Chlorine dioxide is a new type of disinfectant, but it cannot be stored
and transported as a gas and is very toxic. A stable solid disinfectant
capable of releasing chlorine dioxide was prepd. from sodium chlorite,
stabilizer, acid stimulator, and synergistes. This disinfectant was stable
in dry state and could produce chlorine dioxide when it contacted with
water. The soln. contg. 3.3 mg.L-1 chlorine dioxide could kill 100% of B.
subtilis var. niger spores after exposure for 5 min. The soln. contg. 434
mg.L-1 chlorine dioxide could destroy 100% of HBsAg after exposure
for 30 min. The content of chlorine dioxide in this disinfectant powder
was decreased by about 12% following storage at 56* for 14 days. It
was essentially non-corrosive to stainless steel and moderately
corrosive to carbon steel.

Nine oxyhalides as possible inorg. disinfection byproducts were tested
for oxidative cell damage by Kat-sod assay with E. coli mutant strains
deficient in the active oxygen-scavenging enzymes. Chlorine dioxide,
chlorite, and iodate were highly cytotoxic, whereas in the presence of
cysteine, bromate (BrO3-) and metaperiodate (IO4-) showed more
growth inhibition toward the superoxide dismutase-deficient strains
than the wild strain. BrO3- also showed oxidative mutagenicity with
cysteine or glutathione Et ester in S. typhimurium TA 100. To identify
oxyhalides formed by ozonation of raw water contg. sea water, the
occurrence of ozonation byproducts of bromide and iodide was
investigated. The results indicate that BrO3- is toxicol. one of the most
remarkable oxyhalides detectable in drinking water because IO4- was
not detected in ozonated soln. of iodide, and the ozonation condition to
lower BrO3- is to keep it neutral in the presence of ammonium ion.

DOCUMENT TYPE: Journal CA Section: 61 (Water)
Coal-tar was commonly used as an internal lining for corrosion
protection of water pipes from the 19th century. In this project, the
principal mechanisms leading to the occurrence of polycyclic arom.
hydrocarbons (PAHs) in those water mains were investigated. The
results showed that the occurrence of PAHs in a distribution system
was linked to the presence of the disinfectants chlorine and chlorine
dioxide. In lab. expts. it was demonstrated that the coal-tar surface
represents a substrate for the growth of biofilms which have protective
effects. Generally, hostile environmental conditions for microbiol.
activity of the biofilm such as disinfection, stagnation periods, and
anaerobic conditions could be identified as important factors which
favor the occurrence of PAHs in drinking water. An increase of PAH
concns. was obsd. immediately after stagnation periods. Furthermore,
it was clearly shown that disturbances in the hydraulic regime such as
water hammers, operation of valves, and rapid increases in flow
velocity can result in enhanced PAH concns. by the destabilization of
the biofilm matrix or high shear forces affecting the pipe walls resulting
in the release of particles highly contaminated with PAHs, which may
be responsible for the contamination of the drinking water.

Photoionization of the primary photofragments of chlorine dioxide
(OClO) and dichlorine monoxide (Cl2O) is reported. The nascent
photofragments are formed by UV photolysis, they are subsequently
photoionized by time-correlated XUV laser radiation and finally
detected by time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Primary photolysis of
OClO leads to the formation of ClO + O at l = 359.5 nm, whereas ClO
+ Cl are formed by photolysis of Cl2O at l = 250 nm. The XUV
photoionization of the photolysis products relies on single photon
ionization. This allows to derive partial photoionization cross sections
of the parent cations and their photolysis products from mass spectral
intensities by using the abs. photoionization cross sections of the at.
products for calibration. Specifically, we obtain for OClO at E = 13.74
eV:sClO = 27 * 5 Mb and sOClO = 18.5 * 3 Mb. Consistent findings are
obtained from equiv. expts. on Cl2O. The present results are compared
with previous photoionization work on ClO and OClO to demonstrate
the reliability of UV-pump/XUV-probe spectroscopy.

The behavior of Escherichia coli O157:H7 on alfalfa seeds subjected to

is affected by applications of NaOCl, Ca(OCl)2, acidified NaClO2,
acidified ClO2, Na3PO4, Vegi-Clean, Tsunami, Vortexx, or H2O2 at

ppm of NaOCl, 200 and 2,000 ppm of Ca(OCl)2, 500 ppm of acidified
ClO2, 10,000 ppm of Vegi-Clean, 80 ppm of Tsunami, or 40 and 80
ppm of Vortexx to germinated seeds significantly reduced the
population of E. coli O157:H7. With the exception of acidified NaOCl2
at 1,200 ppm, spray applications of these chems. did not significantly
reduce populations or control the growth of E. coli O157:H7 on alfalfa
sprouts during the sprouting process. Populations of E. coli on alfalfa
sprouts peaked at 6 to 7 log10 CFU/g 48 h after initiation of the
sprouting process and remained stable despite further spraying with
chems. The population of E. coli O157:H7 on sprouts as they entered
cold storage at 9 * 2癈 remained essentially unchanged for up to 6
days. None of the chem. treatments evaluated was able to eliminate or
satisfactorily reduce E. coli O157:H7 on alfalfa seeds and sprouts.
Observations on the ability of E. coli O157:H7 to grow during prodn. of
alfalfa sprouts not subjected to chem. treatments are similar to those
from a previous study in the authors' lab. on the behavior of Salmonella
Stanley. The results do not reveal a chem. treatment method to
eliminate the pathogen from alfalfa sprouts. Currently recommended
procedures for sanitizing alfalfa seeds fail to eliminate E. coli O157:H7
and the pathogen can grow to populations exceeding 7 log10 CFU/g of
sprouts produced using techniques not dissimilar to those used in the

