BOCA RATON, FL, July 25, 2007 -- Pure H20 Bio-Technologies Inc. (PRHN) announced today it received an official Notice of Allowance from the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Washington, D.C., that a patent will be granted for the Company's "Potable Water Delivery System with Disinfection and Residual Discharge Unit and Method."
Joseph P. Doxey, President of Pure H20 Bio-Technologies Inc., stated, "The Company and its shareholders have been patiently waiting for patent approval for years. We originally filed the provisional patent application over two and half years ago. Our team of professionals continued further research and testing with disinfectants such as Silver TTOTM, Iodine and other halogens to combat waterborne diseases. We are proud that our hard work has been recognized by the United States Patent and Trademark office and a U.S. Patent Number will be issued in the near future."
PRHN Invention: The invention relates to an expertly engineered Silver TTOTM or halogen-disinfection water treatment system that controls the release of the disinfectant and its delivery, a method of generating safe potable drinking water. The PRHN point-of-entry water treatment systems provide another layer of protection for individual homes, businesses, hospitals, schools and healthcare facilities in the event that municipal systems become compromised with chlorine-resistant etiological agents. Historically, the concern has been to deliver a specific disinfectant such as Silver TTOTM or Iodine in a manner that does not present a residual in treated potable water supplies. The PRHN technology provides a new water treatment option based on a system designed with both pre-and post-absolute carbon filtration used in combination with direct Silver TTOTM or crystal iodine contact for disinfection. Moreover, the PRHN system is designed not to release detectable residual Silver TTOTM or Iodine into the disinfected water supplies. Both the Silver TTOTM or iodine concentration and the contact time can be controlled independently of pH, and have demonstrated laboratory effective kill rates to a level of log 8 against microbial agents, as PRHN's test results confirm. Reminder: The CDC makes no recommendation as to the use of the portable filters on the market due to lack of independently verified results of their efficacy.
Pure H2O Bio-Technologies Inc. is a publicly held company specializing in the manufacturing, design and sale of its unique residential, commercial and hospital point-of-use potable water disinfection systems. These systems are specifically designed to work effectively against water-borne pathogens and remove heavy metals and objectionable biomass.
