Chlorine Dioxide in water
« on: November 18, 2018, 12:53:50 PM »
Hi all

Looking for a little guidance. We have been given some water quality data as part of a project. Specifically I'm interested in the concentration of chlorine dioxide. The analysis results indicate concentrations of  0.6 mg/l. However, there are no water quality standards for chlorine dioxide only chlorine. Can I calculated the equivalent of chlorine from the data we have been given for chlorine dioxide?

Chlorine dioxide is a neutral chlorine compound. It is very different from elemental chlorine, both in its chemical structure and in its behavior.[5] One of the most important qualities of chlorine dioxide is its high water solubility, especially in cold water. Chlorine dioxide does not hydrolyze when it enters water; it remains a dissolved gas in solution. Chlorine dioxide is approximately 10 times more soluble in water than chlorine.[5]
