Chlorine Dioxide (ClO₂)
Chlorine dioxide (ClO₂) is a highly effective biocide, targeting bacteria (including Legionella), viruses, and protozoa. Unlike chlorine, it dissolves physically without chemical reaction, killing microorganisms via oxidative damage, often using fewer chemicals.
Applications:
-
Effective across a wide pH and temperature range,
-
Breaks down biofilms and eliminates bacteria throughout water systems, including tanks and pipework,
-
Generated on-site with precise dosing,
-
Provides residual disinfection, protecting the entire system.
Key Benefits:
-
Approved for potable water (DWI), dosing <0.5 ppm,
-
Reliable performance across pH and temperature variations,
-
Superior efficacy vs. chlorine for Legionella and Pseudomonas control,
-
Residual disinfectant action throughout the system,
-
Low corrosivity, extending pipework lifespan,
-
Simple monitoring and compliance testing.
Environmental Safety
Chlorine dioxide produces mainly inorganic by-products (chlorite → chloride), minimizing environmental impact. Modern dosing systems allow precise control of dose rates, ensuring effective disinfection while remaining eco-friendly.
Sanosil
PM Technical Services offers , a multi-component oxidising biocide combining hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) with silver ions (Ag) for powerful, long-lasting disinfection.
Key features:
-
Highly effective against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and biofilms,
-
Low environmental impact; biodegradable components,
-
Safe for various water systems,
-
Residual protection for continued sanitisation.
Sanosil meets the demand for disinfectants that are both effective and sustainable, providing reliable water hygiene while minimizing environmental impact.
Applications:
Sanosil is up to 20 times more powerful than hydrogen peroxide alone and suitable for:
-
Drinking water systems,
-
Air-conditioning plants & cooling towers,
-
Swimming pools, spas, and domestic water systems,
-
Hospitals, pharmaceutical environments, and food production,
-
Agricultural and livestock settings.
It is safe for potable water, breaking down into water and oxygen with no toxic residues. Effective against Legionella pneumophila, E. coli, Pseudomonas, Influenza A & B, Campylobacter, Salmonella, MRSA, VRE, and other pathogens, Sanosil protects both surfaces and water systems.
Key Benefits:
-
Broad-spectrum efficacy against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and biofilms,
-
Effective across 0°C–95°C,
-
Simple dosing with standard equipment,
-
No pH alteration at recommended concentrations,
-
Eco-friendly; decomposes into water and oxygen,
-
Proven control of Legionella pneumophila,
-
Long-term protection against recontamination,
-
Low corrosivity, preserving system integrity,
-
Safe, non-toxic, non-flammable, with no odour or taste impact
PM Technical Services provides complete Sanosil treatment programs, including system assessments, tailored advice, and regulatory guidance to maintain safe, compliant, and microbiologically clean water systems.
