****!!!!****!!!!**** {ICA TriNova} "method for treating an object with chlorine dioxide gas, comprising contacting the object with chlorine dioxide gas while exposing the object to less than 1000 lux of light. The disclosed method minimizes chlorine containing residue on the surface of the object. The object can be a raw agricultural commodity (RAC) such as a raw fruit or vegetable." "Residues on the walls of each jar were quantitatively recovered by washing the walls sequentially with 4-50 mL aliquots of nanopure water and combining the aliquots with additional water to bring the total volume to 250 mL. These washings were analyzed by ion chromatography for chlorate and perchlorate ions. Based on reaction profiling of these particle mixtures, the weights of the particles provided within the TYVEK sachets were adjusted so that, upon reacting, a total of 1.6 mg of ClO2 would have been produced in each jar during the 2 hour period. " "Gas Chamber Studies Show Chlorate and Perchlorate Ions can be Minimized and in the Case of Perchlorate Eliminated when Fumigation is Performed in the Substantial Absence of Light when RACs are Present" "At 120 minutes, chlorine dioxide concentrations... fell well below expected concentrations, likely due to system leaks or to chlorine dioxide reacting with the exposure chambers themselves or with the silicone sealant used on the tanks. When tomatoes were present in the treatment chambers, chlorine dioxide gas was measurable only through 30 minutes for two replicates and through 60 minutes for one replicate. These data clearly indicate that tomatoes acted as a chlorine dioxide sink, consistent with studies using radiolabel showing the propensity for chlorine dioxide consumption by biologic materials, especially those tissues with a porous surface"

Comparison of Chlorine Dioxide and Ozone as Oxidants for the Degradation of Volatile Organic Compounds
Comparison of Chlorine Dioxide and Ozone as Oxidants for the Degradation of Volatile Organic Compounds
"The results show that dimethyl trisulfide and isoprene were substantially degraded into other by-products, including methane sulfonyl chloride and sulfur dioxide, during oxidation by chlorine dioxide and ozone, respectively. In contrast, 1-bromopropane, 2,3-butanedione and 1,1,2-trichloroethane have slow reaction kinetics and did not break down completely. Degradation of dimethyl trisulfide by chlorine dioxide and ozone follows the second order kinetics with half-lives of 2.2 min and 24 min, respectively. On the other hand, isoprene follows the first order reaction kinetics with rate constants of 0.4051 min-1 and 0.02244 min-1 and half-lives of 1.73 min and 32 min for degradation using ozone and chlorine dioxide, respectively. iv The oxidative degradation of 1-bromopropane, dimethyl trisulfide, and 2,3-butanedione by chlorine dioxide were more efficient than their reactions with ozone. However, the degradation of isoprene and 1,1,2-trichloroethane showed a greater reactivity toward ozone compared to chlorine dioxide. Most of the reaction products of oxidative degradation such as acetone, ethanol, formic acid, and dimethyl ether are chemically benign. But there are also by-products such as methane sulfonyl chloride, sulfur dioxide, chloroform, and cyanogen bromide that require further toxicological study."

A Novel UVA/ClO2 Advanced Oxidation Process for the Degradation of Micropollutants in Water
"At a ClO2 dosage of 74 μM (5.0 mg L–1 as ClO2) and a UV fluence at 47.5 mJ cm–2, the UVA365/ClO2 AOP generated a spectrum of reactive species, including chlorine oxide radicals (ClO•), chlorine atoms (Cl•), hydroxyl radicals (HO•), and ozone at a concentration of ∼10–13, ∼10–15, ∼10–14, and ∼10–7 M, respectively. A kinetic model to simulate the reactive species generation in the UVA365/ClO2 AOP was established, validated against the experimental results, and used to predict the pseudo-first-order rate constants and relative contributions of different reactive species to the degradation of 19 micropollutants in the UVA365/ClO2 AOP. Compared to the well-documented UVC254/chlorine AOP, the UVA365/ClO2 AOP produced similar levels of reactive species at similar oxidant dosages but was much less pH-dependent and required much lower energy input, with much lower formation of chloro-organic byproducts and marginal formation of chlorite and chlorate.

"Chlorine Dioxide is introduced to the pulp in the D0 tower where it reacts for approximately 1 hour. This fi rst stage chemical reaction removes most of the lignin binding agents in the pulp without destroying the carbohydrates, which would weaken the fi nal product. pH is maintained at a fairly low value (approx 2 - 4 pH) to insure a rapid chemical reaction. A higher pH level would consume more ClO2 for a given degree of bleaching. Temperatures can vary between 45 to 85°C (113 to 185°F)."

Based on ERPG data, such low-level exposure to ClO2 gas is not life-threatening. In fact, more recent studies indicate that ClO2 gas at low levels, well below the TWA17 of 0.1 ppm, could be useful as an antimicrobial in the presence of humans to mitigate and/ or prevent viral infection and possibly other related respiratory tract infections... ClO2 gas could be used in places such as hospitals, clinics, offices, hotels, schools and airport buildings without interrupting normal activities."

****!!!! {Highlights of chlorine dioxide characteristics} "ClO2 does not ionize to form weak acids (as chlorine and bromine do) in aqueous solutions. This allows ClO2 to be effective over a wide pH range. " "The criteria for disinfection, as defined by the USEPA, are as follows. ClO2 meets all of these criteria. 1. a 99.9% reduction in Giardia lamblia (3 log reduction) 2. zero lactose fermenting coliform 3. less than 10 cfu/mL non-lactose fermenting coliforms and 4. 99.99% reduction in enteric virus (4 log) concentrations." "ClO2 is shown to be an effective disinfectant at residual concentrations between 0.2 and 0.8 ppm. ClO2 penetrates the cell wall of the microorganism and disrupts metabolic functions. This is more efficient than other oxidizers that “burn” whatever they come in contact with. This allows lower effective concentrations to be used. ClO2, like ozone, is a dissolved gas that penetrates biofilm by molecular diffusion. However, unlike ozone, ClO2 is stable and soluble, allowing it to travel to the base of the film where it attacks microorganisms and attacks and loosens the biofilm at its point of attachment. Other oxidizers react mostly on the surface of the biofilm to form an oxidized layer, like charring on wood. This precludes further penetration. No biocide has proved to control biofilm better than ClO2. "

Spores of B. thuringiensis HD-1 cry- were employed as a surrogate for virulent B. anthracis. However, key performance attributes were validated against a range of virulent B. anthracis. Preferred formulations for decontamination were developed through laboratory, environmental chamber, windtunnel and finally full-scale outdoor trials. During outdoor trials we achieved all essential success criteria on all surface types (4-Log10 reduction on wood, steel and cement). Results using steel surfaces approached that required for desirable performance (6-Log10 reduction). Significant loss of spore viability was found by environmental exposure alone (up to 3-Log10 over 72 h).
