Chlorine Dioxide - Water hygiene
is concerned with the effective management and disinfection
of water to prevent pathogen proliferation, especially
in stored water systems.
Biocidal Performance
Because of its highly effective biocidal characteristics,
chlorine
dioxide is ideal for use in water hygiene activities.
Chlorine dioxide has consistently been shown to be one
of the best molecules for eradicating the causative
organism of both Legionnaires' disease and Listeriosis.
It also controls other potentially dangerous bacteria
such as Salmonella, Shigella, E. coli and other coliforms.
It is also effective against Giardia cysts, algae and
amoebae, planktonic and sessile organisms.
Chlorine dioxide effectively destroys biofilm whilst
providing a lasting residual throughout the distribution
system to prevent its reformation.
Best Available Technology
In the UK, the Building Services Research and Information
Association (BSRIA) has recommended chlorine dioxide
as the best available technology for control of Legionella
in hot and cold water systems.
