Industrial Applications of Sodium Chlorate

The main commercial use for sodium chlorate is for making chlorine dioxide, ClO2. The largest application, approx. 95% of the chlorate, is in bleaching of pulp where chlorine dioxide today is the predominant bleaching agent. Sometimes Sodium chlorate is also used as a non-selective herbicide. It is considered phytotoxic to all green plant parts. Sodium chlorate can also used as a Chemical oxygen generation, and sometimes it is used in some aircraft as a source of supplemental oxygen.

Sodium Chlorate for Water Treatment industy

Pulp and paper mills also pollute water, which must be cleaned before it is released into the environment. The composition of paper production pollutants in waste water depends on the paper produced as well as on fillers and chemicals used. The pulp production and bleaching process generate other effluents and require different treatment. Strict environmental regulations and demands to improve process efficiency make water treatment and effluent control a daily challenge for us as chemicals supplier.

Sodium Chlorate as a Non-Selective Contact Herbicide

As the name suggests these agents can be applied to remove target plants without damaging others which are desired. For the gardener this means a weedkiller which will kill broad-leaved weeds and will not affect grasses. They are usually applied to the lawn as part of a weed-and-feed application, but can be applied on their own. Their action is also systemic since they have to be absorbed into the tissues with usually a hormonal effect on growth rates.killing all green plant parts and has a soil-sterilant effect. It may persist in soil for 6 months to 5 years, depending on rate applied, soil type, fertility, organic matter, moisture, and weather conditions. It is highly toxic to animals and humans, breaking down red blood cells. It forms explosive mixtures so products sold as weedkillers have Sodium Chloride added to inhibit flammability.In July 2008 the European Commission Pesticides Review Standing Committee voted not to include Sodium Chlorate in Annex 1 of the approved pesticides list and given a last date of sale on 30th September 2009. It cannot be used after 10th May 2010 and any excess disposed of in the approved manner on that date; not down the drain.
