RECTIFY generates slightly acidic hypochlorous acid water by electrolyzing the mixture of tap water (or underground water) and edible hydrochloric acid in a diaphragm less electrolysis tank. Properties of RECTIFY® product? RECTIFY pH 5.5 has over 99.5% of the effective chlorine contained in the form of HOCl. Little danger of free chlorine gas. Two-chamber-process to produce highly acidic HOCl with high free chlorine 20 Properties of RECTIFY® product? RECTIFY pH 5.5 has over 99.5% of the effective chlorine contained in the form of HOCl.
