• Electrochemical Activation: a New Trend in Applied Electrochemistry
  Background. In 1802, 30 years before M. Faraday discovered the electrolysis laws, Russian academician V. V. Petrov discovered, through using a high-voltage galvanic battery he had developed, that emission of electrolysis gases near the electrodes is accompanied by acidification of water near the anode and alkalization of water near the cathode.



• Evolution of technical systems for electrochemical activation of liquids
  The article describes technical systems for electrochemical activation of liquids created by the authors, which are presented in chronological order according to the inventions’ priority.



• Efficacy and Safety of Liquid Chemical Germicides Applied for All-levels Disinfection (Sterilization), Pre-sterilizing Treatment.
  Nowadays a range of disinfectants is essentially increased. There are over four hundred biocidal agents for pre-sterilizing treatment, sanitation and all-levels disinfection used in Russia



• WAYS OF CREATING EFFECTIVE AND SAFE ANTIMICROBIAL LIQUID AGENTS AND EVOLUTION OF PUBLIC PERCEPTION OF DISINFECTION MEASURES
  Discussed in the article are the questions of a choice of liquid antimicrobial preparations. Theoretically, ANK anolyte has advantages over stable organic disinfectants.



• ECONOMIC PREREQUISITES FOR APPLYING IN HEALTH INSTITUTIONS STEL ELECTROCHEMICAL DEVICES FOR SYNTHESIS OF WASHING, DISINFECTANT AND STERILIZING SOLUTIONS
  A tendency towards higher incidence of communicable diseases in Russia observed in the early 1990s is still here today



• APPLICATION OF ELECTROCHEMICALLY ACTIVATED SOLUTIONS IN THE TRAUMA AND ORTHOPEDIC CLINIC
  For several years, CITO clinical departments and laboratories have been using electrochemically activated solutions for disinfection and sterilization. These solutions are synthesized by the device STEL-10H-120-1 (catalytic neutral anolyte). The results obtained are promising for the prevention of nosocomial infections. Practically, no other disinfectants are used at the hospital.



• DISINFECTION OF AIR-CONDITIONERS WITH ANOLYTE SOLUTION
  The disinfection effect of anolyte was investigated by means of irrigating the internal surfaces of air- conditioners. The disinfectant was found to be highly efficient in its action on microorganisms including spore-forming bacteria. The conclusion about expediency of anolyte application to disinfect household air-conditioners without coal filters was made.



• DISINFECTING MILITARY HOSPITAL SURGERY UNIT WITH NEUTRAL ANOLYTE
  IN TODAY’S health care, a burning issue is prevention of nosocomial infections affecting 20-30% of patients depending on the type of medical facility department and accounting system



• PREVENTION AND THERAPY OF NOSOCOMIAL INFECTIONS USING ELECTROCHEMICALLY ACTIVATED SOLUTIONS

• Issues of chemical composition and operating properties of chlorine based inorganic liquid chemical germicides
  More then hundred years chlorine-based inorganic compounds have been used as chemical germicides as well as consistent investigations of influence of hypochlorous acid and hypochlorites on human and environment have been going on



• ELECTROCHEMICALLY ACTIVATED SOLUTIONS IN VETERINARY PRACTICE
  Unipolar electrochemical activation (ECA) of liquids is based on well-known electrolysis reactions. But the final result of electrolysis of concentrated solutions is pure ready-to-use product, while electrochemically activated are weak (up to 5 g/l) aqueous salt solutions or common drinking water, which contains up to 1 g/l of different salts



• APPLICATION OF ANK ANOLYTE IN CASES OF INTESTINAL INFECTION
  Among infectious diseases in young agricultural animals causing the highest economic damage, the intestinal infections take the leading place



• Effect of electrochemically activated systems on malt enzymes
  Over 20 years have passed since the time when the electrochemical activation effect (ECA) was discovered. Water and weak saline solutions subjected to treatment in the anodic or cathodic chambers of a diaphragm-type electrolyzer convert into a meta-stable state, which is different from a stable one in that they have anomalous values of physical and chemical parameters, for instance, those of рН and oxidative-reductive potential (ORP)



• Application of ECA solutions and enzyme preparations for hop extraction
  Today, because of intense competition on the Russian brewing market, many enterprises search for ways to reduce unit costs. A possible way to solve the problem is to lower the cost of hop and end-products of its processing.



• ELSOR Process to Extract Hydrogen Sulfide from Natural Gas
  The main principle of ELSOR process is the absorption of hydrogen sulfide from gas by alkali produced in the electrochemical reactor from a sodium sulfate aqueous solution and subsequent regeneration of the hydrogen sulfide-saturated absorbent with acid produced by the same electrochemical reactor.



• WAYS TO IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY AND QUALITY OF PROCESSES OF PREPARING OIL FOR REFINING USING ELECTROCHEMICALLY ACTIVATED WATER
  A compulsory step of preparing oil for refining procedure is dewatering and demineralization, i.e. removal from it of water, mineral salts and mechanical admixtures, since they may negatively affect the work of oil-refining factories (ORF)



• Disinfection of drinking water: problems and solutions
  The basic criteria of quality of drinking water which were formulated in middle of the twentieth century, consist of the following: drinking water should be safe in epidemic relation, it should be harmless in it’s chemical structure and have favorable organoleptic properties.



• STEL DEVICES: HISTORY AND NEW HORIZONS
  For the first time the name of the plants destined for electrochemically activated antimicrobial and washing agents synthesis – that is, STEL (descended from the words STerility and ELectro-chemistry) – was heard in the year of 1989.
