Human Corona Virus, CoVid-19, which suddenly appeared from Wuhan China in 2019, now turned out be a Pandemic, affecting people across the Globe. Currently more than 25 lakh people are infected by the Faceless enemy. With no proven vaccine in sight, control of the spread is a distance dream. With countries locking themselves down, Oil prices shattered, Economies in dolldrums, every human faces the problem.
Only way known to Human race currently is “Social distancing”, avoiding contact with affected persons. Now, the new findings indicate that 80% Indians, who were tested positive were ‘Asymptomatic’ – means ‘one may not know, even who is the passive carrier of Corona’. Then what will be the way forward, to prevent spreading.
“Chlorine Dioxide” is a Chemistry’s gift, which can help in tackling the issue.
- It is a gas, so it spreads in air and kills airborne virus.
- Its size is very small ( 0.124 µm), so that it can easily penetrate into the cell wall of the virus and denature the RNA structure.
- It has very short contact time (CT), which makes it more effective than any other known disinfectants.
- It is a broad spectrum anti- microbial agent, effective against most of the bacteria, viruses and fungi.
- CLO2 releases nascent oxygen upon decomposition during its action as an anti-microbial agent – which makes it very effective. The immune system of many persons; particularly the elderly, is deficient in the ability of providing these highly reactive oxygen derivatives (free-radicals) which are so necessary for attacking the great variety of viral; and bacterial invaders become easy targets for the many diseases.

Though Chlorine dioxide is the potential control against the virus, it is not fully utilized, due to its non availability to common people. It is largely used in Manufacturing industries like Paper, water treatment etc, where it is produced by reacting Chlorate or Chlorite, with chemical substances.
At RII, we have developed a simplified product, ViraNil – which can generate required amounts of Chlorine dioxide, wherever and whenever needed, instantly. ViraNil is supplied as a pouch. Just one has to dip the pouch in water, to generate ClO2.
‘ViraNil – R’ – is a room disinfectant, suitable for disinfecting places, where people gather – like hospitals, bus station, Malls, etc. One has to just add water to the container and keep it open in a strategic place. ViraNil-R shall slowly release ClO2, which spread across in the air around and kill virus / bacteria
.
ViraNil –Spray is for the spray purpose. Useful in industrial applications, where one has to disinfect the entry points, human contact points, office space, shop floor etc. It is provided as a pouch, which has to be dipped in water, to generate 200 ppm ClO2, in 100 lit water. The ClO2 solution can be sprayed on hard / soft surfaces, to disinfect.
- Just add water and use. Its as simple as that…
- Save yourselves and Save your Loved ones.
- Use ViraNil
- Save yourselves and Save your Loved ones.
