Chlorine Dioxide Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Application (Pulp & Paper Industry, Water Treatment, Food Processing, Construction Industry, Oil Industry, Pharmaceutical Industry, Others) And Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Chlorine dioxide is a chemical compound with a chemical formula of ClO2. It is a volatile, small, and very strong molecule, which consists of two oxygen atoms and one chlorine atom. It is produced onsite from sodium chlorite or sodium chlorate. It is soluble in water and changes from reddish to yellowish-green colour gas at room temperature. Additionally, chlorine dioxide offers antimicrobial and antivirus properties. These properties surge the demand for chlorine dioxide in a wide range of applications which include the pulp & paper industry, water treatment, food processing, construction industry, oil industry, and pharmaceutical industry.

The rising demand for chlorine dioxide in water treatment and food processing will fuel market growth. In the water treatment application, the product is highly utilized as a biocide and as an odor control agent. It is also an effective disinfectant and remains long-lasting.
