investment is within the first year.

All of the benefits described above are achieved without any outside power source, user adjustment, consumable parts, or chemicals. The Inline Processor does not add any additional resistance to flow and is built to meet the line size and flow rate requirements of the Customer. The Eco1st Inline Processor is backed by our Customer satisfaction guarantee and 10 year limited manufacturer warranty.

Water treatment

Filtration systems of all shapes and sizes make use of pressure and a media or membrane to segregate out materials from a fluid such as water. The materials in the fluid are typically bound to the fluid at the molecular level. Pressure is used to break these bonds and to force the fluid to flow through the filter and beyond. The filter serves to break bonds and segregate material. As the material builds up on the filter the flow rate of the filter goes down. If the pressure is not increased at some point, the filter will require cleaning or replacement. In situations where there is an automatic backwash system, the system would go through a cleaning process intended to restore the filter to a higher flow rate. Reverse osmosis systems have two streams of water in them. The cleaned water that goes through the membrane is called permeate or product stream. The concentrate stream is an ongoing flow of water that moves across each membrane which is serving a cleaning function that carries away the particulate left behind on the membrane surface.

The Inline Processor technology is an in-line electrochemical process, which alters the charge properties of fluids, gasses and organic matter. Inline Processors are designed to effectively strip electrons from flowing fluids without use of chemicals, electricity or operators physical adjustment. It just sits in place, in-line with your water source, cleanly operating for years. This process enables water to lose its ability to bond itself to other foreign matter. The water remains in a positively charged state until such time that it regains enough electrons to restore its former balance-charge state and bonding nature. Our Processed water flows more easily through permeable and semi-permeable materials, including filters which reduces back pressure and lowers energy costs while increasing the quality and quantity of the product water.

The performance and efficiency of any filtration system is increased when an Inline Processor is used to pre-treat the fluid being filtered. The bonds between both the fluid and contaminates are broken reducing one of the functions of a filter. Stripping the electrons from the fluid causes it to temporarily loss its ability to bond to itself and to anything else including the filter media or membrane. Filters that remove particulate down to the micron sizes have extended filter life due to the elimination of bio-fouling and reduction of back pressure on the filter surface caused by the typical bond breaking process.

The process produces another concurrent benefit: Waterborne microorganisms do not survive the process. Live microorganisms, ie: Giardia Lamblia, Cryptosporida, E Coli Types, spore formers etc. entering our system, exit having been inactivated/killed by the process of stripping electrons from all sources within and from the flowing water. Studying the process, samples have proposed two possible causes for this effect:

1. The electron stripping process destroys the microorganisms DNA.

2. The electron transport and exchange mechanism of the microorganism becomes destroyed.

Our Process inactivates/kills microorganisms without the use of chemical or outside power source and simply eliminates all costs, risks and by-products normally associated with chemical disinfectant or algaecide use.

Fuel Enhancement

The Inline Processor serves this application by increasing the Btu or caloric output of fuels while reducing the combustion emissions or byproducts. All fuels liquid, gaseous or solid are typically in a neutral charge state which basically means they have equilibrium between total negative and positive charges. Our processor removes electrons from these fuels and causes the fuel to become positively charged prior to the addition of air.

Fuel requires air for combustion to take place. The air serves to re-supply the required electrons to the fuel since air is electronegative and gives up electrons readily. This electron sharing process causes the air to more uniformly bond to the fuel which results in these process benefits. The net result is you can use less fuel to do the same job while reducing combustion byproducts.

Still in testing phase of development

Oil & Water Separation

Over 85% of the U.S. oil wells are now classified as marginal wells - a well whose production has slowed to 10 barrels a day or less. In many cases the material being pumped from these wells consists mainly of water and minerals with small percentages of oil. It is critical that oil operators are efficient as possible at extracting the oil these wells produce in order to stay profitable.

Current methods being used to extract oil mainly consist of pumping the material in a tank where it is stored to separate. Then gravity does the job of separating these materials in the tank based on density and size, this is referred to as Stokes Law. This process has been used for decades however this process does have downsides. Waiting for gravity to separate materials is very time consuming and once the oil is extracted the operators are still left with the daunting task of disposing the water left over. The water that is left behind is usually corrosive and full of bacteria. Oil operators typically treat this water with expensive chemicals and filtration systems before it meets the standards to be safely injected back in the earth through discharge wells. The injection of this water creates a roadblock with the high pressure it puts on their pumping systems.

When installing the Eco1st Inline Processor, oil operators will see a myriad of benefits that will improve the efficiency of their operation. Oil operators will notice a dramatic decrease in the time it takes to separate materials. The Inline Processor will separate the materials more thoroughly, leaving oil operators with higher quality oil cut and helps them extract every last drop. The Inline Processor is also effective at killing 100% of bacteria in the water, and will help eliminate corrosion. Oil operators will also notice less pressure being put on their pumps when injecting the disposal water back into the earth.

The Inline Processor accomplishes all of this by stripping electrons from all materials that flow through it. Electrons are the small negative electric charge that bond molecules together; an easy analogy would be that electrons are like the cement in between bricks. After the Inline Processor has stripped all the electrons, the individual materials no longer have a way to bond with one another. The results include all materials separating much more rapidly, and thoroughly. In order for bacteria to survive in water it needs electrons, without electrons bacteria cannot perform the normal surface exchange it needs to survive and immediately dies.

All of the benefits described above are achieved without any outside power source, user adjustment, consumable parts, or chemicals. The Inline Processor is built to meet the line size and flow rate requirements of the Customer. The Eco1st Inline Processor is backed by our Customer satisfaction guarantee and 10 year limited manufacturer warranty.
