The SANIKILL monochloramine generator is a patented system (US Pat# 8,444,860) designed for the production and controlled addition of monochloramine to disinfect and control waterborne pathogens in domestic water plumbing systems. This advanced system is engineered to maintain a monochloramine concentration of 2-4 ppm, accounting for disinfectant decay due to thermal decomposition and dissolved oxidizable species.
Monochloramine offers a sustained disinfection effect, forming a stable residual disinfectant that remains effective as water travels through distribution systems. This stability ensures that water remains free from harmful microorganisms by the time it reaches consumers.
One of the standout benefits of monochloramine is its effectiveness in controlling biofilms. Biofilms, which consist of microorganisms and their extracellular products, can form on the inner surfaces of pipes, compromising water quality. Monochloramine’s ability to penetrate and disrupt biofilms makes it an essential tool for maintaining clean and safe water infrastructure.
Monochloramine also minimizes the formation of disinfection byproducts (DBPs), such as trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids, which can form when chlorine reacts with organic matter in water. These DBPs are associated with potential health risks, making monochloramine a preferred choice for balancing effective disinfection with reduced byproduct formation.
