When it comes to chlorine dioxide (ClO₂) disinfection, not all solutions are created equal. Many products claim to deliver “pure” ClO₂, but the truth lies in the chemistry—and the results. Selectrocide® from Selective Micro Technologies delivers generator-level performance without the cost, complexity, or safety risks of traditional methods.
Our patented micro-reactor technology is the reason we can confidently say: no other chlorine dioxide product matches our purity, safety, or regulatory profile. This is The Selective Micro Difference.
The Technology That Sets Us Apart
At the heart of Selectrocide® is SMT’s patented membrane micro-reactor technology. This unique system generates true chlorine dioxide at the point of use, using a precisely controlled process that’s fundamentally different from traditional methods.
Instead of relying on bulky generators or unstable chemical mixes, our sealed micro-reactor produces over 99.99999% pure ClO₂—portable, safe, and ready for use anywhere. Just add water. That’s The Selective Micro Difference.
Understanding the Alternatives
1. “Stabilized” Chlorine Dioxide
Despite the name, stabilized ClO₂ isn’t actually chlorine dioxide—it’s a mix of precursor chemicals that releases only a small amount of ClO₂ when activated.
- Low Purity: 7%–30% actual ClO₂
- Highly Acidic: pH 2–4, corrosive to equipment and unsafe for sensitive surfaces
- Byproducts: Leaves behind unwanted residual salts and chemicals
2. Large-Scale ClO₂ Generators
Generators produce higher purity ClO₂, but come with trade-offs:
- Medium Purity: ~70% ClO₂
- High Cost: Expensive capital equipment and ongoing maintenance
- Complex Operation: Requires trained personnel and technical oversight
- Lacks Mobility: Impractical for field use or smaller facilities
Why Selectrocide® Wins
Selectrocide® combines the purity of a generator with the simplicity of a portable kit:
- Ultra-Pure: >99.99999% pure chlorine dioxide
- Point-of-Use Generation: Fresh, on-demand ClO₂ at full potency — no degradation from storage
- Safe & Portable: Lightweight and sealed—no raw chemical handling
- No Harmful Byproducts: Harmless residuals, safe for food contact surfaces, potable water, and sensitive equipment
- Regulatory Leadership: EPA-registered, FDA-approved, NSF/ANSI certified for drinking water, OMRI Listed® for organic production — the most comprehensive regulatory profile in the chlorine dioxide industry
Proven Benefits in the Field
Selectrocide® isn’t just the purest ClO₂ — it’s delivering measurable improvements across industries:
- Poultry Biosecurity: Reduces pathogen load in drinking water systems without biofilm buildup
