Aquentium Technology Eliminates Salmonella

PALM SPRINGS, CA, August 31, 2011

The Aquentium non-chemical ozone sanitation equipment is designed for improved food safety and water safety standards both domestically and internationally. The goal at Aquentium is to help prevent contamination of food such as the recent outbreak of salmonella in eggs. The Aquentium non-chemical ozone process can also extend the shelf life of fresh food which means higher profits for food processors and less waste for the consumer.

Salmonella bacteria can survive several weeks in a dry environment and several months in water]; thus, they are frequently found in polluted water, contamination from the excrement of carrier animals being particularly important. Aquatic vertebrates, notably birds and reptiles, are important vectors of Salmonella. Poultry, cattle, and sheep frequently being agents of contamination, salmonella can be found in food, especially in milk, meats and sometimes in eggs which have cracks.

About 142,000 (reported) Americans are infected each year with Salmonella enteritidis from chicken eggs, and about 30 die. The shell of the egg may be contaminated with Salmonella by faeces or environment, or its interior (yolk) may be contaminated by penetration of the bacteria through the porous shell or from a hen whose infected ovaries contaminate the egg during egg formation. Nevertheless, such interior egg yolk contamination is theoretically unlikely. Even under natural conditions, the rate of infection was found to be very small (0.6% in a study of naturally-contaminated eggs and 3.0% among artificially- and heavily-infected hens). A recent analysis of death certificates in the United States identified a total of 1,316 Salmonella-related deaths between the years 1990 to 2006. These were predominately among older adults and those who were immunocompromised.

"The uniqueness of the Aquentium technology is that it is over 50% more effective than chemicals and over 3,000 times faster acting than chemicals. Ultimately, Aquentium believes that we have better technology to combat not only salmonella, but also e-coli, listeria and a variety of other bacteria or viruses," stated Aquentium CEO Mark Taggatz.

The Aquentium Water Treatment and Cleaning Antimicrobial System is an ozone-based cold water technology that meets and exceeds the microbial reductions commonly attained with conventional hot water and chemical applications. Benefits of the Aquentium Cleaning Antimicrobial Systems, listed below, support a rapid return on investment. Ozone is also safer for the workers since there are no chemicals to handle. Ozone is generated from Oxygen and is non-toxic.

Up to 100% Reduction of Hot Water

Up to 100% Reduction in Sanitizer Chemical

Up to 80% Reduction in Degreasers Foaming Agents

Up to 68% Reduced Water Volume

Can Be Used In-Process

Direct Product Treatment (RTE) with No Labeling Requirements

Designed for surface cleaning and sanitation, as well as direct food product treatment, the Aquentium cleaning antimicrobial systems provide multi-surface cleaning and sanitation for wash down food processing equipment; walls and floors; drains and chutes; tanks, barrels and totes; etc. Application designs for existing CIP system conversions, and attachments for application in enclosed containers/tanks, are also available.

In addition to purification of air and water, the Aquentium ozone equipment extends the shelf life of fresh food naturally - without the use of chemicals. The use of ozone in the food industry is approved by the USDA and FDA and is also approved for organic certification. The uniqueness of the Aquentium equipment is that ozone is over 50% more effective than chemicals and over 3,000 times faster acting than chemicals. Ultimately, Aquentium believes that we have better technology to combat e-coli, salmonella, listeria and other bacteria or viruses than what most other companies are currently using.

Other industries that the Aquentium non-chemical sanitation equipment can be utilized include: Restaurants, Commercial Office Buildings, Healthcare Facilities, Schools, Hotels, Entertainment Venues, and Veterinarians
