Best Value or Best Overall Cost
Whatever you call it, it's what Purate® provides
Overall Cost
A chlorine dioxide system entails capital spending for the equipment and ongoing costs for the feed chemicals. An astute customer will evaluate their options based on the combined cost of equipment and chemicals. And in doing so, Purate® will be the obvious choice.
Customers find that even a free chlorite generator is NO bargain when they
add up the total costs. Purate® offers savings each and every day. Purate®, the best technology is also the best overall value.

First - Get Quality Equipment
SVP-Pure generators using Purate® technology are unmatched in quality of design, construction and reliability. Sure, there are inexpensive chlorite generators on the market. But years of hassle with poor equipment are the result. Eka offers an array of generators from Basic Design to Advanced Design, each with quality and reliable construction.
Second - Look at Chemical Costs
Chemicals are an ongoing cost and in many cases, the annual cost for feed
chemicals will exceed the purchase cost of a generator. When it comes to chemical
costs, Purate® has a technology and economic advantage over chlorite based systems.
Here's how:
Purate® technology is sodium chlorate based, as compared to sodium chlorite, like
competing processes. Why does that matter? Sodium chlorite producers make sodium
chlorite form sodium chlorate. It involves an expensive process of producing
chlorine dioxide and then converting to sodium chlorite so that it can be
reconverted to chlorine dioxide at the users site. Eka simply produces the
chlorine dioxide on site for sodium chlorate, a sizable economic advantage.

How Does Purate® Do It?
Easy - 1 Step vs. 3 Steps
Purate® Process
|
Step 1. |
Purate® (containing sodium chlorate) produces chlorine dioxide on site. |
Chlorite Process
|
Step 1.
|
Sodium chlorate is reacted with chemicals at the producers
site to make chlorine dioxide. |
|
Step 2. |
The chlorine dioxide is reacted with hydrogen peroxide and sodium hydroxide at the producers site to make sodium chlorite. |
Step 3. |
The sodium chlorite is converted back to chlorine dioxide on site by reacting with more chemicals. |
Simplicity = Cost Savings |
