Which is the easy & safest way for water Disinfection
Today’s TopicToday’s Topic
• Ozone
There are many ways to disinfect water.There are many ways to disinfect water.
It can be done by…
• Ionization• UV
• Chemicals • Etc.

Chlorine is the most common chemical disinfectant but the question is:
Is disinfection with Chlorine really safe and reliable?
Chemical disinfectionChemical disinfection
1.Use of chlorine is carcinogenic in drinking water (Mutagen X) Harvard Medical/ Barcelona Study 2007.
2. Use of chlorine causes TriHaloMethanes (THM) e.g. chloroform, bromodichloromethane, bromoform bromochloromethane. 3. Use of chlorine causes haloacetic acids (HAA) mono-,di and trichloroacetic acids and mono- and bromoacetic acids.
4. Mutagen X cancer potency is 170 times greater than chloroform. MX, THM and HAA are linked to cancer, miscarriages, stillbirths and birth defects
This is what you are exposed to:This is what you are exposed to:
1. Chlorine does not kill ALL micro-organisms in water
2. Chlorine is pH dependant
3. Chlorine is corrosive
4. Chlorine is hazardous to transport, store and use
5. Chlorine does not effectively remove the bio-film & algae.
6. Chlorine generates by-products that are a proven and permanent risk for human health.
Other limitations of chlorineOther limitations of chlorine
It has Chlorine in the name but is NOT ChlorineCompare:
H20 is 2 parts Hydrogen gas and 1 part Oxygen
= Water and NOT Hydrogen nor Oxygen
So ClO2 is VERY different from Chlorine!!
2Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)
It is a gas that explodes when in contact with air!
Difficult and dangerous to deliver to water
When delivered to water only 60%-70% pure
The remaining 30%-40% are still dangerous and toxic residues
However:
As such however the BEST disinfectant existing says the WHO
Improved purity and stability make it safer and more effective!
Facts about “traditional” Chlorine Dioxide:
To develop an innovative and revolutionary new concept that removes all side effects and by-products known from
existing disinfectants.
Thus to make a safe and clean disinfectant !
What was the challenge?What was the challenge?
A sublime disinfection power
No more dangerous by-products
Safe to human and animals
Numerous applications
A revolution in the world of water disinfection
If we could make a pure ClOIf we could make a pure ClO22 solution in water solution in water what would that mean?what would that mean?
After 8 years of intensive research, scientist were able to generate a pure ClO2 dissolved in water and called it:
Today we present you this revolutionToday we present you this revolution
1. A very powerful disinfectant2. A cleaner of Bio-contamination (Bio-film & Bio-fouling)
What is What is DiamondDiamondoxideoxide
1. A 2-component liquid kit delivering:
99.99% pure 0.75% Chlorine Dioxide solution
2. A powerful oxidising agent of the FULL spectrum of
micro-organisms
3. A product with the highest quality standards
4. A proven concept
5. An environmental friendly and 100% SAFE
disinfectant.
6. Effective in a broad Ph range (4-10)
7. Easy to use without further big investments
What is What is DiamondDiamondoxideoxide : The disinfectant : The disinfectant
• 100% effective against all water-borne micro-organisms andspore forming bacteria (Bacteria, Viruses, Protozoa, Fungi, Mould, Parasites, larval eggs, and Sediment) etc.
• 1 liter disinfects up to 150,000 liters of water
• Destroys algae-related taste and odour compounds(No taste, No smell)
• When Diamondoxide is applied the end products are a fraction of sodium sulphate (Na2SO4) and sodium chloride (NaCl). These substances are common in water;
What What DiamondDiamondoxideoxide does does
• Does not chlorinate organic materials; no chlorates, chlorites, chloramines. NO FREE CHLORINES!!!
• Does not form THM’s, HAA’s and other organic compounds related to carcinogens (cancer)
• No build-up of resistance in target micro-organisms
• No residues formed
• No corrosion; i.e. of water distribution system, pipes, pumps, filters, domestic/commercial air conditioners, taps, showers, industrial equipment/factories

Bio-film is the film of dirt, residues and micro-organisms in pipes, filters, pumps etc.
.
What is Bio-film / Bio-foulingWhat is Bio-film / Bio-fouling
1. Chlorine does NOT remove both layers2. Chlorine cannot penetrate Bio-film and kill bacteria living in
and behind this Bio-film. 3. Chlorine can only corrode the top layer.4. Chlorine dioxide and Ionization penetrate the Bio-film.5. Only complete removal of the Bio-film guarantees 100% save
water at the tap6. Chlorine dioxide removes the Bio-film and prevents the
growth by a low continuous dosing.

Applications of Applications of DiamondDiamondoxideoxide
Safe, reliable and simple water Disinfection
How to use it
• Simple instructions
• Water volume
• Component A first
• Component B second
• Wait for 1-5 hours
(depending on temperature)
• Diamondoxide ready for
application
• Dosage rates according to your requirement
• Simple (standard) dosing equipment and a PE-HD tank;
• Residual is measured by DPD Colorimetric Method (DPD 1);
• Residual is measured by ORP equipment;• Residual is measured by Chlorine Dioxide
Sensor• Thick PE-HD storage tank (black colored).
Dose/MeasureDose/Measure
The dosing capacity of 1 Liter Diamondoxide is calculated as following:
Diamondoxide 0.75% = 7,5 gram ClO2 per liter = 7500 ppm/mg per liter
1 liter of Diamondoxide can disinfect:
at 0.05 ppm dosing= 7500 ppm/0.02 ppm = 150.000 liter of water. at 0.10 ppm dosing= 7500 ppm/0.10 ppm = 75.000 liter of water.
orVolume of water to be disinfected x dosage rate = ClO2
7500 ppm
