Energetic activation with the FIR bio-ceramic cartridge
Operating principle: This stage uses the physical properties of far infrared radiation (Far Infrared Rays, FIR).
Material and mechanism: The cartridge contains ceramic balls made of a blend of mineral oxides (e.g. silicon dioxide, aluminum oxide) and doped minerals such as tourmaline. These materials are able to permanently emit far infrared rays in a specific wavelength range (typically 4-16 μm). This wavelength range is particularly important because water molecules (H2O) show strong absorption bands exactly here. This means the water molecules resonate with the emitted radiation.
1.Energy absorption: The water flowing through absorbs the energy of the FIR photons.
2.Excitation of molecular vibrations: The absorbed energy raises the water molecules to a higher vibrational state (vibrational and rotational energy).
3.Splitting of hydrogen bonds: This increased internal energy of the molecules weakens or breaks the intermolecular hydrogen bonds that are responsible for the formation of large water clusters (H2O)?.
Result: The average size of the water clusters is significantly reduced. Instead of large, sluggish clusters, smaller, more mobile units are formed. This has direct consequences:
•Increased hydration capability: Smaller water clusters can pass through biological membranes (e.g. cell walls) more easily. This can potentially make cellular water uptake (hydration) as well as the transport of nutrients and the removal of metabolites more efficient.
•Improved sensory properties: The water is perceived as extremely soft, "silky" and easy to drink.
