SESTBIO Chlorine dioxide for agriclture
In agriculture, water quality is a crucial factor affecting crop health, disease prevention, and overall yield.
Irrigation water is typically sourced from rivers, ponds, and reservoirs, which may contain contaminants such as bacteria, algae, and mineral deposits. These impurities can cause blockages in irrigation systems and contribute to the spread of plant diseases, particularly fungal infections.
Additionally, the growth of microorganisms in irrigation pipes can lead to reduced water flow and biofilm formation. This biofilm not only obstructs the system but also increases the risk of spreading harmful pathogens across irrigated areas, further compromising crop quality and health.


Advantage of SESTBIO Chlorine dioxide for agriculture:
Improving Irrigation Water Quality
SESTBIO Chlorine Dioxide is highly effective in treating irrigation water, removing contaminants that can impact plant health. By eliminating pathogens, algae, and other harmful microorganisms, SESTBIO Chlorine dioxide helps ensure that water reaching the crops is free from pollutants. This improved water quality reduces the likelihood of disease spread within crops and supports optimal plant growth.
Preventing Plant Diseases
Pathogens in water can easily spread to plants, causing diseases that reduce crop yield and quality. SESTBIO Chlorine Dioxide’s powerful disinfection capability allows it to control various waterborne pathogens, including bacteria, fungi, and viruses. By preventing these pathogens from reaching plants, SESTBIO Chlorine dioxide helps maintain a disease-free environment, reducing the need for chemical pesticides and promoting healthier crops.
Biofilm Control in Irrigation Systems
Biofilms in irrigation systems are a common problem that can block pipes, reduce water flow, and protect pathogens from standard disinfection methods. SESTBIO Chlorine Dioxide is particularly effective at penetrating and breaking down biofilms, ensuring that irrigation systems remain clean and functional. This biofilm control not only enhances water distribution efficiency but also prevents recontamination of water by harmful microorganisms.
Apply chlorine dioxide solutions in agriculture:
- Dosing a liquid chlorine dioxide solution directly into irrigation flow
- Using a manual or automatic spraying device to treat vegetation
- A chlorine dioxide spray to prevent algae growth on hard surfaces and path ways.
- Post harvest washing and disinfection of fruits and vegetables
- Tree injection to eliminate specific germs
- Treat stored water in ponds and tanks with chlorine dioxidea
