1 CHLORINE DIOXIDE (ClO2) The Gold Standard of Complete Water Disinfection Solution FLORIDA ENVIRO SOLUTIONS LLC., The Authorized Representative & Distributor of Two Components Solid Forms of CHLORINE DIOXIDE (ClO 2) Manufactured by a Local Company based in San Francisco, California, USA FES (Florid Enviro-Solutions) is Very Knowledgeable in the business of Eco- Friendly Disinfection Applications and Uses of Chlorine Dioxide What is Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2)? ClO2 is a disinfectant that kills all waterborne micro-organism capable of destroying a wide variety of disease-causing bacteria, viruses, molds, algae (known as pathogens) and biofilms etc., About Chlorine Dioxide Chlorine dioxide has been used in drinking water since 1944 in USA. Its major advantage was considered to be in taste-and-odor control, along with its strong disinfection capabilities that has been widely recognized. As a common disinfectant now is used in many industries, including potable water, waste water, effluent water, the oil & gas industry, paper & pulp industry, cooling towers, pipeline and tank cleaning, poultry and livestock raising, post-harvest fruit and produce washing, horticulture, carcass washing, brewing and beverage production. Chlorine dioxide is a neutral chlorine compound. It is very different from elementary chlorine, both in its chemical structure and in its behavior. One of the most important qualities of chlorine dioxide is its high water solubility, especially in cold water. Chlorine dioxide does not hydrolyze when it enters water; it remains a dissolved gas in solution. Chlorine dioxide is approximately 10 times more soluble in water than chlorine. Chlorine dioxide (ClO 2) is a yellow-green gas with an odor similar to chlorine with excellent distribution, penetration and sterilization abilities due to its gaseous nature and high oxidation quality. Although chlorine dioxide has chlorine in its name, its properties are very different, much like carbon dioxide is different than elemental carbon. Chlorine dioxide has been recognized as a disinfectant since the early 1900 and has been approved by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for many applications. It has been demonstrated effective as a broad spectrum, Chlorine Dioxide (ClO 2 ) NSF/ANSI 60 (CERTIFIED) anti-inflammatory, bactericidal, fungicidal, and virucidal agent, as well as a deodorizer, and able to inactivate beta-lactams and destroy both pinworms and their eggs. Traditional chlorine dioxide generation equipment requires secure, fire-proof rooms and a high level of training, such that production is limited to authorized personnel. The application of equipment-generated chlorine dioxide is only suitable for high volume users due to high investment cost and the expensive costs of operation. However, recent development of an affordable Chlorine Dioxide in powder forms make easy to use everyone from a major urban water authority to a village well safely. The affordable system now is made different: add 2 powders to normal water. Use a simple tank with a simple dosing pump. The result is a 4,000 ppm +99% chlorine dioxide liquid concentrate. There is no wasted product. 100% of the concentrate is consumed in the target water, leaving zero by-products and zero residues.

3 3 ClO 2 Advantages Over Chlorine (Cl) ClO 2 More Effective, Less Cost and Kind to the Environment Chlorine Dioxide is considered higher yield & greater efficiency and has a higher oxidation capacity, with a lower oxidation strength than most species of chlorine, making it at least 2.6 times more powerful per PPM according to World Health Organization (WHO) CT values No carcinogenic by-products & no bad taste occurrences in water - Chlorine Dioxide acts only by oxidation and does not combine with organic compounds to form environmentally hazardous byproducts such as Trihalomethane (THM) and other chlorinated organic compounds that have been listed as potentially carcinogenic. example, 1,000,000 gallons needs to be treated, so locate 1, Liters since that is closest to the 1,000,000 target volume). Move across that row to the left to find the size of ClO 2 for that volume and concentration. In this example, it would be G-0500, the 500 L Kit. Less corrosive - Chlorine Dioxide has a lower oxidation potential and does not hydrolyze to form an acid, and therefore is less corrosive. Works over a wide ph - The effectiveness of chlorine is very ph dependent, and is almost ineffective above ph 8. Contrary to this Chlorine Dioxide is effective at ph Environmental safety is a key advantage of chlorine dioxide when comparing with alternative biocides such as chlorine and others. Chlorine Dioxide Product/ Dilution Matrix Examples How to use this Matrix to determine which product to use for the amount of water to be treated at a particular concentration of ClO 2. Identify what concentration is to be used for water treatment (for example, 0.5ppm). Locate 0.5 ppm on the top of the P/D Matrix. As you move down the column under that heading, locate the amount of water to be treated (for

4 MAIN ADVANTAGES OF CHLORINE DIOXDE (ClO2) Chlorine Dioxide is the 21st Century replacement for harmful chlorine gas which has been in use for over a century to disinfect drinking water, due to its numerous disadvantages and hazards. ClO 2 is considered a better water disinfection solution. At least 10 times more powerful than chlorine. Very effective against airborne pathogens when misted. ClO 2 Product was approved according to the World's most stringent laws and regulations. Chlorine Dioxide is USEPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency) and USFDA (US Federal Drugs Administration) approved and has been accepted by the USDA as a chemical intervention that can replace chlorine for the reduction of salmonella on carcasses in poultry processing plants. ClO 2 also has NSF 60 approval for using in human drinking water. ClO 2 is Environmentally Friendly Green Chemistry. ClO 2 Contributes to a better environment and to the general welfare of consumer by providing safer and healthier drinking water. 100% effective against all water-borne micro-organisms and spore forming bacteria (Bacteria, Viruses, Protozoa, Fungi, Algae etc.,). No Disinfection by Products (THM's, HAA's, MX and other carcinogenic compounds). Removes microbial slime for water distribution systems. ClO 2 is Non-Corrosive. Neutralizes bad odors and does not react in water to form toxic by-products. Effective over a broad range of ph: ClO 2 is Simple to use. Two Powder affordable solid components reduce equipment needs and maintenance costs. Very effective to improve water quality. Easy and safe to use, store and transport. Competitive cost when compared to traditional treatments. Chlorine Dioxide (ClO2) Applications and Uses Chlorine Dioxide product capable of performing wide range of functions and application some of them are: 1- Cooling Towers 2- Food Processing 3- Dairy and Poultry 4- Fruit and Vegetables 5- Fish Processing 6- Meat Processing 7- Hospitals 8- Waste Water 9- Water Distribution System 10- Potable water Cooling Tower Water Treatment Poultry Water Treatment for Breeder Poultry and Meat Processing
