Chlorine dioxide tablet used at home

Chlorine dioxide is a multifunctional compound has proven its ability for microbiological control (including biofilm and legionella bacteria), odour control, disinfection, sanitation and pollutant oxidation. It can be effectively used as a Disinfectant, Sanitizer, Tuberculocide, Virucide, Fungicide, Algaecide, Slimicide, Deodorizer. Like ozone, chlorine dioxide is soluble as a true gas.

The ClO2 molecule remains a true gas in solution‐making it more energetic and able to reach all points in a system. Because it is a true gas and soluble in virtually anything, it can penetrate

the bacterial slime layers (biofilm).

Finally, chlorine dioxide breaks down to sodium chloride. This along with the failure to form toxic and carcinogenic chlorination by‐products and produce a build up of toxic organic or inorganic by‐products like bromates makes chlorine dioxide the most eco‐friendly biocide that can be used.
