Commercial Proof

Active Deployments

Three exclusive licensees and multiple commercial deployments spanning 7+ years. The technology is not theoretical, it is in the field.

Heat Exchangers · Process Equipment

HTRI, Exclusive Worldwide Licensee

Exclusive worldwide provider since 2014

HTRI (Heat Transfer Research, Inc.) holds an exclusive worldwide license to apply I 2’s vapor infusion technology within heat exchangers, associated piping systems, and water processing applications. The partnership originated from Michael Radicone’s presentation at the 2013 International Conference on Heat Exchanger Fouling and Cleaning in Budapest.

Successful implementations include cruise shipping, offshore drilling, geothermal systems, and aquaculture. In 2024, Michael received the Mike Ackrill Award from the UK Heat Transfer Society.

Marine · Heat Exchanger Fouling (via HTRI)

Norwegian Sun, Engine Coolers

8 years foul-free

Both sets of main engine coolers (forward and aft) operated without cleaning for 26+ months. First Engineer reported all four low-temperature coolers in good condition. No biological fouling. No mineral fouling. Zero unplanned maintenance.

Energy · Offshore (via HTRI)

Semi-Submersible Drilling Ship

7 years foul-free

8 thruster coolers (3,800 kW each), 8 main engine coolers (5,060 kW each), 4 miscellaneous exchangers, 10 vapor infusion systems. Thruster #6 operated continuously for 3 months and outperformed recently cleaned units at 100% load.

Industrial · Geothermal

Microchip Technology, Geothermal Heat Exchanger

Fouling eliminated

Severe iron-reducing bacteria fouling drove back pressure from design 6 psi to 30+ psi. Since installing vapor infusion, the facility has not chemically or mechanically cleaned the heat exchanger. Gate valves and well screens cleared.

Dental · Mercury Remediation

Solmetex, Exclusive Licensee (Dental)

Mercury transformative microbes + Mereduce™ trademark

Solmetex holds exclusive rights to I 2 Air Fluid Innovation’s mercury transformative microbe technology and the Mereduce™ trademark for dental applications. Leading provider of dental water management solutions serving practices across the United States.

Agriculture · Aquaculture · Microbial Formulations

Roebic Laboratories, Exclusive Licensee

Nanobubbles + mercury transformative microbes for ag/aquaculture

Roebic holds exclusive rights to produce microbial formulations for agriculture and aquaculture containing Mereduce™ microbes. Founded 1959, 60+ years of bacterial formulation expertise. Also produces I 2 Air Fluid Innovation’s evac system microbial products.

Marine · Biofouling · Proof of Concept

Seawater Fouling, Controlled Study

Substantially reduced fouling

45-day controlled comparison: no treatment, air only, and iodinated air. Control and air-only showed significant fouling. Iodinated air demonstrated substantially reduced fouling.

Aquaculture

Aqua Production – Clean Plate

Fouling - Aquaculture

Aqua Production Systems designs and installs live seafood holding systems that protect product through reduced environmental stress and streamlines the operation.

The Clean Plate System eliminates fouling in product tank heat exchangers. This reduces tank temperature variations which improves health and growth rate while reducing energy needs.
