Technical Presentation November 2006
Who Are We? We are the leading provider of Next Generation Water Disinfection Solutions We bring a revolutionary disinfection technology Hydro-Optic Disinfection (HOD): • Environmentally friendly • Simple to use and maintain • At a low cost of ownership • Really does the job…
Company Profile • Founded in March 2003 • Raised $30M to date from leading investors • HQ in Israel – home to renowned innovation in high-tech and water technologies • 50 employees and growing • Seasoned water sector management • Interdisciplinary team of top scientists and engineers • Comprehensive Intellectual Property Portfolio • Proven the technology in industrial installations
Water Disinfection Technologies Today Advantages Issues Chlorination Relatively cheap; Widely used and accepted Disinfection by-products; Taste in food; Ineffective against Cryptosporidium & Giardia; Creates issues for downstream processing - membranes Ozonation Effective; Accepted for some industries Disinfection by-products (Bromates); Hard to control with water quality flux; Difficult working environment; Lots of hidden costs Membranes Reliable; Wide acceptance Expensive to buy & operate; Stops microbes only above certain threshold; Sensitive to chlorine; Backwash treatment and biofilms breed hidden costs over time Heat exchange (pasteurization) Reliable; Wide acceptance Extremely high operational cost; Intensive maintenance Conventional UV Environmentally Friendly; Acceptable Microbial Kill 1-3 log range; Deposits & fouling of quartz sleeves; High maintenance; Questionable reliability; Issues with monitoring and control
Out-of-the-water light sources 1 Air cooled dry chamber 2 Dual sensor configuration for accurate monitoring 3 Central quartz chamber traps light photons 4 HOD’s Out-of-the-Box Design 1 1 4 2 3 3 Light beams represent how the fiber optic Total Internal Reflection principle works
Technology Principle • “The Liquid Wave Guide“Same “Total Internal Reflection” principle as in optical fibers
Reflector Air Block Air Cooling MPHI* UV Light Source Quartz Tube AIR AIR AIR AIR Operation Principles HOD system cross section WATER Lamp status monitors Water transmission monitor Quartz Window * Medium Pressure High Intensity
The Atlantium “Total Kill” Solution Microbial contamination in test point of dairy water system
Conventional UV Many lamps, light cannot be uniform Microbes may escape UV
WATER The HOD Advantage I: Performance and Reliability Uniform dose distribution HOD System Non-uniform dose distribution Conventional UV Heat generates sleeve deposits; Requires frequent maintenance
WATER The HOD Advantage II: Simple Maintenance HOD System 4 minutes replacement; No system downtime Conventional UV Risk of glass and mercury droplets into the water Cumbersome lamp & sleeve replacements; System down
WATER The HOD Advantage III: Monitoring and Control HOD System Direct measurement of UV source Additional detector for water turbidity Conventional UV Measuring UV light through water (light, sleeve fouling, and water)
The HOD Advantage III: Monitoring and Control State-of-the-art set up, control & monitoring
The HOD Advantage III: Monitoring and Control Configure validated dose
The HOD Advantage III: Monitoring and Control Automated EPA reporting
HOD PR – 20 model HOD R – 200 DL model HOD R – 200 SL model R-Series models
R - models covering flow rates from 10 – 300 m3/hr Industrial and Municipal markets: Overview:Markets & Products • Industrial • Food & Beverage • Aquaculture • Power plants • Pharmaceuticals • Other • Municipal • Drinking water • Water Re-use • Desalination
Product Water FireWall Process Water Pasteurization Industrial Markets:F&B Applications
HOD “FireWall”The ideal solution for the Food & Beverage industry • Inactivate all harmful microorganisms • Maximize plant water quality • Minimize the use of chemicals and • avoid residual carcinogenic substances • Save on electricity, chlorine and labor costs • ROI in less than one year
“HOD FireWall” at work:TNUVA E.T. – One of the World’s Largest Dairies Microbial contamination in test point of dairy water system External View of Atlantium’s Facility 3 x 100 m3/hr Atlantium HOD Units Note Far Sampling point – 500 m’ down the line from the HOD system
Pasteurization • HOD PR – 20 unit • Validated 9 Log reduction • Significant savings on energy and operation costs Up: Conventional Pasteurization system Down: Atlantium’s HOD PR - 20 unit
TOC & THMs Reduction • Efficient way to reduce TOC & THMs: • Creation of “radicals-saturated” zone • All water are exposed to “radicals-saturated” zone • Continuous generation of radicals • Utilization of entire HOD reactor’s chamber for chemical reaction • Reduces chlorine usage to a minimum • Cost Effective: • Eliminated the need for PAC and UF Membranes • Reduces O&M costs
Case Study:Site installation, Dresden – Germany HOD effect on average chlorine presence in tested water
Fish Hatcheries • Increases fish growth rates • Increases survival rates • Minimizes drugs, chemicals and antibiotics • Improves FCR (Fish Conversion Rate) • Environmentally friendly
Case Study:Pinar Fish Hatchery • Increase in survival rates: • Sea Bream: 100% • Sea Bass: 50% • Reduce Antibiotics use by 90% • Reduced full time maintenance person • ROI in less than 4 months • Customer ordered 2nd unit
Summary • Leader in innovative water disinfection solutions: • Introducing Hydro-Optic Disinfection (HOD) technology • A Revolutionary primary disinfection method • Dozens of successful industrial installations • Comprehensive Intellectual Property (IP) portfolio • Seasoned management, academic and R&D staff • Registered and pending patents worldwide • Operations in Europe, US and Asia – over 20 countries worldwide • Partnering with reps/ distributors and water companies for sales, installation, support, distribution, and R&D projects
