Chief Scientist and Director of Res. & Dev.

Proj. Mgr. for development project - Deligen II process (Now the

Purizer vapor).

Part of team that formed an Agreement with Battelle Memorial Institute, Columbus, Ohio.

Dr. Eldredge took the proposed discovery of Purizer technology and performed the proof of principle. He designed the first three prototypes and proved the reality of the Deligen II gases (now called the Purizer Vapor). He successfully applied the principle to water and disinfection and also turned pure water into a high level disinfectant in and of itself. His development allowed Bioxide Corp (now Purizer Corp.) to bring the process to Battelle Memorial Institute for a more complete and advanced development of the process, preparatory to entering the marketplace.

Problem Needing a Solution -

An acquired process was sold to Bioxide Corp. (later called Purizer Corp.) The basic idea required some research to attain proof-of-principle. The President of Bioxide assigned me to plan and execute a research protocol that could determine the feasibility of using the proposed process to effect disinfection, purification and/or environmental remediation.

Solution to the Problem:

Dr. Eldredge transformed an extra room into a research laboratory. He devised the necessary protocol to investigate the efficacy and feasibility of the acquired process. He enlisted the cooperation of a regional laboratory to provide the needed test bio-organisms. Dr. Eldredge followed the testing protocol to determine the effectiveness of the process. A series of experiments were performed and data collected. The data was used as a guide to proceed with the application of the main protocol. It was possible to adjust the application of the process and the underlying condition to arrive at a very successful and applicable outcome. This outcome was proven both repeatable and reliable.

Outcome of solving the problem:

The firm was able to present the results and supporting data to a well-known national research lab group. The national lab was impressed with the presentation to the extent that they formed an alliance with the firm. This was the direct result of his Research and Presentation.
