Chlorine dioxide is being heralded as the “ideal anti-microbial agent”.

It has been commonly used in large scale applications, such as the purification of municipal water supplies throughout many parts of the world. Improved mechanisms for the safe, simple and cost effective delivery of chlorine dioxide have enabled its use in a wide range of application areas.

Public awareness of invasive pathogens such as Legionella, MRSA and SARS has reached an all time high because of recent high profile outbreaks. There is an urgent need to modify treatment regimes and implement a biocidal treatment that is fast acting, non-toxic, non-irritating and meets with the required regulatory standards. Chlorine dioxide offers all of these benefits and eliminates the side effects which are associated with conventional biocides.

Chlorine dioxide’s chemistry is radically different from that of chlorine. The addition of two oxygen atoms creates a totally different chemical with very different properties.

Clearwater catalytic technology allows chlorine dioxide to be delivered in precise and controlled quantities at the point of use, eliminating the need for cumbersome and potentially hazardous generation techniques. Our systems generate chlorine dioxide solutions with high conversion efficiency. This product is ideally suited to applications within the healthcare sector.

Advanced digital dosing technology offers precise delivery, enabling continuous treatment of water. This ensures that harmful biofilms and pathogen nutrient sources which build up within pipework and systems are eradicated.

Hospital pipework is extensive and often contains a number of deadlegs. There is a serious threat within deadlegs due to the prevalence of biofilm. This acts as a safe haven for pathogens and can pose a serious threat to human health.

A flow related chlorine dioxide dosing system means that the water is dosed as it’s used, meaning that there is continuous protection without the requirement for periodic shutdowns.
