Textile Bleaching

Water Treatment Textile Bleaching

Electrolytic Technologies can help you with all your water treatment textile bleaching applications. Klorigen™ systems generate sodium hypochlorite at the same high quality and 10-15% concentration levels as available from bulk commercial suppliers.

In the Klorigen™ process, sodium hypochlorite is produced and delivered at the point of usage and on demand, eliminating unnecessary costs of commercial purchase including supplier costs, product mark-up, transport and your storage space. Klorigen™ systems are delivered fully assembled, factory tested and ready for installation. Klorigen™ systems have proven to be highly reliable and require minimal maintenance.

Klorigen™ provides greater autonomy for your textile dyeing mills by reducing the dependence on third party suppliers and providing production scaled to demand. In most instances, Klorigen™ generated bleach is considerably less expensive than purchased commercial bulk bleach. Klorigen™ systems are ideally suited to the textile industry.

Benefits of Klorigen™

• Systems chlorine gas at less than atmospheric pressure, virtually eliminating the possibility of a dangerous toxic gas release.
• The generated chlorine gas can be combined with co-product sodium hydroxide within the process to produce high-strength sodium hypochlorite at an operating cost that is in most cases is comparable to or less than any alternative chlor-alkali product available to the end user.
• Klorigen™ systems have a projected lifespan exceeding 20 years with minor refurbishments scheduled at five to eight-year intervals.
• The generated chemical products (elemental chlorine gas, sodium hydroxide and sodium hypochlorite) are equal if not superior in quality and efficacy to conventional bulk-supplied alternatives and comply with National Sanitation Foundation (NSF) standards (USA).
• Modular designs allow for the capacity of a system to be increased within its existing footprint by a factor of two or even three in less than one week with minimal interruption to operations.
• Every system and subsystem is designed to fit within conventional ocean-freight shipping (TEU) containers, allowing for low cost road and sea freight to the customer’s site.
• By design, the system operates at less than one atmosphere of pressure with electrodes separated by a semi-perfluorinated membrane, eliminating any risk for hydrogen explosion in either the electrolyzers or downstream in the product storage tanks.
