Chlorine dioxide for drinking water has long been recognized as one of the most effective disinfectants available. Its superior biocidal and oxidizing properties make it ideal for eliminating harmful microorganisms and improving water quality. However, traditional methods of producing chlorine dioxide have faced numerous challenges, including high costs, safety risks, and inefficiency, limiting accessibility for many small and medium water systems.
Historically, equipment-generated chlorine dioxide required significant investments in specialized machinery, precursor chemicals, and trained personnel. Production involved fire-proof rooms and highly controlled procedures due to the explosive nature of the gas. Furthermore, over 99% of the produced chlorine dioxide was often wasted, making this approach impractical for smaller operations. Similarly, liquid chlorine dioxide, produced from acidified sodium chlorite, posed its own problems. The chemical process was imprecise and generated harmful by-products from free chlorine radicals, posing additional risks to water safety and quality.
GO2™ represents a breakthrough in chlorine dioxide technology for drinking water. Unlike traditional methods, GO2™ is simple, safe, and highly efficient. Its production involves combining two powders with normal or deionized water using a basic tank and dosing pump, resulting in a 4,000 ppm liquid chlorine dioxide solution with over 95% purity. This method eliminates waste, ensures 100% of the product is used in the target water, and leaves no harmful residues or by-products.
GO2™ is suitable for a wide range of users—from major urban water authorities to small village wells—offering an affordable and scalable alternative to conventional chlorine dioxide systems. Its ease of use, safety, and high efficiency make it an ideal solution for drinking water treatment, ensuring reliable disinfection while minimizing operational risks and costs.
For municipalities, industries, and communities seeking a modern, environmentally responsible, and effective disinfectant, chlorine dioxide for drinking water produced by GO2™ represents the 21st-century solution. It eliminates the problems of outdated production methods and provides a safe, consistent, and cost-effective approach to water treatment, redefining how chlorine dioxide can be used to protect public health and water quality.
