Review: Large Scale GeneratorsOLD Technology to Generate Chlorine Dioxide

Requires a large fixed generating system using sodium chlorite and an

acid activator in a mixing chamber

Cumbersome and potentially dangerous, also require large capital

outlay for purchase and setup

Generally used for large water treatment systems

Requires trained personnel and are not mobile

Generate low percentages of actual chlorine dioxide

Page 3: Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

Review: Acidified Sodium ChloriteOLD Technology to Generate Chlorine Dioxide

Utilizes sodium chlorite and usually, an acid activator

Leaves behind high levels of chlorite ion

Produces relatively low percentages of chlorine dioxide

User must mix two chemicals to achieve activation

Also known as stabilized chlorine dioxide

The SMT Patented ProcessA New Generation Method

SMT has developed a patented

micro-reactor or sachet delivery

system, which creates pure

aqueous chlorine dioxide, and is

usable in a spray bottle.

No Special

training/handling is

required. SMT products are

patented, portable and

environmentally-aware.

Product generation requires very little

time for the chemical reaction to create

enough pure chlorine dioxide to disinfect

a hospital room, classroom, lab

equipment, etc.

SMT

offers

various

packaging

constructs

The sodium chlorite and activator are maintained

in the micro-reactor until water is added. The

addition of water triggers the chemical reaction,

producing pure aqueous chlorine dioxide. It is

simple to use, yet a highly effective biocide.

Page 5: Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

The SMT Patented Process

After adding water, water molecules

permeate the membrane starting the

chemical reaction. As ClO₂ gas is

generated, it traverses the

membrane and enters in the

surrounding water. The membrane

traps the reaction’s leftovers,

keeping it out of the solution thereby

leaving only pure ClO₂ into solution.

Ultra-Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) from SMT

PURITY

A revolutionary way for

anyone to acquire ultra-pure

chlorine dioxide.

SMT’s patented micro reactor

delivers greater than 99%

pure chlorine dioxide into

solution.

POINT-OF-USE

There is no need for capital

equipment (just add water -

anywhere, anytime).

There exists no delivery of

unwanted impurities or

disinfection byproducts.

PERFORMANCE

Pure ClO2 offers superior

efficacy and material

compatibility.

Pure ClO2 is highly

compatible and a very

effective disinfectant (even at

low use concentrations).

Page 7: Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

Byproducts of Chlorine Dioxide Generation

Chlorite (ClO2-)

Chlorate (ClO3-)

Chloride (Cl-)

With generated and stabilized

chlorine dioxide, some

unwanted byproduct residuals

may be discovered in very

high levels, however, only

trace elements of such exist

in that of SMT’s proprietary

generation method.

Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) is NOT Chlorine

Dangers and Setbacks if Using Chlorine

Corrosive & toxic (in all forms); forms disinfection byproducts,

thereby presenting health hazards

Efficacy against pathogens is very pH dependent

Changes taste and odor of food

Page 11: Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) is NOT Chlorine, cont.

Poor stability in water

In a best case scenario, chlorine offers 1/20th decontamination

capability in comparison to SMT’s ultra-pure chlorine dioxide

In most cases, chlorine offers only 1/200th decontamination

capability when compared to SMT’s ultra-pure chlorine dioxide

Page 12: Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

Chlorine Dioxide vs. Sodium Hypochlorite

ClO2 has a disinfection advantage which is 2.3 times greater than

that of “chlorine bleach”

ClO2 is 10 times more soluble in water than chlorine bleach

ClO2 is a true gas in solution and is very stable

ClO2 does chlorinate

ClO2 is safer, easier for employees

Page 13: Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

SMT’s Pure Chlorine Dioxide Products Offer Many Advantages

Generate specific concentration of pure chlorine dioxide in a specific time

frame

Maintain superior material compatibility and broad range use profile

Provide ultra-pure Chlorine Dioxide at point-of-use

Convenient and simple to use; fast release aqueous and gas phase

applications

Generate at neutral pH, eliminate bio-slime

No certifications to use, handle or store; no hazardous waster disposal

Pure ClO2 Offers Bio-Slime Eradication: What is Bio-Slime?

Bacteria bind together in

a sticky web of tangled

polysaccharide fibers

which anchor them to

surfaces and to each

other.

This slimy secretion

creates an impenetrable

layer, known as bio-

slime that allows the

bacteria to live and

proliferate.

The older the

buildup, the more

resistant it

becomes to

eradication.

Page 16: Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

Advantages of ClO2 Against Bio-Slime:

Chlorine and bromine cannot penetrate bioslime – pure chlorine dioxide

(ClO2) is able to do so very effectively

Biocides must oxidize effectively and at high capacity in order to

penetrate and kill the organisms within the bio-slime; Pure ClO2 is a

powerful oxidizer

With a powerful oxidizer, oxidation bacteria have little chance of

resistance to its method of attack

Where Can I Use Pure Chlorine Dioxide?

Water supply line cleaning and sanitization

Surface sanitization and disinfection in health care

virtually any hard non-porous surface for disinfection, any area for

deodorization

Beverage dispensing equipment and pumps

Spoilage and bacteria reduction in food safety, horticulture and

agriculture

Deodorization in manufacturing

Disinfection of clinical equipment

Animal barns and facilities

Virtually endless application potential and custom protocol development

from SMT

SMT’s Pure Chlorine

a wide variety of

different industries,

across many different

applications

Page 18: Pure Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)

Will It Harm Materials in My Facility?

It will not damage most plastics and

rubbers; it generates at a neutral pH

It is non-corrosive, it is non-chlorinating

It is highly compatible, it rinses rapidly

Some applications require no rinse

SMT offers a very broad material

compatibility portfolio

Is Pure ClO2 Easy to Use?

Yes! Our patented system generates ultra-pure chlorine dioxide at the point of

use. It requires no special training or handling and is portable and easy to

activate.

Our system is highly effective and is so even at much lower concentrations

than other biocides.

Pure chlorine dioxide can be sprayed on a surfaces and left to air dry

Pure chlorine dioxide is environmentally-aware, user-friendly
