Traditionally, water utilities have used chlorine gas as the disinfectant of choice in their water treatment plants. However, recent publicly reported chlorine leakages and foreign terrorist attacks have raised concern regarding the safety of this practice.

Although the some of the more 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 ambient pressure chlorine gas.

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 15^th that needed for low strength (i.e. less than 0.8%) generated hypo.
