Still despite chlorine based halazone tablets falling from favor for portable water purification chlorine based bleach may nonetheless safely be used for short term emergency water disinfection. Chlorine dioxide has been used by municipal water treatment plants to kill a variety of waterborne pathogens since the late 1940s. Chlorine dioxide kills bacteria viruses and cysts in water including giardia and cryptosporidium. Solutions of chlorogene chlorine dioxide are highly effective super sanitising agents recommended for use where control of microbiological activity is essential.

The tablets only release chlorine dioxide when in contact with water. Unlike free chlorine familiar as household bleach or other halogen chemicals such as iodine chlorine dioxide does not create potentially harmful by products. Two drops of unscented 5 bleach can be added per liter or quart of clear water then allowed to stand covered for 30 to 60 minutes. These water purifying tablets are the safest and most effective form of chemical water disinfection and unlike chlorine have no noticeable aftertaste.

The drinking water treatment tablets are individually wrapped for easy chlorine dioxide water treatment for camping hiking and travel. Chlorine dioxide clo 2 is now universally recognised as one of the most effective biocidal agents available for a wide range of industrial and domestic water treatment applications. Each tablet releases a minimum 600 parts per million available chlorine dioxide per litre of water. An unopened tablet will last up to 3 years from date of manufacture.
