Family of Chlorine Dioxide Generation Technologies
CD30™ is ChemTreat’s program for chlorine dioxide application. We recognize that most biocides present unique safety and handling concerns and designed this program with safety in mind. By using the most appropriate generation technology, ChemTreat’s SpecOx™ team develops individualized treatment solutions to solve unconventional problems. CD30™ provides a turnkey solution with technical, installation, and monitoring support.
Monochloramine-Based Biocide
Millicide™ is a monochloramine-based program for microbial control in particularly difficult-to-treat recirculating and cooling process waters. ChemTreat’s SpecOx™ team has developed a patent-pending on-site generator to ensure proper reactant control for efficient Millicide™ conversion.
Bromide-Activated Chloramine (BAC)
BAC is an enhanced monochloramine chemistry. This patented technology is licensed to ChemTreat and has a long history of microbial control and biofilm removal success in applications such as refining, paper machines, and many others.
Liquid Stabilized Halogen Technologies
ChemTreat’s patent-pending, dual-purpose SurfClean™ is a hydrogen stabilizer and biodipersant. As a halogen stabilizer, this product works by creating a chlorine “reservoir” and converts a portion of free residual to total residual. As a biodispersant, SurfClean™ has surfactant qualities designed to remove and disperse biofilms, increasing the exposed surface area and thus increasing overall efficacy.
Other Technologies
ChemTreat’s SpecOx™ team utilizes other advanced chemistries, on-site generated chemistries, and specialty oxidants (such as mixed oxidants). Our team continues to add new technologies as they become available.
