Ensuring Drinking Water quality in any remote location

Based on the water electrolysis principle, OXISTICK produces, from small water volumes, either drinking water or a more concentrated chlorinating solution to disinfect larger volumes or hard surfaces.
OXISTICK uses the chlorides naturally present (concentration has to be above 20 ppm Cl- in the water to be treated) to generate free chlorine under the form of hypochlorous acid. Hypochlorous acid is a strong oxidizer known for the preventing the spread of bacteria, viruses, algae and molds.
It is also efficient against many pathogens, such as E. Coli or Legionella Pneumophila.

Production of a Disinfecting Solution

OXISTICK can also produce a 0.5% Chlorine solution (10 litres/10 hours) to treat up to 50m3 using only 30g of salt (NaCl) per 10 litres.
​OXISTICK can be powered either by a 12V car battery or a solar panel and is easily deployable on site and adaptive to the available water quality.
It does not require any specialised skill to operate, and needs very little maintenance.

​OXISTICK - 2 types of Production :
     Disinfected drinking water immediately from buckets of filtered water

• No salt needed, using the natural chlorides from the water
• 20 ppm chlorides concentration is required

     Disinfecting solution to treat large volumes of water

• 10 hours to produce 10 litres of 0.5% chlorine solution to treat 50 m3
• ​Using 30g salt (NaCl) per 10 litres​

Bluesense™ OXISTICK

BlueSense™ emergency relief solutions have been successfully used by Non Governmental Organizations and armies to provide a sustainable access to drinking water to local or displaced population impacted by natural disasters.

BlueSense™ products were used in Haiti after the 2010 earthquake and in the Philippines after the 2004 tsunami.
