ON-SITE CHLORINE AND SODIUM HYPOCHLORITE GENERATION
KLORIGEN™
– GENERATING RESULTS
Considered Inherently Safe Technology (IST), Klorigen™ provides a safe and efficient alternative to traditional pressurized chlorine gas offers a lower cost option to commercial bulk-delivered sodium hypochlorite. This technology allows users to generate on-demand at the point of use, eliminating any possibility of hazardous gas release. Klorigen™ generators uniquely combine brine electrolysis with advanced membrane technology to deliver chlorine gas under a vacuum as well as co-product sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) available for pH elevation. Alternatively, the chlorine and sodium hydroxide products can be combined within the process to produce sodium hypochlorite at concentrations up to 15% (150 g/L).
APPLICATIONS
WATER AND WASTEWATER DISINFECTION Traditionally, water utilities have used chlorine gas as the disinfectant of choice in their treatment plants. However, as the global specter of terrorism grows and public safety issues continue to rise in prominence, concerns have been raised as to the future of this practice. Although some progressive public utilities are evaluating alternative technologies to pressurized chlorine gas, chlorine remains the most effective broadband disinfectant. In response to this preference, Klorigen™ on-site chlorine gas generators can facilitate the continuation of current disinfection methods while promoting safe practices through the use of chlorine gas at ambient pressure. Alternatively, water disinfection may be safely and effectively accomplished using Klorigen™ on-site generation of high strength sodium hypochlorite solution. Storage of 12.5% concentration requires less than one-fifteenth of that needed for "low-strength" (i.e. less than 0.8%) generated sodium hypochlorite.

M-SERIES The Klorigen™ M-Series chlorine generator is a smaller scale electrochemical system specifically intended for remote applications and designed for safe and cost effective production of chlorine gas and sodium hydroxide using food grade salt. These systems can also be configured to produce high quality commercial strength sodium hypochlorite at concentrations up to 10% (100 g/L). Production capacity ranges from 20 kg to 100 kg of equivalent chlorine. Klorigen™ M-Series systems eliminate the hazards typically associated with the use of pressurized chlorine gas and bulk-supplied sodium hypochlorite. M-Series units are ideal for industries and municipalities that are currently using or require a form of chlorine for disinfection, sterilisation or bleaching.
