2. What is the easiest and safest way to disinfect water?

3. Is it… Ionization? Chlorine? Chemicals? UV? Ozone?

4. Chlorine is the most common chemical disinfectant but the question is: Is disinfection with chlorine really safe and reliable?

5. The hazards of Chlorine Chlorine is a suspect carcinogenic agent in drinking water (Mutagen X) Harvard Medical/ Barcelona Study 2007. Chlorine can produce hazardous chlorinated organic compounds by reaction with common organic compounds found in drinking water. These hazardous compounds include trihalomethane (THM), mono-,di and trichloroacetic acids (HAA) Mutagen X cancer potency is 170 times greater than chloroform. (Harvard Medical School) Mutagen X, THM and HAA are linked to cancer, miscarriages, stillbirths and birth defects

6. Other problems with Chlorine Chlorine is pH dependent. It only works in a narrow pH range from about 7 to 8.5 Chlorine is corrosive Chlorine is hazardous to transport, store and use Chlorine does not kill ALL microorganisms in water Chlorine does not effectively remove biofilm and algae Chlorine generates byproducts that pose a proven risk to human health

7. What is chlorine dioxide (ClO2)? It has chlorine in its name but it is not chlorine. Think of it this way…. Water (H 2 0) is made from two parts hydrogen gas with one part oxygen gas…but it is neither hydrogen nor oxygen; it is water an entirely different substance. Similarly, chlorine dioxide is neither chlorine nor oxygen but an entirely new substance.

8. Facts about “traditional” chlorine dioxide It is a gas that explodes in contact with air It is a gas that explodes in contact with air It is difficult and dangerous to transport and very corrosive It is difficult and dangerous to transport and very corrosive It is only 60% to 70% pure. The remaining 30%-40% is made up of hazardous and potentially toxic residues It is only 60% to 70% pure. The remaining 30%-40% is made up of hazardous and potentially toxic residues However: However: It is the BEST disinfectant available according to the World Health organisation It is the BEST disinfectant available according to the World Health organisation

9. To develop an innovative and evolutionary system that removes all known negative side effects and byproducts from the use of chlorine dioxide disinfectants. Thus creating a completely safe chlorine dioxide disinfectant. What was the challenge? What was the challenge?

10. Unsurpassed disinfection power No more dangerous byproducts Safe to humans and animals Numerous applications A great evolution in the world of water disinfection If we could make a pure ClO 2 solution in water what would that mean?

11. After eight years of intensive research, scientists are able to generate pure ClO 2 dissolved in water. We call it: Today we present to you this evolution…

14. 100% effective against all water-borne microorganisms including spore forming bacteria, viruses, protozoa, fungi, mould, parasites and larval eggs.100% effective against all water-borne microorganisms including spore forming bacteria, viruses, protozoa, fungi, mould, parasites and larval eggs. 1 litre can disinfect up to 200,000L of water.1 litre can disinfect up to 200,000L of water. Destroys algae-related taste and odour compounds (no bad tastes or smells).Destroys algae-related taste and odour compounds (no bad tastes or smells). The only by-products of CleanOxide are very small amounts of sodium sulphate (Na 2 SO 4 ) and sodium chloride (NaCl) substances commonly found in water.The only by-products of CleanOxide are very small amounts of sodium sulphate (Na 2 SO 4 ) and sodium chloride (NaCl) substances commonly found in water. What is CleanOxide ® ?

19. Biofilm is the film of dirt, mineral residues and microorganism found in water lines, filters, pumps, etc. Typically, it consists of a thin, soft layer overlying a hard, older layer.. What is biofilm and biofouling? What is biofilm and biofouling?

20. 1. Chlorine does NOT remove both layers of biofilm. 2. Chlorine does not penetrate and destroy the microorganisms living in the harder underlying layer of biofilm. 3. Chlorine only affects the upper softer layer. 4. Chlorine dioxide penetrates both layers of biofilm. 5. Only complete removal of biofilm guarantees 100% safe water at the tap. 6. Chlorine dioxide removes biofilm and prevents its regrowth with low continuous dosing. Facts about Biofilm
