Design Approaches Ozone Laundry Direct Water Injection Diffusion Charged Water Injection Recirculation & Reclaim
Technology - System Design Advantages & Disadvantages The Opportunity
Performance - EcoTex • Eliminates Microbes - Faster and more effectively than chlorine bleach, 99.99% kill rate with cold water • Saves Energy - reduces energy use up to 90% in washing and 20% in drying • Saves Water- reduces water usage by 30% -45%. • Saves Detergent and Chemical- makes existing chemicals work better • Increases Oxygen in Water- Open fibers & oxidize contaminants • Oxidizes Linen Soils- Soil more easily removed from wash water • Reduces Chemical Use- Up to 50% • Reduces Bleaching - Disinfects without chlorine bleach • Reduces or Eliminates Softening - By reducing sour chemical residue • Deodorizes - Breaking molecular bonds of organic and inorganic compounds, including smoke odors • Effluent Quality - Lowers chemical oxygen demand (COD) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) in wastewater, improving the environment • Textile Life and Quality - No chemical residue left on linen • Operational Efficiency - Reduces cycle time and number of steps in wash cycle for lowering associated laundry labor costs
Performance - The EcoTex Program Advantage Better Results with Less Steps
Performance - Microbe Menace Demands Disinfection • MRSA, antibiotic resistant bacteria, is significant cause of death and illness in healthcare and athletic facilities worldwide • Resistant to conventional hot water/bleach disinfection • Communicable via touch, water, bed linen, towels and clothing. • Eradicated with the use of ozone in wash water and whirlpools.
Markets - Facilities With Microbe Concerns • Hospitals • Nursing Homes • Athletic Facilities • Hotels & Motels • Prisons • Jails
Performance - Laboratory Test Results • Tests conducted at MicroSearch Laboratories, United Kingdom • Test linen contaminated with different bacteria, including MRSA and viruses prior to washing • Three wash methods tested for disinfection efficacy • Conventional Ambient Wash • Conventional Hot Water • O3 Ambient Wash • The different bacteria and viruses were tested separately
Wash Performance Comparison - (Bacteria) Conventional Ambient Temperature Wash No effect on Bacteria Conventional 167 degree F Hot Wash Selected bacteria survive wash Ozone Ambient Temperature Wash Bacteria-free in under 3 minutes
Performance - Conventional Hot Water Wash 75ºC/167ºF (Bacteria)
Performance - MRSA Culture Prior to Laundering MRSA Culture Prior to Laundering MRSA Culture after 40 degree C Laundering MRSA Culture after 40 degree C ozone wash

Case Study Apple Farm Inn San Luis Obispo, California
Apple Farm - Facility Background Hospitality - Inn and Suites 104 Rooms Laundry Room (2) 80 lbs. Commercial Washers (2) 120lbs. Commercial Dryers Average Loads per Day: 20 Average Pounds per Day: 1,600lbs
Apple Farm - Testing and Data Recording • Laundry Data Recorded for both Traditional and Ozone Formulas and Wash Cycles • GPM Water Totals • (2) Hot per Washer • (2) Cold per Washer • GPM Totals Recorded 3 days per Week • Chemical Controllers - Total Loads • Total Loads Recorded 3 Days per Week • Data from Traditional Washing Methods were Recorded for 1 Month • Data for Ozone Washing Methods were Recorded Month to Month for 6 Month period • Formulas Tested for pH Levels and Parts Per Million (PPM) in the Bleach Step
Apple Farm - EcoTex Installation • ECO200 - Ozone Generator: - 120VAC Main Power to System - 120VAC Input Signal from Washer to Activate System • Workhorse 8c - Oxygen Concentrator: • - 8scfh @ 90% Oxygen Concentration • - Powered by ECO200 • AeroQual 100 - Ambient Ozone Monitor: • - Powered by ECO200 • - Alarm Signal to ECO200 to deactivate ozone production if ambient levels exceed 0.1 PPM • EcoTex Mini-Diffuser: • - Installed into Sump of Washer
Apple Farm - Utility & Consumable Usage Cost per therm understated by 50% EcoTex Formula Totals
Apple Farm - Increased Efficiency • Labor Savings = Productivity Gains • > 30% reduction in labor cost required for the same level of laundry production > 30% increase in production with the same level of labor cost enabled the Apple Farm laundry facility to absorb the laundry from another Boutique hotel into its laundry operation, eliminating laundry labor at the other facility.
