Hydrogen Peroxide’s Use as a Disinfectant & Oxidizer

written by Eric Beck

H2O2, COMMONLY KNOWN AS HYDROGEN PEROXIDE, IS A VERY USEFUL CHEMICAL TOOL FOR USE IN THE TREATMENT OF WATER.

IT IS AN EXCELLENT DISINFECTANT AND OXIDIZER, MUCH LIKE CHLORINE, OZONE AND POTASSIUM PERMANGANATE AND IT WORKS TWICE AS FAST AS CHLORINE. THIS FASTER ACTION ALLOWS THE USE OF LESS OF THE CHEMICAL AND SMALLER CHEMICAL PUMPS FOR USE IN DELIVERING THE HYDROGEN PEROXIDE TO THE WATER SYSTEM.

ONE OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDES ADVANTAGES IS: AS IT BREAKS DOWN, IT FORMS ONLY WATER AND OXYGEN. AND, UNLIKE CHLORINE BLEACH, NO CARCINOGENS ARE FORMED AS IT BREAKS DOWN.

WHEN YOU COMBINE THE PROPER AMOUNT OF HYDROGEN PEROXIDE INJECTION WITH A PROPERLY SIZED BACKWASHING CATALYTIC CARBON FILTER SYSTEM, YOU CAN ENJOY ODOR FREE, DISINFECTED WATER THROUGH OUT YOUR HOME.
