Modern Water Treatment Systems play a critical role in ensuring clean, safe, and environmentally responsible water management. As water quality challenges become more complex, advanced technologies like GO2™ chlorine dioxide are transforming how facilities treat and disinfect wastewater. GO2™ offers significant advantages over traditional chlorine-based methods, making it a preferred choice for municipalities, industries, and treatment plants seeking dependable solutions.

One of the most notable strengths of GO2™ in Water Treatment Systems is its dual functionality as both a disinfectant and an oxidant. Unlike chlorine, which loses effectiveness due to hydrolysis, GO2™ maintains its biocidal activity across a broad pH range. This chemical stability ensures consistent performance even in fluctuating water conditions, making it ideal for diverse treatment environments.

Precision in dosing is another key advantage. Dosage requirements for GO2™ vary depending on contamination levels, but most municipal and industrial systems require no more than 5 ppm to achieve powerful disinfection. For sulfide odor control within a pH range of 5 to 9, a minimum of 5.2 ppm of GO2™ is necessary to oxidize 1 ppm of sulfide. GO2™ is also highly effective in phenol oxidation, requiring 1.5 ppm for pH levels under 8 and 3.3 ppm for pH levels over 10.

Effective odor control is essential in all Water Treatment Systems, and GO2™ excels in this area. It is non-reactive with ammonia and nitrogen-based compounds, enabling effective treatment at significantly lower doses than chlorine. GO2™ oxidizes sulfides without producing colloidal sulfur, eliminating the risk of secondary contamination. It also targets phenols, simple cyanides, iron, and manganese, contributing to cleaner, odor-free effluent.

Application of GO2™ is straightforward and user-friendly. Mixing its two components with tap water produces a 3% chlorine dioxide solution ready for dosing. For optimal performance, GO2™ should be added at a point that ensures complete mixing and proper distribution. Feed points must be placed below water levels to prevent volatilization, and simultaneous use with lime or powdered activated carbon should be avoided.

Accurate monitoring is vital in modern Water Treatment Systems. Residual levels of GO2™ chlorine dioxide should be measured using validated analytical methods such as the DPD-Glycine Method or the Amperometric Method II.

With its stability, efficiency, and ease of use, GO2™ is redefining how Water Treatment Systems achieve safe, reliable, and cost-effective water purification.
