Microbial load reduction device

Reducing the microbial load of water with pulsed electric fields, without adding chemicals and without causing undesirable changes in temperature, pH, or the main characteristics of water.

MCR | Microbial Count Reducer

Introduction of microbial load reduction device

The MCR device deactivates the microorganisms present in water using electrical pulses and Pulsed Electric Field (PEF) technology. The pulsed electric field disrupts the cell membrane, reducing the ability of microorganisms to repair and resume activity. This process is carried out without the use of chemicals and preserves the main characteristics of the water.

Applications and Key Benefits

System applications

Livestock and poultry slaughterhouses
Fish and shrimp farming workshops and pools
Urban treatment plants
Slaughterhouse and industrial unit chiller water
