JTS SafGen UV-OX Chlorine Dioxide Generator

Background Chlorine dioxide has been used for over 100 years. It is more selective than chlorine or bromines and remains effective at low concentrations. Chlorine dioxide is a wide spectrum biocide, effective over a broad pH range, and is a superior product for the control of Legionella. Chlorine dioxide has been used for over 100 years.

Chlorine dioxide penetrates the bacterial cell wall and reacts with amino acids to kill the organism. Chlorine dioxide penetrates the bacterial cell wall and reacts with amino acids to kill the organism.

Chlorine Dioxide vs. Chlorine Many treatment programs operate with pH in the range of At pH 6.0, chlorine hydrolyzes to hypochlorous acid (HOCI), which is its effec- tive form. At a pH of 8.5, only 8% goes to HOCI, thus requiring a much higher dosage to control algae and slime. Chlorine dioxide retains efficacy over a wide pH range and provides superior biocide control at a fraction of the chlorine dosage. The smaller dosage makes chlorine dioxide more cost effective. Chlorine dioxide excels in ammoniated systems and where process leaks create high demands for chlorine. Chlorine dioxide does not react with ammonia and is more selective in its reactivity, thus minimizing the dosage and the possible formation of chlorinated organics in the blowdown.

Chlorine Dioxide – Physical Properties Chemical Formula = ClO 2 Chemical Formula = ClO 2 Does not react w/ water Does not react w/ water A true dissolved gas in solution A true dissolved gas in solution 2.5 times the oxidizing capacity of Chlorine 2.5 times the oxidizing capacity of Chlorine A strong oxidizer A strong oxidizer A potent microbiocide A potent microbiocide Must be generated at point of use Must be generated at point of use

Chlorine Dioxide Benefits Selective disinfecting oxidant Rapid kill rate at low ppm Broad-range bacteria, fungi & virus destruction Penetrates & sluffs biofilm, killing resident organisms Does not form trihalomethanes (THM’s) Does not react with ammonia or chlorinated organics Does not form hypochlorous acid or free chlorine Is less corrosive than chlorine Oxidizes manganese, iron, phenols, sulfides, cyanides Able to oxidize odor-causing substances Remains effective across broad pH range

Why Isn’t Chlorine Dioxide More Widely Used? Federal law prohibits the transportation of chlorine dioxide gas, therefore it must be produced at the point of use. Large-scale water treatment systems use complex and expensive acid-based chlorine dioxide generators. Typically, these methods require multiple hazardous precursors. Chlorine dioxide historically has been considered a viable option when the amount of water requiring treatment warranted the expense, danger, complexity and maintenance concerns of a large-scale generator.

In Summary… Has to be generated on-site 2-3 chemical precursors required Complicated, expensive feed equipment Dangerous to produce Current systems are highly corrosive Labor-intensive and high-maintenance costs Requires qualified manpower - 24/7 monitoring No effective systems for under 2 lbs./day

Finally…. Finally…. The SafGen Chlorine Dioxide Generator overcomes the barriers of: Hazard Expense Maintenance Complexity Size
