PROBLEMS WITH CHLORINE-RESISTANT PATHOGENS?

Posted on

There is not known microorganism capable of building resistance against Bio-hydrox’s advanced oxidation. Several waterborne pathogens are chlorine-resistant. Among them, viruses, parasites, and bacteria that can cause hepatitis, gastroenteritis, cryptosporidiosis and Legionnaires’ disease make it thru the disinfection process and can still be found in finished water. Some treatment improvements like enhanced coagulation and filtration, and post-treatment options like UV radiation, are becoming more popular as a way to increase the biological safety of drinking water. Other alternatives are implemented in non-drinking water applications including swimming pools, water parks, and cooling systems.

Bio-hydrox is NSF approved for use in potable and non-potable water systems. Microorganisms cannot mutate and become resistant because advanced oxidation will destroy their DNA. Is that simple. The DNA molecule that carries the bacterium instructions for development and reproduction is gone forever. It works all the time even when pathogens are protected by a spore or cyst, or in a dormant state.

A NEW TRICK TO LOWER DISINFECTION BY-PRODUCTS

CAN CHLORINE DO BETTER??? YES IT CAN!.

Bio-hydrox can combine with Hypochlorite to help it work better while reducing DBPs. They have great affinity because Bio-hydrox is a chlorine product itself, however with a radically different molecular arrangement , a “Mineral Oxychloride Solution”, a combination of transition mineral chelates with chlorite ion as ligands forming oxygen bonds that break easily when energized by the mineral catalysts and causing the oxygen metabolites to spin-off, thus initiating a radical chain reaction.

Why is Bio-hydrox a chlorine compound? By definition, any compound that can produce hypochlorite ions, OCl-, is an active chlorine compound. This needs further clarification. We are a passive chlorine compound. Bio-hydrox oxidative power is mainly supported by hydroxyl radicals. When the water system reaches a level of saturation, the extra energy of the redox reactions causes chlorite ions to form oxygen bonds of its own and generate chlorine residual as OCl, not a good germicidal and not a good oxidant, and also not the acidifying HOCl. Bio-hydrox does not lower the pH of the water. Got it?

Put us to the test! Replace 10% Hypo with the same volume of Bio-hydrox and watch your numbers change! Reduce TOC, DBP, BOD, COD. https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6563095110500798465/

COULD YOU SELL YOUR EFFLUENT IF IT WAS CLEANER?

COULD YOU MAKE MONEY SELLING YOUR WWTP EFFLUENT IF IT WAS JUST A LITTLE CLEANER?

Not enough funds? No problem! Bio-hydrox can increase the efficiency of your secondary clarifier by reducing organic load, supporting the formation of bigger flocs and accelerating settling. If your WWTP does not have secondary clarifiers, Bio-hydrox can be used as a secondary treatment and further improve water quality.

Bio-hydrox is an inexpensive alternative to bio-reactors and secondary treatments. Advanced oxidation is so fast-acting that within minutes of application you can achieve similar TOC/BOD/COD % removal results in the treated flow without requiring structural changes, facility expansion or bugs.

Put us to the test! You can update your process with -conventional secondary treatments like- water quality improvements with just a drum and a dosing pump! We have three manufacturing facilities strategically located to deliver anywhere in the country within 3 to 5 days.
