Electrifying Innovations: Anolyte and Catholyte Solutions Energize Oil & Gas Industry

In the dynamic realm of oil and gas operations, the synergy of Anolyte and Catholyte solutions, born from water electrolysis, emerges as a transformative force. Delve into the dual capabilities of these solutions, engineered by 21st Energy Solutions, as they combat bacteria, preserve well integrity, and revolutionize oil recovery.

Anolyte Solution: Defending Against Hydrogen Sulfide Threats

The water electrolysis process also produces a second fluid, which is a catholyte solution. The properties of this solution make it effective as a surfactant, which can be used in all contexts without health and safety concerns for human workers or the surrounding environment.

In the relentless pursuit of efficient oil extraction, the battle against hydrogen sulfide (H2S) takes center stage. Anolyte, a byproduct of water electrolysis and the foundation of Hydrolyte^Ⓡ, emerges as a superhero against this formidable foe. With hypochlorous acid (HOCl) as its weapon, Hydrolyte^Ⓡ adeptly penetrates cell walls of harmful bacteria, creating an eco-friendly and effective defense against microbes that generate H2S, thereby disrupting oil recovery processes.

Catholyte Solution: Surging Efficiency in Oil Recovery

Alongside Anolyte, the electrolysis process gives birth to Catholyte—a surfactant powerhouse known as Catholyte Zero^Ⓡ in 21st Energy Solutions’ arsenal. Distinguished from Anolyte, Catholyte Zero^Ⓡ assumes a pivotal role in secondary and tertiary oil recovery, disrupting the surface tension of connate water. This disruption becomes a catalyst for efficient oil extraction, reducing connate water and offering an environmentally friendly solution to enhance oil recovery.

Decoding the Chemistry: Anolyte vs. Catholyte

The molecular makeup of Anolyte and Catholyte imparts unique characteristics, making each solution invaluable for specific applications. While Catholyte, acting as a surfactant, excels in disrupting surface tension, Anolyte functions as a disinfectant, proficient in killing bacteria and pathogens. A comprehensive strategy for bacteria elimination and cleanliness ideally employs both solutions in different contexts, ensuring a holistic approach to oil and gas operations.

Safety First: Anolyte Solutions Guarding the Oil & Gas Industry

In the meticulous selection of disinfectants and biocides, the emphasis on effectiveness versus potential hazards is paramount. Hydrolyte^Ⓡ rises to the forefront as a secure choice. It neither emits volatile organic compounds (VOCs) nor demands personal protective equipment (PPE). Its low toxicity, coupled with high effectiveness against bacteria, ensures a versatile and safe solution for oil and gas operations, fostering a culture of safety.

Safety and Efficiency with Catholyte Solutions

Catholyte Zero^Ⓡ, mirroring Hydrolyte^Ⓡ, boasts low toxicity, guaranteeing safety in surfactant applications. As environmental consciousness ascends in the oil and gas industry, Catholyte Zero^Ⓡ stands as a surfactant that not only amplifies oil recovery but also contributes to reducing the usage of toxic chemicals on-site, aligning with the industry’s commitment to environmental stewardship.

FAQS

An anolyte solution containing hypochlorous acid uses the same method as hypochlorous acid that naturally occurs within the human body to attack harmful cells. Due to the HOCl’s neutral electrical charge, it is able to pass through a cell’s walls, where it attacks the cell and kills it quickly. This mechanism works quickly and leaves the cell no opportunity to build up a defense against the biocide.

Both our anolyte and catholyte solutions are generated from water and sodium chloride that have been treated with an electrolysis process. The resulting fluids have low toxicity and can be safely used even around pets and children. In oil/gas applications, our biocide product can be used to kill bacteria downhole and on equipment without harming the ecosystem.

Besides functioning as an agent to disrupt surface tension and enhance secondary and tertiary oil recovery, Catholyte Zero^Ⓡ is a valuable asset as a surfactant and all purpose degreaser in a huge range of different contexts. It is versatile enough to be used in all living and working areas to remove large particles that can harbor illness causing pathogens.

Health and safety in the workplace encompasses far more than the hydrogen sulfide gas that our biocide helps to prevent. As an anolyte disinfectant, Hydrolyte^Ⓡ kills many of the most hazardous and common pathogens that tend to propagate in areas where people spend large amounts of time together. From restrooms to kitchens to dining areas, Hydrolyte^Ⓡ is an ideal disinfectant spray that helps keep employees protected from disease.
