Water Hygiene - Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)
Water hygiene is concerned with the effective
management and disinfection of water to prevent pathogen proliferation,
especially in stored water systems.
Because of its highly effective biocidal characteristics, chlorine
dioxide is ideal for use in water
hygiene activities. ClO2 has consistently been shown to be the
best molecule for eradicating the causative organism of Listeriosis
and Legionnaires' Disease. 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.
CIO2 effectively destroys biofilm whilst providing a lasting residual
throughout the distribution system to prevent its reformation.
In the UK, the Building Services Research and Information Association
(BSRIA) has recommended CIO2 as the best available technology for
control of Legionella in hot and cold water systems.
