The organic water and soil purification system with added worm control

The Greensaver is a remarkable new water and soil purification system, designed and manufactured in Germany to the highest of standards and granted an organic licence by the EU. The Greensaver exceeds all European requirements for the purification of "grey" water to meet stringent legislation.

The Greensaver is a wall mounted reactor, 76 x 81 cm, that manufactures a liquid called Biodyozon by a biological reaction. This liquid is directly injected into lakes, ponds, water holding tanks, or simply put into a container or spray tank, to be applied where needed. Requiring only salt tablets, mains water and an electricity supply, the Greensaver is ready to produce Biodyozon in minutes.

Biodyozon will:

Eradicate algal blooms (blue or green) from water or soil
Sanitize grey water to drinking water standard - so a perfect addition to irrigation water taken from bore holes or other natural sources and even corrupt mains water *
Clean and sterilise ponds, lakes, water holding tanks, pipework and valves etc with absolutely no harm to birds or aquatic life
Clean and sterilise brickwork, masonry, walkways etc
Eradicate antagonistic bacteria such as E Coli, Clostridien (sulphur reducing bacteria that cause obnoxious aroma) and other Coliforms from water and soil
Help control thatch (releasing useful amino acids), black layer, "squidge" and anaerobic conditions
Control worms, including Nematodes

* Tests conducted by Thames Water Laboratories indicated zero bacteria content.

The creation of Biodyozon is by mains water passing through a salt bin, softened, and then passed through a reactor where an electrolytic process takes place. The Biodyozon is now in a metastable state and at its most active and is colourless and non-toxic. The solution is a short lived combination of the reaction between the salt and water and oxygen and lasts up to seven days. No additional salt is created.

The basic Greensaver is able to produce up to 50 litres of Biodyozon per hour and to purify irrigation water. 1 litre of Biodyozon will treat up to 1000 litres of dirty water. Larger models of the Greensaver are available that produce up to 500 litres per hour.

The cost of running the system is about one penny per ten litres and the system has been designed to be maintenance free. All you have to do, is ensure that the salt bin is kept supplied, which isn"t very often. The system is self cleaning.

The only consumables are the salt tablets. The reactor has to be replaced every two years or so for maximum efficiency. Once the system has been purchased, there are minimal running costs.

By-Products

By-products in the process are a brine solution which is safe to discard in the drain and hydrogen and chlorine gasses which are expelled by duct. No chlorine or salt is present in "Biodyozon"

A number of golf clubs have already purchased the system, and there are two well known personages of renown who have already benefited from the Greensaver.

The first satisfied customer in this country (other than a golf club) was Eddie Seaward of The All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Association. "Two years ago the Greensaver was installed to combat the growing problem of antagonistic bacteria and algae in the lake above "Henman Hill." The system was originally installed to purify the water through the water holding tank that supplied the lake. Within a couple of days the tank was completely cleared of microbes and one could see the bottom of the tank, which was previously impossible, and the once rather obnoxious smell had disappeared. The lake and the waterfall course way it feeds, were also cleared, and for the first time for many, fish and other aquatic life in the lake could be seen very clearly."

"At one time, and for a short period, when the Greensaver was turned off, the algae returned and was back being a nuisance within days along with its accompanying smell. As soon as the system was turned back on, the algae and bad smell disappeared. The system was later moved so that it could feed the lake directly."

The latest recipient of the Greensaver is Peter Craig of The Hurlingham Club who required the system to prevent his pump filters from fouling and to purify his irrigation water. Peter utilises the water from his lake to irrigate his grounds that include a cricket pitch, tennis courts and croquet lawns. Unfortunately, the lake also attracts all manner of wildlife and rotting vegetation that cannot simply be flushed away. On average, the filters needed to be cleaned three times a day to stop them clogging up. Since fitting the Greensaver, he has not had to have them cleaned once, his water is clean and bacteria free and soon he will be seeing those benefits passed through to his soil and turf.

Thatch Reduction

Once incorporated into your irrigation system, the Biodyozon in the water will also begin to work on reducing thatch, thereby releasing valuable amino acids into the soil that will reduce the amount of fertiliser required. It will also help to fight anaerobic conditions by pumping supercharged oxygen particles directly into the soil and eradicating antagonistic bacteria that contribute to "black layer". Biodyozon will help to produce healthy soil that will encourage beneficial bacteria to flourish.

Worm Control

Yet another use for Biodyozon is as a worm control! At various demonstrations held last year, many groundstaff and greenkeepers were amazed to see the number of worms that Biodyozon brought to the surface. Even in winter, the magic liquid was enticing all the worms in the area treated, to the surface, where they could be collected and put somewhere more suitable. No one is sure what the process is that causes this to happen, but we are sure that the Biodyozon irritates them, and they come to the surface to escape it.

The cost to treat one hectare for worms is about £9. You will agree that this is a viable alternative to the costly chemicals currently being offered. And do they really work?

Much research has already been carried out at the Frauenhof Institute at The Frankfurt University, but more is ongoing. Currently we are looking at the effects of Biodyozon on "dry patch" and so far the results are promising.

Various application rates apply depending on the task required but an average amount used to sanitise water would be one litre of Biodyozon to one thousand litres of water. The treatment of worms would require a dilution of 1:20 to 1:50. Full application rates are available on purchase. The cost to produce one litre of Biodyozon, once the system has been purchased, is approximately one tenth of a penny!

The cost of a Greensaver is just £7999.00 plus vat which includes a two to three day stay by a technician from Germany who will ensure the system is fitted properly. Also included in the price is a two year, unconditional warranty on parts and labour.
