The Omnipure® Model 7ME is a safe, ready-to-install sewage treat- ment system utilizing a unique pat- ented electrocatalytic process. Ac- cording to EES, the price of the 7ME is extremely competitive be- cause the system uses standardized components and materials. The Omnipure systems are com- pletely sealed to prevent any leak- age or contamination. The unique flow-through process, featured in all Omnipure systems, eliminates the potential for the formation of dead- ly gases. No additives are required as with all Omnipure units, the sodi- um hypochlorite used for disinfect- ing the sewage effluent is generated from seawater.
