Although we have ample anecdotal evidence from customers in the field [Sites & Testimonials], we have been working with respected third-party agencies for decades to research the mixed-oxidant technology. Many of their reports have been published in peer-reviewed journals, presented at conferences, or publicized in industry magazines. A sampling of these studies are listed below, most of which are accessible via our Technical Library.
