<p>A solid-state chlorine dioxide generator (10) for generating an aqueous solution of ClO2 is formed within a block (11a, 11b) comprising an eductor (31) for establishing a vacuum pressure and a reaction column (52) for producing ClO2 from precursor chemicals. The eductor (31) has a water stream flowing therethrough which establishes a vacuum pressure and draws the ClO2 from the reaction column (52) into the water stream to form an aqueous ClO2 solution. The reaction column (52) comprises a novel transition zone (53) of increasing flow area wherein the precursor chemicals thoroughly mix resulting in conversion efficiencies of precursors into ClO2 of 95 % and above.</p> |
