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-scal...

To make water drinkable, chlorine dioxide is widely used in very small quantities. This has the power to disinfect water. It acts as a disinfectant similar to bleach and hence not very much safe when used in large amounts.  Since it has the power to kill bacteria, viruses and fungi, chlorine dioxide is widely used in public water treatment facilities. Its high use often damages red blood cells and the lining of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Many researches depict that chlorine dioxide is added to drinking water to protect people from harmful bacteria and other microorganisms. This is the reason it is included in the World Health Organization's guidelines for drinking-water quality.  In medical settings, chlorine dioxide gas can be used to help sterilize equipment, surfaces, rooms and tools. It should not be used to treat diseases or ailments. Chlorine dioxide treatment can be a safe and effective solution for peroxidation and disinfection. Chlorine dioxide for disinfection ...

In the water treatment industry aimed at curing of public drinking water, a series of steps are taken. They include coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, and disinfection. In disinfection part, the water treatment chlorine dioxide finds extensive use as the most essential chemical to deliver purified edible water. Disinfection is an important step in the last-mile process to ensure that the public water offered to communities is hygienic, healthy, and free of all microbes. Flocculation in water treatment stands for the gentle mixing of the water to form flocs, or heavier particles. In sedimentation, flocs settle down at the bottom of the water and pump up clear water to the top. In the filtration process, dissolved particles, germs, dust, chemicals, parasites, bacteria, viruses, and bad odors are eliminated. Many treatment plants also use a process called ultrafiltration, where the water goes through a filter membrane with small pores. This is an extension ...
