METHOD FOR PRODUCING A STABLE OXIDIZING BIOCIDE

摘要

Disclosed herein is a method for producing a stable chloramine in a continuous flow wherein a concentrated chlorine source is combined at ambient temperature with a concentrated amine source at ambient temperature and is agitated to produce a stable chloramine with a pH of 7 to 10.5, wherein a molar ratio of chlorine source to amine source is 1:0.755 to 1:6, and wherein the chlorine source contains an alkali earth metal hydroxide and the amine source is ammonium sulfate or ammonium hydroxide. Reference has been directed, in pursuance of section 16(1) of the Patents Act 1953, to New Zealand patent No. 578629.
