Hydrogen Peroxide is a powerful, environmentally friendly oxidant used in bleaching, sterilisation and industrial chemistry. As a ‘vanishing oxidant’ which leaves no residue, this non-toxic and easily applied liquid finds wide application.
PULP and PAPER : This industry is the largest worldwide user of hydrogen peroxide, driven by public pressure and legislation to remove chlorine from the bleaching process. For bleaching mechanical, recycled and non-wood fibres, as well as supporting other reagents in Kraft bleaching.
TEXTILES: Hydrogen peroxide is the bleaching agent of choice for natural cellulose and animal fibres. Cotton, wool and silk all benefit from the high whiteness and low fibre damage.
FOOD, COSMETIC and HEALTH: Current uses include aseptic packaging, food bleaching and preservation, microbial control, hair products and pharmaceuticals.
WATER and EFFLUENT: for swimming pool shock treatment, deodorising and emergency river and lagoon restoration after effluent spills.
Many water applications benefit from advanced oxidation technologies which combine hydrogen peroxide with ultraviolet radiation, ozone or metal catalysts. These form powerful hydroxyl radicals which effectively destroy taste and odour molecules in drinking water, coloured dyes in textile effluents and a wide variety of organic pollutants.
CHEMICAL INDUSTRY; in oxidation and hydroxylation reactions and production of organic/inorganic peroxides such as peracetic acid, sodium perborate, calcium peroxide
Mining industry; in eliminating toxic effects of various mines.
Metallurgical industry; in obtaining metallic surfaces.
SAFETY and HANDLING: Hydrogen peroxide is a strong oxidising agent. Active oxygen is liberated very slowly from pure, stabilised hydrogen peroxide but much more rapidly after gross contamination with metals, organics or alkalis.
These properties require special precautions for safe handling and it is essential that users are familiar with these precautions or avail themselves of the services provided by Hidrogen Peroxide..
