Chlorine dioxide water treatment tablets.
Chlorine dioxide clo 2 is now universally recognised as one of the most effective biocidal agents available for a wide range of industrial and domestic water treatment applications.
These water purifying tablets are the safest and most effective form of chemical water disinfection and unlike chlorine have no noticeable aftertaste.
For higher concentrations simply add.
Chlorine dioxide kills bacteria viruses and cysts in water including giardia and cryptosporidium.
Unlike free chlorine familiar as household bleach or other halogen chemicals such as iodine chlorine dioxide does not create potentially harmful by products.
A solution of high purity chlorine dioxide is created in minutes.
Each tablet releases a minimum 600 parts per million available chlorine dioxide per litre of water.
Two drops of unscented 5 bleach can be added per liter or quart of clear water then allowed to stand covered for 30 to 60 minutes.
The drinking water treatment tablets are individually wrapped for easy chlorine dioxide water treatment for camping hiking and travel.
Still despite chlorine based halazone tablets falling from favor for portable water purification chlorine based bleach may nonetheless safely be used for short term emergency water disinfection.
Chlorine dioxide has been used by municipal water treatment plants to kill a variety of waterborne pathogens since the late 1940s.
Pop emergency water purification tablets into an opaque bottle for water treatment for drinking water with improved taste.
