ClO2 for Industrial Water TreatmentChlorine dioxide is used for disinfection and oxidation in
industrial, food, and point of use water applications
• Major Applications:– Cooling Towers– Rinses for raw ag. Products– Flume waters disinfection– Waste Water disinfection– Drip Irrigation– Hospital Water– Hotel Water– Industrial waste water for phenol, cyanide destruction

ClO2 Gas Treatments
• ClO2 solution is great but Gas has exciting new possibilities
• ClO2 gas has long been know as a sanitizer/disinfectant/sterilant but has had limited use due to a lack of easy generation technology
• ClO2 gas forms a rapid equilibrium with water - brings ClO2 to the problem
ICA technology = practical, simple and predictability = $$$

Fig 4. Exposure of carpet with Bacillus species endospores to ClO2 -releasing powderSections of carpet (232.3 cm2, duplicates) with both long (10 mm, A & C) and short pile (4 mm , B & D) were tested with sterility strips with Bacillus subtilis and B. stearothermophilus (2x106 spores, each was cut into four equal lengths spores) embedded on edge into the pile of the carpets. The con trolled-release ClO2 powder was applied to both pre-moistened (10 ml sterile, deionized water) and dry carpet sections both at 7.8 mg/cm 2 or 38.8 mg/cm2. Spore strips were recovered from the carpet after 2 h and 24 h and cultured in Tryptic Soy broth (TSB) fortified with 0.3% sodium thiosulfate, and were monitored visually for
growth in comparison with control strips in the same me dia. Bacillus spp. were recovered from only 2 of 8 strips from moistened carpets and none from dry carpets after 24 h at the 38 .8 mg/cm2 concentration.

Chlorine Dioxide for Medical/Biothreat
•Advantages:- low concentration sterlilant (< 25 mg/L)- exhaust gas easy to destroy- low temperature (25-30C)- rapid cycle
•Limitations:- limited penetrability- gas must be generated on site- pre-humidification- corrosive to some metals

ClO2 ATEK Concept• Simple, shelf-stable, first-line responder
kit containing ClO2 gas, solution and powder generation materials
• Puts established best available chemical in the field where there is a gap in response capability
• Products put ClO2 close to problem statement = faster response, greater efficacy, minimizes collateral damage, and garners more control over personnel exposure issues
• Complements large scale generator approach
• Capitalizes on government investment in ICA TriNova Products
