Treating an aqueous solution of sodium chlorite with either chlorine gas or a mixture of sodium hypochlorite and hydrochloric acid, or treating
an aqueous solution of sodium chlorate with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of sulfuric acid. In either case, the generator effluent
contains at least 90 percent (by weight) of chlorine dioxide with respect to all chlorine species as determined by Method 4500-
ClO2 E in the “Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater,” 18th ed., 1992, or an equivalent method. Method 4500-
ClO2 E is incorporated by reference in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. Copies are available from the Center
