ClorDiSys Solutions approaches decontamination differently
than other chlorine dioxide gas companies. We strive for excellent process
control, high quality, and outstanding safety. Our chlorine dioxide gas is
registered with the US EPA as a sterilant. It is proven capable of providing a
6-log (99.9999% reduction) of all viruses, bacteria, fungi, molds and spores.
Our chlorine dioxide gas is the only one registered at this highest
antimicrobial level.
The ClorDiSys method of generating chlorine dioxide produces
a 100% pure gas. Other methods of generating chlorine dioxide mix an acid and a
base which forms a chlorine dioxide solution which is then off-gassed to
fumigate a space. That generation method
produces two acidic components, acidified sodium chlorite and chlorous acid, alongside
chlorine dioxide which makes these methods more corrosive. Our method of
generating pure chlorine dioxide gas is accomplished by passing a low
concentration chlorine gas through a proprietary sodium chlorite cartridge to
convert the chlorine gas into pure chlorine dioxide gas. This allows our
process to be safe when decontaminating stainless steel, galvanized metals,
anodized aluminum, epoxy surfaces, electronics, and the most common materials
of construction. Typically, if water will not corrode an item, neither will our
CD. ClorDiSys’ chlorine dioxide gas has been proven to the FDA to leave behind
no measurable residue. Once the gas has been removed, the area is safe and does
not require additional cleanup.
ClorDiSys uses a highly accurate UV-vis spectrophotometer to
measure the concentration. Photometers are able to measure precise locations, such
as hot spots, in order to provide greater confidence (and data for regulators)
that those locations underwent a specific exposure dosage. Our Decon Service
team measures the concentration of chlorine dioxide gas throughout the entire
process at multiple locations in order to ensure that all locations reach the
proper dosage necessary to achieve a 6-log sporicidal reduction. Other chlorine
dioxide gas decontamination processes monitor one location using a less
accurate chemical sensor, making the process less repeatable and reliable.
