Titration Results

Peracetic ACid is produced commercially by mixing Acetic Acid ("Vinager") with
Hydrogen Peroxid. The mixture reaches chemical equilibrium, with
the following approximate final concentrations.


Commercial ("Equilibrium") PAA, Weight%:
Water 30 - 44
Acetic Acid 33 - 38
Peracetic Acid (PAA) 15 - 17
Hydrogen Peroxide: 9 - 11
Sulfuric Acid 0.1

(From PeroxyChem MSDS, VigerOx® Oil & Gas.)


The Cardinal Water Services PAA is generated using imPAAct® technology
from Eltron Research. There is no excess acetic acid in the imPAAct® PAA, which
is genereted on-site immediately before use. imPAAct® PAA
is therefore not dangerous to transport and requires a lower volume of on-site chemicals.
And, there is NO CHLORINE!


The EPA has set a maximum contaminant level of 1 milligram of chlorite per
liter (1 mg/L) and 0.8 mg/L for chlorine dioxide in drinking water.
However, the concentration of both of these chemicals
may be higher or lower in your drinking water.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has set a limit
of 0.1 parts of chlorine dioxide or chlorite per million parts of
air (0.1 ppm) in the workplace during an 8-hour shift, 40-hour workweek.

Peroxychem case study PAA in waste water treatment. PAA in low concentrations adequate to treat municipal waste water discharge.

Wikipedia article on PAA, which includes the following statement: "Peracetic acid is always sold
in solution as a mixture with acetic acid and hydrogen peroxide to maintain its stability." The Eltron
Research imPAAct reactor is the exception! PAA is generated on the fly, as needed, WITHOUT surplus acetic acid
in the mix!

Food safety Magazine article on PAA in food processing. Note that PAA is considered safer than chlorine and approved both in the U.Ss., E.U., and Russia.
