Hypochlorous acid generator for Livestock breeding industry

Due to In the modern animal husbandry industry, environmental hygiene, disease prevention and control and water quality safety are the key factors to determine the efficiency of breeding. Therefore In recent years, hypochlorous acid generator, an efficient, safe and multifunctional equipment, is gradually becoming a revolutionary tool for farm management, showing significant advantages in space deodorization, environmental disinfection and livestock drinking water treatment.

Due to hypochlorous acid generator is a high-tech equipment that produces aqueous hypochlorous acid (HClO) solution by electrolysis of dilute saline or hydrochloric acid solution.Therefore hypochlorous acid is a naturally occurring potent oxidant and one of the main substances used by white blood cells in the human immune system to kill pathogens. Compared with traditional chlorine-containing disinfectants, hypochlorous acid has the following characteristics:

• High efficiency and broad spectrum: can kill bacteria, viruses, fungi and spores in a few seconds
• Safety and environmental protection: decompose into water and trace salt after action, no residual toxicity
• Mild and non-irritating: no irritating to skin and mucosa at appropriate concentrations
• Low cost: the raw materials are only salt, water and electricity, and the operation cost is very low

Malodors such as ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in farms not only affect the health of animals, but also lead to a decline in production performance.

How to apply:

• The hypochlorous acid solution was sprayed on the animal house space through the atomization system
• Add to rinse water to clean floors and walls
• Direct treatment of waste temporary storage area

Mechanism of action:
At the same time hypochlorous acid molecules can quickly oxidise with ammonia, sulfide and other malodorous substances, convert them into odorless or low-odor substances, and kill anaerobic bacteria that produce odor, thereby reducing odor generation from the source.

In effect:

• Ammonia concentration is reduced by 60-80%
• The incidence of respiratory diseases has decreased significantly
• The stress response of animals was reduced and the growth performance was improved

Due to the spread of disease is one of the biggest risks to the livestock industry. and hypochlorous acid provides a reliable line of defense for the farm.

Application scheme:

• Routine preventive disinfection: daily or every other day low concentration spray
• Terminal disinfection of empty house period: high concentration of comprehensive spraying
• Animal disinfection: suitable concentration can be directly sprayed on the body surface of animals
• Vehicle and personnel channel disinfection: establish disinfection fog curtain or pool

Disinfection Advantages:

• At the same time It has a good killing effect on African swine fever virus, avian influenza virus, foot-and-mouth disease virus and other major animal and poultry diseases
• It has strong permeability and can act on the surface gap of the instrument
• No need to wash, save manpower and water resources

Due to drinking water is an important way of disease transmission. Therefore hypochlorous acid treatment can ensure the safety of drinking water for livestock and poultry.

Process flow:
Water source → primary filtration → hypochlorous acid disinfection → pipeline delivery → drinking water terminal

Technical parameters:

• Available chlorine concentration: 1-3ppm (adjusted according to water quality)
• Time of action: Ensure at least 20 minutes of contact time
• pH control: Maintain 6.0-7.5 to enhance hypochlorous acid activity

Multiple benefits:

• Kill pathogenic microorganisms in water and prevent infectious diseases in water
• Remove the biofilm and keep the pipe clean
• Improve the taste of water and increase the amount of water consumed by animals
• Reduce antibiotic use, in line with the trend of reduced-antibiotic farming

At the same time centralized hypochlorous acid generation and distribution system can be established in modern farms:

• Central preparation unit: The generator with appropriate gas production is select according to the breeding scale
• Intelligent control system: according to the different uses of automatic adjustment of concentration and amount
• Distribution network: separate pipelines to the spray system and drinking water system of each livestock house
• Multi-point monitoring: real-time monitoring of the concentration of each point of use to ensure effect and safety

After the introduction of hypochlorous acid generation system in European cattle farms:

• The incidence of respiratory disease fell from 15% to 4%
• The daily weight gain of cattle increased by 8%
• The disinfection cost saves about 12,000 yuan per month
• The ammonia concentration in the cow house should be keep below 10ppm for a long time (the international standard is 25ppm).

• No toxic residue, ensure food safety
• Reduce the use of antibiotics to alleviate the problem of resistance
• Reduce odor emission and improve the site and surrounding environment
• Reduce plastic packaging waste (disinfectant packaging)
