Aquentium CEO, Mark Taggatz To Host Seminar On Applications Of E-Coli And Salmonella Intervention For Restaurants And Grocery Stores

North Palm Springs, CA - (WORLD STOCK WIRE) - July 25, 2008 -- Aquentium, Inc. (OTCBB: AQNM) announced today that Mark Taggatz, CEO and President of the company will be hosting a seminar on August 8, 2008 for restaurants and grocery stores regarding e-coli and salmonella intervention.

Traditionally, restaurants and grocery stores have used chemicals to sanitize their operations or they use chemicals on food in hopes of removing bacteria and viruses. Compared to chlorine, ozone offers several advantages for food and beverage processors or anyone who wants to sanitize materials or surfaces. Chlorine has traditionally been the sanitizer of choice in the food processing industry, but experts share a growing concern about the dangerous byproducts such as trihalomethanes or dioxins produced when chlorine reacts with organic matter in the water. These substances are known carcinogens and are regulated in drinking water by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

“Our ozone equipment installed at any restaurant or grocery store would allow for food to be washed thoroughly with ozone water,” stated Taggatz. “As an oxidizer, ozone is 51 times more powerful than chlorine, the oxidizer most commonly used by most food processors, and 3,000 times faster at killing bacteria and other microbes. Ozone is effective as a disinfectant at relatively low concentrations and does not leave toxic by-products similar to those related to chlorination.”

Until 2001, ozone could only be used as a disinfectant to treat bottled water. But its effectiveness as
an antibacterial agent allowed the FDA to extend its use and allow direct contact with all food. Ozone does not leave any chemical residues like chlorine.

While chlorinated wash systems require transport and storage of potentially hazardous toxic chemicals, ozone is unique in that it is generated onsite from oxygen and can be produced on demand with no storage required. When the ozone generator is turned off, there are no dangerous substances on the premises. Ozone can be injected or dissolved in water to provide rinsing or washing of food products such as meat, poultry, seafood, fruits or vegetables.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta Georgia compiled and analyzed information from multiple surveillance systems and other sources and it is estimated that food borne diseases cause approximately 76 million illnesses, 325,000 hospitalizations, and 5,000 deaths in the United States each year.

For more than a century, ozone has been used in Europe for purifying drinking water and is currently used in the United States for purifying bottled water and decontaminating cooling towers. The cities of Los Angeles, Dallas, and Las Vegas all currently use ozone to purify their water supply.
