Chlorine Dioxide In Water Treatment

Advantages of chlorine dioxide, particularly compared to chlorine

• Disinfection power is independent of pH.
• High residual effect thanks to long-term stability in the pipeline system, thus microbiological protection for many hours to days
• Reduction of the biofilm in pipelines and tanks, hence reliable protection of entire water systems against legionella contamination.
• No reaction with ammonia or ammonium, thus full disinfection power of chlorine dioxide.
• No formation of chorophenols and other intense odour compounds which can be produced in water chlorination.
• No formation of THMs and other chlorinated hydrocarbons, no increase in the AOX value.

Chlorine Dioxide Applications

For every new project, our engineers can draw on the experience that we have continually accumulated since 1976, in the following applications:

Applications	Legio Zon®	CDV	CDK	Purate®
Municipal drinking water and wastewater plants Disinfection of drinking water Disinfection of wastewater
Hotels, hospitals, retirement homes, sports facilities, etc. Combating legionella in cold and hot water systems Water disinfection in air conditioning system cooling towers
Food and beverage industry Disinfection of product and service water Bottle cleaning, rinser and pasteuriser Cold sterile bottling Disinfectant in CIP systems Condenser water treatment (condensate) in the milk industry Disinfection of wash water for fruit, vegetables, seafood, fish and poultry
Horticulture Disinfection of irrigation water used in plant growing
Industry Cooling water treatment Combating legionella in cooling circuits Disinfection of process water Removal of odorous substances in air scrubbers Combating slime in the paper industry
