Disinfection Solutions

In the domain of potable water, wastewater treatment, or Legionella mitigation, chlorine remains the preeminent choice, delivering unmatched efficacy, reliability, and long-term prevention post-application. Current legislation increasingly demands robust disinfection assurances while also stipulating that the disinfectants used must not adversely affect human health.

Electro-chlorination emerges as a straightforward, more effective, and cost-efficient alternative to traditional chlorination methods.

Electro-chlorination distinguishes itself by minimizing the generation of harmful by-products (such as chlorates, perchlorates, and trihalomethanes) associated with conventional chlorination, which are known to pose risks to human health and are subject to imminent regulatory oversight. Its capacity to generate electrochemical chlorine is virtually limitless, catering to the needs of drinking water or wastewater treatment facilities, as well as adaptable for use in cooling towers to prevent Legionella outbreaks. The production scale of chlorine via electro chlorination can vary from as little as 1 kg Cl2/hour to multiple tons of chlorine per hour. Additionally, the system’s design allows for both mobility in containerized formats and permanence in large-scale installations.

Key Advantages Over Alternative Technologies Include:

– Significant reduction or maintenance below legal thresholds of undesirable chlorination by-products.

– Potential for zero net energy consumption facilities, leveraging the by-product hydrogen for cogeneration at the client’s behest and incorporating solar panels for a fully energy-autonomous operation.

– Compatibility with environmental sustainability and climate change mitigation efforts.

– Operational (OPEX) and Capital (CAPEX) expenditures significantly lower than those associated with other technologies.

– High degree of automation and remote operation capabilities, enhancing ease of use and operational efficiency.

Chlorine dioxide (ClO2) is a highly potent, fast acting bactericide and virucide that is effective at concentrations as low as 0.1 ppm.

With collaboration with our partner, Accepta, we are a
Supplier of the Activ-Ox Instant chlorine dioxide generator that uses state-of-the-art technology to safely create carefully controlled amounts of consistently high purity chlorine dioxide ready for use.

Due to the patented Activ-Ox chemistry the dosing system has been redesigned to be simpler and more cost effective than conventional chlorine dioxide generator systems.

Activ-Ox does not need a reaction chamber but instead uses a compact reaction Tee to treat directly within the water line being treated with the highest yield of Chlorine Dioxide.

With minimal contact time, chlorine dioxide is highly effective against many pathogenic organisms including bacterial spores,Legionella,Tuberculosis, MRSA, VRE, Listeria, Salmonella,amoebal cysts, Giardia cysts, E. coli, Cryptosporidium and more.Importantly, chlorine dioxide also destroys biofilm so bacterial re-growth is significantly impeded.The Activ-Ox chlorine dioxide system is extremely effective at penetrating biofilms and controlling amoebae, both of which can encourage the growth of Legionella bacteria.

At DRC-Chemtech, we are proud to present our advanced Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection System, a cornerstone product designed to address the critical need for safe, efficient, and environmentally friendly water treatment solutions. Our UV system harnesses the power of ultraviolet light to inactivate microorganisms at a cellular level, providing a chemical-free method for disinfecting water without altering its taste, odor, or pH level.
