Our industry currently has one standard for shower filtration: NSF/ANSI Standard 177, which measures the reduction of free available chlorine. (Free available chlorine is the concentration of residual chlorine present as dissolved gas, hypochlorous acid, or hypochlorite ion, not combined with ammonia or other compounds that are less readily available for disinfection).

An oily water separator (OWS) (marine) is a piece of equipment specific to the shipping or marine industry. It is used to separate oil and water mixtures into their separate components. This page refers exclusively to oily water separators aboard marine vessels. They are found on board ships where they are used to separate oil from oily waste water such as bilge water before the waste water is discharged into the environment. These discharges of waste water must comply with the requirements laid out in Marpol 73/78.[1]

The primary purpose of a shipboard oily water separator (OWS) is to separate oil and other contaminants that could be harmful for the oceans. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) publishes regulations through the Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC).[2] On July 18, 2003, the MEPC issued new regulations that each vessel built after this date had to follow. This document is known as MEPC 107(49)[3] and it details revised guidelines and specifications for pollution prevention equipment for machinery space bilges of ships. Each OWS must be able to achieve clean bilge water under 15 ppm of type C oil or heavily emulsified oil, and any other contaminants that may be found. All oil content monitors (OCM) must be tamper-proof. Also whenever the OWS is being cleaned out the OCM must be active. An OWS must be able to clear out contaminants as well as oil. Some of these contaminating agents include lubricating oil, cleaning product, soot from combustion, fuel oil, rust, sewage, and several other things that can be harmful to the ocean environment.[4]



The bilge area is the lowest area on a ship. The bilge water that collects here include drain water or leftover water from the boilers, water collecting tanks, drinking water and other places where water can not overflow. However, bilge water doesn't just include water drainage. Another system that drains into the Bilge system comes from the propulsion area of the ship. Here fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluid, antifreeze, solvents, and cleaning chemicals drain into the engine room bilges in small quantities. The OWS is intended to remove a large proportion of these contaminants before discharge to the environment (overboard to the sea).

The water removed by the OWS flows to oil collecting spaces. There can be two stages. The first-stage filter removes physical impurities present and promotes some fine separation. The second-stage filter uses coalescer inserts to achieve the final de-oiling. Coalescence is the breakdown of surface tension between oil droplets in an oil/water mixture which causes them to join and increase in size. The oil from the collecting spaces is drained away automatically or manually. In most modern ships, the oil from collecting spaces is drained away automatically.[6]

A gravity plate separator contains a series of oleophilic plates through which the contaminated water flows. The oil in the water coalesces on the underside of the plate eventually forming droplets before coalescing into liquid oil which floats off the plates and accumulates at the top of the chamber. The oil accumulating at the top is then transferred to waste oil tank on the vessel where it is later discharged to a treatment facility ashore. This type of Oily Water Separator is common in ships, but it has flaws that decrease efficiency. Oil particles that are twenty micrometers or smaller are not separated. The variety of oily wastes in bilge water can limit removal efficiency especially when very dense and highly viscous oils such as bunker oil are present. Plates must be replaced when fouled, which increases the costs of operation.[15]

With its broadly positioned brand portfolio, the Katadyn Group is considered a leading provider of products and complete solutions for the outdoor, travel, and camping sectors. The range includes products for individual water treatment as well as outdoor stoves and clever accessories. Furthermore, the product range extends from delicious, freeze-dried meals for every taste to practical hygiene and care products for health protection.

The EVO E-3000 is the best of both worlds, by combining the benefits of a whole house water filter and salt-free softener into one compact, easy-to-install system. Specifically designed for you to have worry-free, great-tasting, and conditioned water from every tap in your home without the negative effects of salt and hard water scale. Big bulky tanks that require expensive installs and take up much-needed floor space are a thing of the past.

The roughly 40 pounds of salt that a traditional salt-based water softener needs each month must go somewhere when it produces brine water. The discharge of the intensely saline solution can be costly and also harm the environment. A negative impact on groundwater can damage collection basins and increase the likelihood of impacting the freshwater supply. In addition, it inhibits the reuse of wastewater, and it increases the cost of recycling to remove the high sodium and chloride content. The environmentally-friendly salt-free water softener saves you money and does not discharge any brine or harm the planet.

Too much salt is bad for almost any living thing. For example, goldfish cannot tolerate water from a salt-based softener. However, pets and people can accept it when the content remains within safe guidelines. On the other hand, a salt-free water softener avoids salt issues altogether. As a result, gardens thrive on the water, lawns welcome it and pets enjoy lapping up the naturally tasting liquid.

Salt-free water softeners are environmentally friendly and offer a lot of advantages such as no water waste, they require no electricity, no slimy feel, no maintenance, and leave the healthy beneficial minerals in the water vs salt-based softeners that waste hundreds of gallons per backwash (up to 3X weekly), introduces sodium into the water and environment, leaves the water slippery/slimy, uses heavy salt bags, electricity and requires maintenance. There are many cities throughout the US that have already banned the use of salt-based water softeners.

Filter changes are a simple 10-minute operation and require no additional tools. The 5-micron pleated sediment filter and carbon block filter are easily replaced once a year for optimal performance. The eSoft salt-free softener cartridge does not require replacement due to the fact that it is a physical alteration, not a chemical alteration.

The differences between the way salt-based and salt-free softeners work accounts for a feeling of cleanliness instead of slipperiness. In the salt-free process, water passes through a filter that modifies the minerals into crystals. Thus, they do not stick to hair, skin, pipes, or glass panels as hard water scale. On the other hand, the salt-based process changes the hard water into soft water by removing the minerals and creating a slimy feeling.

All Evo whole house water filters / salt-free softeners come with a Limited Lifetime Warranty from manufacturer defects. This warranty covers all E-1000 / E-2000 / E-3000 whole house filter and salt-free softener systems to the original purchaser. Evo warrants to the original purchaser and is not transferable. The system must be maintained in normal working conditions and does not cover natural disasters, improper installation, misuse, alterations or modifications, accidents, freezing, or acts of God (such as flood, earthquake, fire, hurricane, lightning, or other natural disasters). Evo Water Systems retains the right to void warranties it finds violates its warranty coverage.

The 5-micron pleated sediment filter, carbon block filter, and UV lamp are easily replaced once a year for optimal performance. The eSoft salt-free softener cartridge does not require replacement due to the fact that it is a physical alteration, not a chemical alteration.

All of our air purifiers have been tested to comply within the ozone safety requirements set forth by California Air Resources Board. Our MinusA2 emits zero ozone on all speeds once you have turned off the Negative Ion Generator. An amount of 0.002 ppm (parts-per-million) was recorded at low fan speed of our MinusA2 with the negative ionizer turned on. That is 25 times less than the 0.05 ppm maximum ozone concentration safety standard set forth by the California Air Resources Board. For our BioGS 2.0, an amount of 0.001 ppm (parts-per-million) was recorded with negative ionizer turned on. That is 50 times less than the 0.05 ppm maximum ozone concentration safety standard set forth by the California Air Resource Board.
