In water treatment today, two popular chemicals are used to disinfect water: Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) and Chlorine (Cl). While both chemicals effectively kill harmful microorganisms, some key differences make one more suitable for specific applications. For many years, Chlorine has been the most commonly used chemical for water treatment due to its ability to effectively…
Reverse Osmosis is a highly effective water purification process that uses a semi-permeable membrane to filter out impurities and contaminants from water. This process is widely used in industry and communities to provide clean, purified water that is safe for drinking and other uses. The reverse osmosis process is a water purification technology that involves…
Are you struggling with biofouling in your pre or post-reverse osmosis (RO) desalination processes? Biofouling is a common problem that occurs when microorganisms, plants, algae, or animals accumulate on the surface of the RO membrane, impeding water flow and reducing the efficiency of the process. Biofouling can lead to increased maintenance costs, decreased productivity, and…
Macrofouling is a widespread problem in seawater cooling disinfection applications. Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2 ) has emerged as a go-to solution for macrofouling control due to its superior efficiency and environmental performance compared to traditional treatments such as electrochlorination and bromine-based treatments. While ClO2 is more expensive than most traditional treatments, its economic benefits outweigh the…

Water treatment plant operators have long relied on chlorine gas systems to disinfect water. Chlorine gas is an effective method for destroying harmful bacteria and viruses in water. Still, it can also pose a significant risk to the health and safety of workers and the general public. Chlorine gas use for water treatment is still…
Disaster relief efforts are critical in providing aid and assistance to communities affected by natural disasters. One of the most critical aspects of disaster relief is ensuring that communities have access to clean drinking water. This is where Chlorine Dioxide (ClO₂) becomes a valuable tool in disaster relief efforts. Chlorine Dioxide is a powerful disinfectant…
Access to safe and clean drinking water is a fundamental human right, but it remains a challenge for millions worldwide. Contaminated water can lead to the spread of water-borne diseases and other health hazards. Various technologies have been developed over the years to address this issue to ensure that drinking water is safe and free…
