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
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.
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).
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
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
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
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.
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
Dioxide is being used in
a wide variety of
different industries,
across many different
applications
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
Pure
ClO2
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
