Who is MIOX®? Control and Prevention (CDC), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the World Health Organization With a history of scientific innovation, MIOX Corporation (WHO) and other internationally‐recognized scientific began manufacturing on‐site water disinfectant generators institutions and universities, to build a substantial body of in 1994. Now with more than 1,700 MIOX installations in scientific documentation to demonstrate the dramatic hundreds of U.S. communities and over 30 countries, MIOX improvements in human health when mixed oxidants are systems are treating used to treat drinking water. more than 6.5 billion gallons of water per Individual treatment for individual needs day, serving millions of We know all treatment needs are not alike. For standard people worldwide. disinfection needs, we offer a state‐of‐the‐art on‐site hypochlorite generator engineered with superior salt and MIOX is used for energy efficiencies. For more advanced treatment needs, potable water, MIOX mixed oxidant technology offers all the disinfection wastewater and reuse, power of hypochlorite with additional treatment benefits commercial swimming including biofilm removal, disinfection by‐product (DBP) MIOX Headquarters pools, on board reduction, improved taste and odor, and improved water Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA military and cruise clarification processes. With mixed oxidant technology, ships, cooling towers, you’ll maintain more persistent and consistent chlorine the beverage industry, oil and gas water treatment, and residuals with lower doses. And compared to conventional other commercial and industrial applications. chlorination, laboratory studies show that mixed oxidants offer a much more effective kill of Cost effective and environmentally even difficult‐to‐inactivate responsible? Absolutely. microorganisms including Using MIOX’s patented, innovative technology, disinfectant Cryptosporidium, Giardia, and is generated on site, on demand, using just salt, water and Legionella and biological weapons power, replacing the need to purchase, transport and store agents including anthrax, smallpox dangerous chemicals.
