Chlorine dioxide generator for water treatment
Millennium III™ Siemens Water Technologies

Chlorine Dioxide is a powerful disinfectant and oxidizing agent. It has been used for many years in water treatment systems for the elimination of chlorophenols , the oxidation of inorganic compounds such as iron and manganese, and in the control of taste, odor and color. It is recognized by the EPA as a primary disinfectant and is effective against viruses, bacteria and protozoa, including the cysts of Giardia and the oocysts of Cryptosporidium. Chlorine dioxide does not react with ammonia to form less-active chloramines. It will not form trihalomethanes (THM’s) or other chlorinated organic compounds, nor will it react with the many impurities that normally consume chlorine.

Chlorine dioxide has proved economical and effective when treating waters high in ammonia or organic nitrogen and in the destruction of phenol-based taste and odor causing compounds. Essentially, this is because chlorine dioxide is not affected by pH, thus it is a cost effective means of water treatment when the pH is high.

Siemens Water Technologies offers a broad range of chlorine dioxide generators, specialized chemical feed systems, and an extensive line of water treatment chemicals.
