Applications

Agrochemical

• Horticulture: weak hydrogen peroxide solutions are used in watering solutions as its spontaneous decomposition releases oxygen, enhancing root development and treating root rot

Cleaning Chemicals & Detergents

• Cleaning products: a green replacement for chlorine-based products in the manufacture of mild bleach and laundry detergent household cleaning formulations
• Sterilising and disinfecting: an antimicrobial across a range of industrial settings

Energy & Waste Management

• Waste: an oxidant for recovering non-ferrous metals from electronic waste

Oil & Gas

• Oil and gas exploration: to oxidise rock matrix in preparation for micro-fossil analysis

Water Treatment

• Drinking water treatment: removes odours, organic materials and changes the taste of water from wells and other drinking water sources
• Wastewater treatment: a strong oxidiser, effective in controlling sulphide and organic-related odours in wastewater collection and treatment systems
• Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) removal from wastewater: decomposes to oxygen and water, adding dissolved oxygen to the system
• Pollutants removal: an oxidising agent with a number of applications in refinery wastewater systems

Textile Chemicals & Dyes

• Textile manufacturing: a cost-effective bleaching method of clothing materials, like cotton

Personal Care

• Personal care: wide applications as an oxidising and antimicrobial agent in products for teeth whitening, hair care and ear wax

Industrial

• Recycling: de-inking in paper recycling processes
• LCD display and semi-conductor manufacture: an etchant for printed circuit boards
• Chemical manufacture: used in the synthesis of other major chemicals

Metal Treatment

• Mining and metal processing: for removing organic impurities from ore

Packaging

• Food processing: a disinfectant for sterilising cardboard and plastic packaging materials intended for contact with food products
