The brand name Aquavolta is composed of®the Latin term for water (Aqua)
and the name of the inventor of the battery, Alessandro Volta. It stands for
electro-activated water. In Germany, it was originally referred to as
electrolyte water, later as "active water". In English, it is often referred to as
"reduced" or "ionised" water. Electroactivated water is produced with the
help of a water ioniser through so-called diaphragm electrolysis.
The characteristic of AquaVolta®is that it has a negative electrical voltage
with respect to a measuring electrode, a so-called negative redox potential.
The lower the redox potential, the higher the readiness of the water to give
up electrons. For every volt0,018 (18 millivolts) of lower redox potential, this
readiness doubles.
AquaVolta®has a lower redox potential than tap water or bottled mineral
water by up to 300millivolts.700
Due to its high readiness to release electrons, AquaVolta is ®also called
antioxidant water. However, it is not only used by doctors for therapy, but is
also establishing itself as a modern everyday drink due to its pleasant taste.
From today's scientific point of view, the content of dissolved hydrogen gas
(H2) is mainly responsible for the antioxidant power of AquaVolta®. In
addition, the pH value of the part of the water intended for drinking is also
raised.

Hydrogen - The basic concepts
There is no doubt that hydrogen gas is the most interesting form of alternative energy of the future.
Because kg1 of hydrogen puts kWh/kg33,33 on the road, neither petrol (12 kWh/kg) nor natural gas
(max. 13.1 kWh/kg) can keep up. Hydrogen, with the symbol H for hydrogenium ("the water
producer"), is the most common element in the universe. It represents %75 of the total mass of our
solar system. But on our planet Earth it is rather scarce. Only % of 0,12the total mass consists of
hydrogen. Most of it is bound as 2HO as "energy-less" water in the oceans. Water,2HO, is hydrogen
gas H2that has already been burned by oxygen. This happens, for example, when sugar from food is
converted into energy. Hydrogen therefore provides energy not only for fuel cells in cars, but also for
cells in the body. The hydrogen atom H (also called hydrogen radical), consists only of a positively
charged nucleus, the proton, which is orbited by a negatively charged electron. This smallest of all
atoms is also called
"nascent" hydrogen: This means "hydrogen in the birth phase", because an H atom does not
stay alone for long, but then forms with a second H atom what we usually call hydrogen, H 2or
"molecular" hydrogen, an electrically neutral gas.
Hydrogen gas H2is often confused with the hydrogen ion H+. This corresponds to an H atom without
an electron, in short it is a single proton. Positively charged hydrogen ions are the measure of "acid".
They are formed, for example, by splitting off a hydroxide ion (OH-) from water (2HO). If there are
more hydroxide ions than hydrogen ions (H+ions) in an aqueous solution, it reacts alkaline; if the H+
ions (protons) predominate, it reacts acidic. A proton is only about 1/2000th lighter than an H atom,
but its chemistry is completely different.
Negatively charged hydrogen ions H-(hydride ions) also exist theoretically. However, they are so
unstable that they only occur permanently in compounds. Our hydrogen gas infusion machine deals
exclusively with the electrically neutral H gas, i.e. in no way with an ion.

Water is a super solvent for electrically polar
substances, but not for the non-polar
hydrogen gas H2. CO2dissolves much
better, but is also x22 as heavy.
To produce more enriched hydrogen water, you have to proceed in a similar way as we know it
from soda fizzy drinks. You take 100% H-gas2and increase the pressure on the water. To build up
a hydrogen concentration of mg/l3 at a temperature of C30O, for example, experience shows that
you need at least bar2 pressure and a certain time, which also depends on which other minerals,
trace elements and gases are already dissolved in the water to be enriched. With higher pressure,
the process is faster.
Another trick for acceleration is to increase the contact area between water
and gas. This is usually achieved by injection nozzles or swirl mechanics and
accelerates the enrichment process 4 - 7 times.
The whole process is subject to the so-called "Henry's law". According to this law, the gases
equalise according to a fixed constant between the gas outside the water and the dissolved gas
until a corresponding equilibrium occurs. The purer the hydrogen gas, the faster it happens. How
fast it ultimately goes, however, also depends on the type of water and its temperature.

HIMs are designed to produce hydrogen-rich water "in flow" by infusing
hydrogen gas without a long waiting time. They emerged in the mid-
2010s and are sometimes called "hydrogen servers". The PEM
electrolysis cells used to produce the hydrogen gas are usually very
similar. Hydrogen concentrations between and 1,1ppm1,7 (=mg/l) were
achieved with them. They were particularly popular in the USA. In
Europe, they were not very popular because the water ionisers that
were widespread here offered similar hydrogen outputs and also made
the water more basic, which the HIMs could not do.
Through an extended patent, the Korean market leader Huanth
improved the 2019performance of its HIMs by incorporating a
pressure pump with complex valve control of the water flow. This is
called a "PRESSURE HIM" in professional circles.
