At the Bayport facility, Air Liquide and ChemTreat collaborated on an initiative called “Runtime Extension and Lower Environmental Impact Project Using Chlorine Dioxide for Disinfection Treatment of the Reverse Osmosis Plant.” The teams worked together on enhancing the treatment of plant supply water to optimize water consumption and maintain system cleanliness while extending runtime between cleanings.
By implementing a chlorine dioxide-based treatment process, Air Liquide was able to save over 273,000 gallons of water annually while significantly reducing chemical usage. This program improved the efficiency of the plant while helping Air Liquide meet their environmental goals around water savings.
