6. General Features of EWP
• Less pretreatment than Ion Exchange or RO
• No chemicals
• Purification varies with flow
• One pass process - 80% purify
• Cells in series for higher feed salinity to maintain
purification
• Recoveries of 80% to 96% (with waste recovery)
• Cells never replaced, citric acid PM cleaning
• Voltage or flow of cell can be varied to dial in taste
7. Sample Cell and Power Supply
• Power supply 1.5 VDC Flow
in/out
• Cell ½ gpm net flow
• 80% purification at
1,000 ppm TDS
• Recovery at 80%
• Power consumption

20. Value Proposition
• EWP has
– Better taste
• due to dial for taste feature and no salt in your water
– Healthier
• due to removing more primary pollutants than any other
technology—softener doesn’t remove any
– Lower cost (OPEX and CAPEX)
• Features such as 80% recovery, Citric Acid Cleaning, small
power use, no hassle warranty and service program
– Easier to operate
• due to solid state design, on-board TDS monitor
– Peace of Mind
• for removing all of the primary pollutants, having a salt-less
softened water and no hasslbe warranty and service program
– Green Technology
• Due to no salt discharge
