01:11.10: the waste is macerated and receives its first treatment. Specially coated electrode plates create an electrical field and convert the saltwater into hydrochloric

01:22.55: acid, a powerful bactericide. Once the treatment solution reacts with bacteria and waste, it reverts back to salt and water. The next time the toilet is flushed

01:35.76: and new, untreated waste enters the first chamber. Some of the treated discharge enters the second chamber, while the new waste is being treated in the first chamber, the contents

02:26.86: and salt solution is automatically added as needed. A small amount of water supplied by the boats Pressurized Freshwater system maintains the water level in the tank

02:40.76: and continues to generate saturate salt solution from the solar salt. During the processing mode, the Electroscan control can call for salt to be injected into

02:53.48: the treatment unit as needed for proper operation. The Electroscan system is the most popular U. S. Coast Guard Type I MSD system available. The units power

03:07.81: consumption has been reduced by 36% at only 1.2 ampere hours of power per cycle. The Electroscan generates its own natural
