Oxidation reaction potential (also known as orp ) is a representation of the oxidation or reduction properties of a substance. Under standard conditions, this value can be determined with a metal electrode that accepts or releases electrons. Platinum or gold (Pt or Au) can be used for the metal electrode. The electrode material must be an inert metal that does not react with the substance to be measured. If the aqueous solution contains an oxidizing or reducing agent, electrons are exchanged.

In the acid/base reaction, it is the exchange of hydrogen ion H+, and in other chemical reactions, it is the exchange of electrons.

The above process is referred to as reduction and oxidation, that is, oxidation and reduction reactions.

Redox is very important for removing cyanide, chromate, and nitrite during purification. Any substance that can release one or more electrons is called a reducing agent, and those that gain electrons are called oxidants. Therefore, the number of electrons increases in reduction reactions and decreases in oxidation reactions.

The ORP value is a measure of the oxidation-reduction capacity of an aqueous solution, and its unit is mv. The ORP value of ionized water showed low and negative values, while the ORP value of ordinary water was high, and the ORP value of soft water was the highest. The ORP value of water filtered by ZONE microporous ORP hydrogen-rich Antioxidant ceramic ball balls is between -150 and -500. Everyone knows that negative ions are good for the human body, because negative ions can help the body remove harmful cyanide, chromate, nitrite, heavy metals and inert metals. These substances are the main substances that cause cancer.
