Chlorine Dioxide Water Treatment: A Modern Solution to Safe Disinfection

Chlorine dioxide has long been celebrated as a superior disinfectant, ideal for water treatment due to its effectiveness against bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens. However, traditional chlorine dioxide production has often been riddled with challenges. From expensive equipment to safety risks, these barriers have made chlorine dioxide water treatment inaccessible for many smaller users. Fortunately, a breakthrough in technology—GO2™—is changing that narrative.

For decades, chlorine dioxide production required specialized equipment, such as gas-generating systems, which posed significant risks. These systems demanded high upfront investment and extensive training due to the volatile nature of chlorine dioxide gas. Additionally, more than 99% of the gas produced was wasted, making it an inefficient and costly process. For small and medium-sized water treatment users, this was simply not affordable.

Chlorine dioxide for disinfection has been a reliable method for large-scale industrial applications, but the expensive equipment and high operating costs limited its use. Traditional chlorine dioxide generation systems required secure, fire-proof rooms and were restricted to trained, authorized personnel due to the inherent risks of handling chlorine dioxide gas. These limitations meant that small communities or smaller enterprises could not utilize the technology effectively.

However, with the introduction of GO2™, these barriers are a thing of the past. GO2™ provides an easy, affordable, and efficient solution to chlorine dioxide water treatment. The technology simplifies the entire process by eliminating the need for expensive equipment and specialized handling. GO2™ utilizes a simple process where two powders are mixed with regular or deionized water, producing a concentrated chlorine dioxide solution. This method generates a 4,000ppm chlorine dioxide liquid concentrate with over 95% purity, leaving no waste, by-products, or harmful residues.

Unlike older methods, GO2™ makes chlorine dioxide production accessible to everyone—from urban water authorities to rural villages. It is a 21st-century alternative to outdated chlorine dioxide generation methods, offering a safer, more efficient, and environmentally friendly approach to disinfection. With GO2™, chlorine dioxide water treatment is now both practical and affordable, opening up new possibilities for safe, sustainable water disinfection across all scales.
