Abstract
Stable, aqueous solutions of chlorine dioxide and methods for producing stable, aqueous solutions of chlorine dioxide are disclosed. Generally, the chlorine dioxide solutions of the invention are aqueous solutions containing about 1000 ppm by weight or less of total impurities and/or 10 ppm or less of manganese and iron combined. The aqueous chlorine dioxide solutions are storage stable for at least 90 days at 25° C. and maintain at least 75% of the initial chlorine dioxide concentration. Methods of preparing, using and transporting the chlorine dioxide solutions are also disclosed.
