Catalytic Chlorine Dioxide System available in the UK 30 April 2019

Written by Jill Cooper | 30 Apr 2019

B&V Chemicals, the water treatment chemicals and equipment specialist, is now able to supply Catalysts, parts and training operating ClO2IX® systems delivering high quality, safe Chlorine Dioxide generation with an instant 700 PPM of 95% purity at 9kg-90kg/day.

An altogether better solution

We are now a UK partner distributor for DWW/ClO2IX® and their proven Chlorine Dioxide generation plant solution:

In order to make Chlorine Dioxide, chlorous acid must first be formed. The ClO2IX® systems produce a solution of chlorous acid without residual Na+ by using cation exchange resin in the H+ form. This removes the Na+ from the sodium chlorite and replaces it with H+ to form pure chlorous acid.

Once the pure chlorous acid is formed, the reaction to Chlorine Dioxide can commence. By utilizing catalytic technology, the ClO2IX® systems convert virtually all (> 98.5%) of the chlorous acid to Chlorine Dioxide. This occurs instantaneously. The resultant dilute 700 mg/l Chlorine Dioxide product contains no chlorine and virtually no chlorite. Because of the ability for the ClO2IX® systems to dispense in a continuous rather than a batch process, the need for onsite storage of Chlorine Dioxide is removed.
