Hi all
The topic seems to have slightly deviated form the expected course.
So far, it seems that no one knows the answer or not interested in giving the answer why the CDS's concentration become higher than 8000ppm, which is over saturated.
I'm thinking, it maybe because of the method to create CDS.
If the shot glass method is used, maximum concentration would be 8000ppm.
If the method of blowing with mouth or pump, it forcefully presses the chlorine dioxide gas into water with extended pressure, so that the concentration become over saturated.
Personally, I feel 8000ppm is enough for the treatment.
It is strong enough to work.
So, use MMS1 11cc and citric acid 8cc to create CDS with the shot glass method with 1L water.
It will give you around 8000ppm CDS of 1L.
Then if you use 20cc of the CDS with 500cc water bottle, the concentration will be 320ppm.
the solubility of the chlorine dioxide is 0.8g / 100cc
20cc contain 0.16g chlorine dioxide (0.8 / 5)
0.16 / 500cc = 3.2*10^-4 which is 320ppm
30cc 480ppm
40cc 540ppm
50cc 800ppm
But in reality, the figures are lower.
You can try tasting the strength of the CDS.
Then choose the one fitting your taste or condition.
You can modify the concentration easily.
see you
