Scott;
Good idea, but there are a couple of others that have cleaning potential.
Electrolysed Water
and the newest
Ultrasonically charged Water.
Larry, I'm doing this video on water that people can buy and afford to generate at their shop or home.
Electrolysed water (
electrolyzed water,
EOW,
ECA,
electrolyzed oxidizing water,
electro-activated water or
electro-chemically activated water solution) is produced by the
electrolysis of ordinary
tap water containing dissolved
sodium chloride.
[1] The electrolysis of such salt solutions produces a solution of
sodium hypochlorite, which is the most common ingredient in store-bought household
bleach. The resulting water is a known cleanser and disinfectant / sanitizer but is not a surfactant (soap).
in short Electrolysed water reacts with salt in the water and makes a form of bleach so its not eligible for this and I personally don't thin that it would be a good candidate for carpet cleaning
An
ultrasonic cleaning is a process that uses
ultrasound (usually from 20–400
kHz) and an appropriate cleaning solvent (sometimes ordinary tap water) to clean items. The ultrasound can be used with just water, but use of a solvent appropriate for the item to be cleaned along with the soiling enhances the effect. Cleaning normally lasts between three and six minutes, but can also exceed 20 minutes, depending on the object to be cleaned.
[1]
Ultrasonic cleaning is also not eligible in my opinion because it would take specialized equipment and would require the carpet to be in contact with a solid stream of water for an extended period of time to benefit from ultrasonic waves. Ultrasonic I also feel wouldn't work overly well because its typically used to clean hard materials that reflect or conduct the vibration caused by the ultrasonic generator, and the difference between the dirt and the rigid object is what helps the vibration separate the object being cleaned from the dirt or substance.
Also ultrasonic generators powerful enough to break oily particles off of rigid objects are expensive and require the object to be completely submerged for minutes to hours depending upon the soil, and density of the soil.
So I stand firm with my offer of the original water types as they are easily generated by the average cleaner/ operator.
