View Full Version : Anyone actually own a Dialyseas Unit?

I know that the Dialyseas system, an extremely expensive dialysis
water exchange system, has been discussed in this newsgroup before.
It is produced by a company out of Florida.
http://www.seavisions.com/products.htm

Their Website has pictures of some pretty darn elaborate setups that
this company has made using this system (especially this one)

I find it difficult to believe that someone would pay on the order
of 100K (guesstimate) for a turn-key system like this one that did
not work well.

Still I have not heard any feedback, positive or negative from actual
owners of this system.

They have the prices listed on their page.
$950 -$2600
Wealthy people who care about their "decoration" will buy something like
that...

A hobbyist hopefully would never consider such a thing....

hi.
Can someone tells me the difference between reverse osmosis and dialysis in
the result aspect?

the RO is for treating tap water the dialyseas unit treats tank water using RO'd tap water

the way its advertised as working is the sw is on one side of a membrane the fw is on
another, and what should happen is things like ammonia/nitrite/nitrate and a few other
things should try to seek equalibrium between both sides of the unit, but the salt should
stay on the SW side, then basically the FW side is flushed and new tank FW & SW is brought
in and the process repeats basically doing continous small waterchanges avoiding larger
changes, it also consumes needed things, and those are replaced by a "magic" solution

hi.
Sounds like it is just an automated system for filling up a chamber
(dialysis pressure vessle with semi-permeable membrane separating tank water
and DI water).

It can be DIYed, if you can get the dialysis membrane (~$40?).

In addition to the system cost, the amount of water this unit uses is
considerable more than doing a regular water change.