Photodissocn. of ClO2 in aq. soln. at 400 nm results in the formation of
ClO + O and Cl + O2. ClO and O geminately recombine to ClO2 in the
electronic ground state (2B1), formed with an initial vibrational energy of
u2.5 eV. In this paper the vibrational relaxation of ClO2(2B1) in aq. soln.
is studied by femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy in the
spectral range 234 to 1024 nm. The measured transient absorption of
the vibrationally relaxing ClO2 mols. is compared with the transient
absorption calcd. for relaxation in the asym. stretch as well as the sym.
stretch and bending modes. The calcns. of the absorption spectra
pertaining to the asym. stretch are based on a harmonic potential
derived from the exptl. detd. fundamental vibrational energy, whereas
that of the sym. vibrations are based on ab initio potentials. An
excellent agreement is obtained by assuming that the vibrational
relaxation predominantly occurs in the asym. stretch with a 9.5 ps
relaxation time. A weak spectral feature in the UV part of the spectrum
is assigned to vibrational relaxation in the sym. stretch and bending
modes, indicating a coupling between the asym. and sym. modes.

The principal source of the organically bound Cl (AOX) that is formed
during ClO2 bleaching is hypochlorous acid (HOCl), which is generated
when ClO2 reacts with lignin (I). At low pH, this HOCl can be converted
to Cl, which contributes to AOX formation. Lab. studies showed that
AOX formation can be almost totally suppressed by adding DMSO,
which reacts with HOCl to give di-Me sulfone (DMSO2). The quantity of
HOCl captured by DMSO represents roughly 75% of the initial ClO2
charge (on a mole basis). However, this translates to a 1/3 loss of
delignification efficiency. Consequently, any decrease of AOX by
adding DMSO would require an increase in the ClO2 charge to
maintain delignification efficiency. Another approach, based on the
same HOCl-scavenging mechanism, was also studied. In this case,
HOCl is captured by the chlorite ions that are formed when ClO2 reacts
with I. The results showed that AOX formation can be decreased
significantly by splitting the ClO2 charge and adding alkali to raise the
pH to neutral when each ClO2 split is applied. This approach shows
promise because it did not decrease delignification.

Chlorite (ClO2-) is one of the few simple aq. anions that forms a stable
product on 1-electron oxidn. The heterogeneous charge transfer rate
consts. at E* = 0.700 V vs. SCE for the ClO2-/ClO2 redox couple were
measured at Au, Pt, and glassy carbon electrodes in aq. KNO3 solns.
using rotating disk and a.c. voltammetry techniques between 10 and
30*. At 25* in 1.0M KNO3 and pH = 7, the std. heterogeneous rate
consts. kel were measured as 0.015 * 0.001 cm/s and 0.014 * 0.003
cm/s, resp., at Au and reduced Pt electrodes. The transfer coeff. a on
gold is 0.50 * 0.01 using a.c. voltammetry. The heterogeneous rate
consts. obtained using a glassy carbon electrode were slower (0.0079
* 0.001 cm/s at 25*). The measured activation free energy for electron
transfer at a gold electrode was 25 * 3.3 kJ/mol with a preexponential
factor of 310(+900/-230) cm/s. Heterogeneous rate consts. of expts.
performed in D2O solvent were only slightly slower than those
measured in H2O, indicating that the redox couple does not exhibit
differential hydrogen bonding. Digital simulation of cyclic
voltammograms, with kel detd. from the a.c. voltammetry and rotating
disk techniques, gave good agreement with expt. Marcus theory was
applied to understand the unexpected slow heterogeneous kinetics for
this simple redox couple. Addnl., the preexponential factor in the
semiclassical expression describing heterogeneous electron transfer
was examd. The slow electron transfer process is primarily attributed
to a small preexponential factor that may arise from a high degree of
nonadiabaticity in the electron transfer process.

Bacteria, fungi, and coliform bacteria measurement can be disturbed
seriously by preservatives, disinfectants, and ozone in food and
beverage. The bacteria, fungi and coliform bacteria detectability of the
anti-disturbance microbial media by using the anti-preservative,
anti-disinfectant, and anti-ozone microbial media, resp. to detect the
samples, which contain residual preservatives potassium sorbate and
sodium benzoate, disinfectant chloride dioxide and ozone, was much
higher than that of the general microbial media and is almost the same
as the detectability of the general microbial media when which were
used to detect the samples without the remains of the preservatives,
disinfectants and ozone.

A ClO2 oxidn. process for treating petroleum polluted groundwater was
presented. The aroms. in the groundwater were degraded to small
mol. matters by ClO2, and the concn. of the aroms. was decreased from
7.793 to 0.093 mg L-1, that of paraffinic hydrocarbons was increased
from 1.08 to 1.844 mg L-1. The ClO2 oxidn. process had significant
sterilization effect for treating the groundwater.
