Drinking Water-Potable Water Chemical Treatment

Chlorine dioxide

Chlorine dioxide is an excellent broad spectrum oxidising biocide which is It is effective at low concentrations and is used in a large number of applications such as disinfection, sanitation and water treatment.

It has more than 2.5 times the oxidising capability of chlorine and requires a lower contact time. Chlorine dioxide is effective in alkaline conditions (pH 8. One of the main advantages of using chlorine dioxide is that, unlike most other biocides, it is able to destroy biofilm

Chlorine dioxide does not generally react with other water treatment chemicals or with nitrogen compounds including ammonia and naturally occurring organic materials such as organic acids.
