ESIL Technology
The process
Several decades ago, the Canadian inventor Brian Cook pioneered the development of ESIL, leveraging the established concept of “electrolysis.” Through his innovation, Cook created a continuous flow process capable of transforming water from various contaminated sources into safe drinking water. The fundamental principle behind this process involves using electricity for water disinfection.
The ESIL water technology employs specialized equipment comprising multiple series of electrolytic cells housing anodes and cathodes. A low-voltage direct current (DC) is applied as water consistently flows through a network of holes in the cathodes. Within the ESIL cell, bacterial, parasitic, and viral organisms are effectively eradicated.
The application of electrical current induces a range of reactions within the water. Heavy metals become inert and neutral, while synthetic organic compounds such as dioxins and PCBs are efficiently shattered and broken down. The resulting inert particulates are easily eliminated through standard filtration methods.
It’s important to note that although the process effectively removes contaminants, it preserves the naturally occurring mineral salts crucial for maintaining the health benefits of drinking water.

Water Structure
Our unique process restructures water thereby producing the following features in drinking water:
1. Micro Clustering enables the easy absorption of water and a high level of hydration.
2. High level of Oxygenation and Ionization that contains millions of natural antioxidant bubbles called
hydroxyl ions, which are free radical scavengers.
3. Negative ORP (Oxidation-Reduction Potential) which is beneficial to our body by decreasing oxidation and aging.
4. Retains Natural Minerals found in the water which are beneficial to our health.
5. Maintains a Healthy pH balance of 7.4–7.6.
Removes contaminants
Our treatment eliminates all bacterial, parasitic, and viral organisms in the water, including E.Coli, Giardia, and Cryptosporidium in one step.

Heavy metals such as arsenic, lead, mercury, chromium, and hexavalent chromium are rendered inert and neutral. Synthetic organic compounds (dioxins and PCB’s) are effectively shattered and broken down.
Also removed are Chlorine and Fluoride along with pesticides and fertilizers when present in the water. The inert particles formed after the process are easily removed by 5-micron sediment filters which do not capture the still-suspended minerals.
What is retained are beneficial, naturally occurring soluble minerals such as Calcium, Potassium, Magnesium,
Sodium and Zinc while removing the harmful contaminants.
