What is Catalytic Water Technology?

Unlike traditional chemical-based approaches, catalytic water management prevents scaling, corrosion, and biofouling at the molecular level. Our proprietary catalyst uses technology (instead of chemicals) to alter water's properties and keep your system clean, improve heat transfer, reduce downtime, and extend equipment life.

How it Works

CAPE HydroTek’s technology works by introducing a proprietary metal catalyst into the water system. This catalyst initiates controlled reactions that:

✔ Prevent mineral deposits from forming

✔ Reduce conditions that allow pathogens to thrive

✔ Prevent corrosion without the need for harsh chemicals

Step 1: Water Passes Through the Catalytic Module

Water flows through a specialized mineral catalyst that modifies water through electron exchange.

Step 2: Mineral Activity & Biofilm Growth Are Disrupted

The catalyst modifies water behavior to:

Prevent scaling and corrosion before deposits form
Disrupt bacterial biofilm formation, reducing the conditions that allow pathogenic bacteria to grow.

Step 3: System Stays Cleaner, Improving Water Flow & Heat Transfer

Without scale and biofouling, less chemicals are needed, cooling systems and other equipment are clean, operate efficiently, and use less energy.

Step 4: The Process Works Continuously Without Chemical Dosing

The catalyst stabilizes water conditions continuously, without degrading or requiring replenishment. Over time, this prevents buildup, reduces chemical reliance, and minimizes downtime and maintenance needs.

Integrates Easily into Your Existing Infrastructure

CAPE HydroTek’s catalytic technology is designed for easy integration into existing, traditional systems with minimal maintenance. The mineral metal catalyst is installed directly into the water system where it is most advantageous. For cooling systems, this is typically at the make-up water supply but may be at other points along the circuit. In all cases, installations are done with minimal modifications or downtime.

No major equipment changes required: The catalyst works seamlessly within existing infrastructure.
Minimal downtime for installation: Unlike complex water treatment retrofits, this technology can be implemented quickly.
Long-lasting & minimal maintenance: Once installed the catalyst does not degrade, greatly extending maintenance intervals and reducing chemical adjustments.

Why It Matters: Smarter Water Management That Works

Traditional water management is costly and inefficient.

Constant chemical dosing leads to high costs, unpredictable expenses, and compliance headaches. CAPE HydroTek’s catalytic technology cuts chemical use by at least 50%— reducing spend while maintaining compliance.

Scaling, corrosion, and downtime disrupt operations.

Equipment failures shorten system lifespan and cause costly unplanned shutdowns. Unlike chemical treatments that react to problems, our technology is proactive to keep systems cleaner and running longer.

Pathogenic bacteria such as Legionella and biofouling create compliance risks.

Regulations are tightening, and Legionella outbreaks lead to fines, shutdowns, and liability concerns. Our solution disrupts biofilm growth without harsh biocides, to easily maintain safer, compliant systems.
