Sterilize Equipment Chlorine Dioxide Generator Produce Mixed Oxide Disinfectant

Introduction

Chlorine dioxide, ClO2, is one of the most effective bleaching agents for use in industrial and domestic process and services, and for commercial and consumer products. The strong oxidative potential of the molecule makes it ideal for a wide variety of uses that include disinfecting, sterilizing, and bleaching. Concentrations of chlorine dioxide in an aqueous solution as low as 1 part per million (ppm) or less, are known to kill a wide variety of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, molds, fungi, and spores. Higher concentrations of chlorine dioxide, up to several hundred ppm, provide even higher disinfection, bleaching and oxidation of numerous compounds for a variety of applications, including the paper and pulp industry, waste water treatment, industrial water treatment (e.g. cooling water), fruit-vegetable disinfection, oil industry treatment of sulfites, textile industry, and medical waste treatment

Reaction Principle

Electrolysis of Saturated Sodium Chloride (NaCl) produce mixed oxide disinfection Gas such as ClO2, Ozone (O3), Chlorine (Cl2), Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) etc.

Chlorine Dioxide Applications

Chlorine dioxide has a variety of commercial uses.

Treatment of Potable Water.

Chlorine dioxide has long been used to remove tastes and odors in potable water. It is also used in the disinfection of water, particularly where trihalomethanes are of concern. And it oxidizes soluble manganese and iron compounds, eliminating a major cause of stained sinks and fixtures.

Bacterial Control in Oil Wells and Petroleum Systems.

A patented use for chlorine dioxide is to treat water that is or will be contaminated with petroleum oil. Many such mixtures contain sulfite reducing bacteria that form undesirable sulfide compounds. Chlorine dioxide oxidizes these sulfides to sulfates, while preventing or substantially retarding the formation of colloidal sulfur.

Food Processing.

Chlorine Dioxide is highly effective for microbiological control in organically contaminated flume waters. Control of microbiological growths is necessary to insure food product safety and quality. Chlorine Dioxide has also found application in cherry bleaching.

Treatment of Swimming Pool

Chlorine dioxide can effectively kill a variety of infectious diseases and planktonic green algae of swimming pool water. Chlorine dioxide used in conjunction with flocculation, adsorption, will keep the pools excellent water quality unchanged for a long time.

Algae Control in Cooling Towers.

Chlorine dioxide efficiently and economically controls microbiological growths in industrial cooling waters under conditions unfavorable to chlorine. It is the primary microbiological control agent in systems with high pH, ammonia-nitrogen contamination, or persistent slime problems.

Treatment of Wastes.

Chlorine dioxide is used to disinfect sewage and plant wastes. It destroys phenolic, simple cyanides and sulfides by oxidation.

Stripping Dyestuffs from Textiles.

Chlorine dioxide removes dyestuffs from textiles with a minimum of fiber degradation. However, its effectiveness depends upon the dyestuff and the type of fabric. This method also provides a good bottom for redyeing.
