water ionization is the separation of the water stream in an electrolyzer with a membrane into fractions with different pH and ionic composition; the process does not replace water purification.

What does water ionization mean in practice?

The electrolyzer requires water of appropriate conductivity and splits it into cathode and anode streams, but does not remove previously present contaminants.

When does it matter?

High pH of water from the ionizer is not proof of its purity, and the ORP result strongly depends on the pH and ionic composition.

Which solutions are related to it?

Before the ionizer, treatment appropriate to the water quality should be ensured, and the device should be operated in accordance with the manufacturer's requirements regarding mineralization.
