What is the difference between activated and non-activated?
Non-activated and activated stabilized chlorine dioxide have very different effects throughout your plant. Unactivated stabilized chlorine dioxide works well as a bacteriostat and a deodorant. In the seafood industry this can be especially beneficial. Activated stabilized chlorine dioxide is a solution that has a lowered pH. By doing this you are unleashing the power of chlorine dioxide. You will get the highest antimicrobial activity against a broad spectrum of microorganisms, bacteria, spore formers and viruses. Activated stabilized chlorine dioxide is effective over a pH range from 1 to 10 and has no corrosive potential, when used properly. Activated stabilized chlorine dioxide resists neutralization by organic load, does not produce toxic by-products and is very active against bio-film.
