What is XzioX?
Posted Wednesday, 01 September 2010 By Administrator
XzioX is made from mixing two liquid reagents with water to produce a high purity 0.35 % (3500 ppm) chlorine dioxide solution. XzioX /chlorine Dioxide is an efficacious algaecide, bactericide, fungicide and virucide that has shown superior performance over chlorine and chlorine-type disinfectants

XzioX Chlorine dioxide is not the same as chlorine; it is radically different in its properties despite sharing the word “chlorine”. Although both chlorine dioxide and chlorine are oxidising agents (or electron receivers), chlorine dioxide is significantly more effective as a biocide and disinfectant than chlorine. This is because chlorine molecules have the capacity to accept only two electrons, whilst chlorine dioxide has the capacity to accept five. The chemistry is more similar to ozone than chlorine.

XzioX chlorine dioxide is far more environmentally friendly than other oxidising biocides and disinfectants including chlorine and bromine. Substituting chlorine dioxide for chlorine eliminates the formation of toxic halogenated disinfection by-products including trihalomethanes (THMs) and other chlorinated compounds that are harmful to the environment. In fact chlorine dioxide actually helps to remove substances that can form trihalomethanes. The disinfection is by oxidation as chlorine dioxide does not have either addition or substitution reactions associated with its chemistry.

XzioX chlorine dioxide is a strong bactericide and virucide at concentrations as low as 0.1 ppm. It will eliminate both planktonic and sessile bacteria; and rapidly remove problematic biofilm. With minimal contact time, it is highly effective against many pathogenic organisms including:
• Bacterial spores
• Legionella (Legionnaires' disease)
• Biofilm
• Tuberculosis
• Salmonella
• Cryptosporidium
• Giardia cysts
• Coliforms
• MRSA
• VRE
• Listeria
• Shigella
• Algae
• Amoebae
• Taste and odour
• THM/HMM formation
• Planktonic and sessile organisms
