Grundfos Pumps India Pvt. Ltd., one of the leading pump manufacturers in India, and a subsidiary of the Danish pump major Grundfos Holdings, launched its Chlorine Dioxide Disinfection System for water treatment applications. This efficient system can be used for treating cooling tower water, industrial raw water, process water and drinking water.

Based on underwater generation technology, the system generates chlorine dioxide (ClO2) using concentrated solutions of sodium chlorite and hydrochloric acid. With their high precision, integrated Grundfos dosing pumps the system assures a high performance level and yield. This innovative product from Grundfos is a customised system for the generation of 1 kg to 200 kg ClO2/hour. The Grundfos chlorine dioxide system can be tailor-made according to customer needs: titanium pumps for pressurised injection, a distribution panel for multiple injections, complete or partial redundancy, external communication for remote control, etc.

It is designed with very effective underwater generation technology which not only consumes lesser chemicals, but also generates lesser by-products.

The small volume of reaction chamber of the Grundfos chlorine dioxide system means lower ClO2 quantity, and therefore lower risk. There is no risk of concentrated ClO2 gas getting released into the atmosphere as the highly concentrated ClO2 is generated underwater. If it is not possible to install the system indoors, or if ambient conditions are not suitable for an outdoor installation, the dosing section and the control system can be pre-installed in an air-conditioned container.

Commenting on the occasion, Shankar Rajaram, Head – Industry (North and South), Grundfos India, says, “We have launched this product with an objective to have the least impact on the environment and at the same time ensure maximum safety. We are confident that this product will be valued by the user industry and benefit the customers alike.”
