Kinetics of the initial steps in the aqueous oxidation of thiosulfate by chlorine dioxide. | Semantic Scholar
A classical electron-transfer mechanism is assigned to the reaction that occurs under conditions of methionine inhibition, and the initial products are ClO2(-) and S4O6(2-). The reaction of ClO2(•) with S2O3(2-) in aqueous solution is a component of the "crazy clock" reaction of ClO2(-) with S2O3(2-), and under conditions of excess S2O3(2-) the absorbance at 360 nm due to ClO2(•) decays with sigmoidal kinetics. A chain reaction mechanism is inferred on the basis that very small concentrations of SO3(2-) accelerate the reaction, and methionine inhibits the reaction. Pseudo-first-order kinetics is observed in the presence of relatively large methionine concentrations, leading to the simple rate law -d[ClO2]/dt = (ka[S2O3(2-)] + kb[S2O3(2-)](2))[ClO2], with ka = 452 ± 16 M(-1) s(-1) and kb = (5.7 ± 0.2) × 10(5) M(-2) s(-1) at 25 °C and pH 7.6. Under these conditions, the initial products are ClO2(-) and S4O6(2-). A classical electron-transfer mechanism is assigned to the reaction that occurs under conditions of methionine inhibition.

S-oxygenation of thiocarbamides II: Oxidation of trimethylthiourea by chlorite and chlorine dioxide - PubMed
The kinetics of the oxidation of a substituted thiourea, trimethylthiourea (TMTU), by chlorite have been studied in slightly acidic media. The reaction is much faster than the comparable oxidation of the unsubstituted thiourea by chlorite. The stoichiometry of the reaction was experimentally deduced …

Shall We Compromise The Health Effect Of Disinfection Byproducts To Control Waterborne Diseases? ~Emma Flanagan, Biohydrox ™ by Envirocleen LLC
**** [Highlights non-ClO2 water treatment with great potential] "Advanced oxidation is a process that applies enough hydroxyl radicals to achieve significant change at the molecular level. The hydroxyl radical is a reactive oxygen species with the highest oxidation potential among all oxidizing agents used in water treatment. It is mainly non-selective and reacts by decomposition with most compounds it encounters on its path. In 2013, the International Sanitary Foundation certified NSF/ANSI 60, the first advanced oxidation reagent for the treatment of drinking water for human use. This reagent is a multimineral oxychloride liquid formula that does not need to be generated onsite, has low safety risk, and is cheaper and simpler to operate than other chlorine alternatives."

Chlorine dioxide biocidal efficacy ~AquaPulse Systems
****!!!! {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. "

Chlorine Dioxide Bleach ~Mini-Encyclopedia of Papermaking Wet-End Chemistry
"ClO2. This is a reactive gas formed from chlorine and oxygen. It is a strong oxidizing agent with a tendency to open up unsaturated compounds and aromatic rings. In water solution it may be present as an ion with a single negative charge. Function: Papermakers who use bleached kraft pulp are likely to have heard about chlorine dioxide even if they have never set foot in a pulp mill. That's partly because it is very often present in the very last bleaching stage (D-stage), increasing the likelihood that some of it is carries over with the pulp into the paper machine system. Another reason is that it is one of the most popular biocide treatments for alkaline papermaking. Its use in that role is pretty much restricted to bleached grades, since any unbleached fibers will rapidly consume the chemical. Strategies for Use: Chlorine dioxide has the desirable attribute of "quick kill" of bacteria and fungi, and it also decomposes relatively rapidly. It is conventional practice to treat the pulp furnish and then monitor the residual activity at a later point in the process. Typically the addition rate is controlled to give a residual chlorine content of about 1 ppm."

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). However, active decontamination was more effective (up to a further 3.6-Log10 reduction in viable spores). Pre-germination before decontamination with chlorine dioxide was not found to have a benefit."
