Water can be disinfected and reused using a variety of methods. Kemira KemConnect™ DEX is an environment-friendly, chemical disinfection solution. It is efficient and reliable, and able to disinfect all kinds of water even under changing process conditions. The solution is based on performic acid (PFA) and a compact on-site generator system, providing safe water with no disinfection by-products and decomposing completely in a few minutes.
Effective and sustainable disinfection at low doses
PFA is highly effective at low doses with flexible disinfectant feed rates.
Because PFA is chlorine-free and does not produce toxic by-products, KemConnect DEX is a sustainable disinfection strategy.
Cost efficient and convenient
Unlike UV disinfection, KemConnect DEX requires a low capital investment and has a low energy demand, decreasing your operational costs. The on-site PFA production system is compact and can be used to disinfect all kinds of water.
Automated dosing and full process visibility
The disinfection process is monitored and controlled through a secure online platform. Customized email and SMS notifications and reports keep you informed about the process status.
