Biocide Effectiveness Data

Key Definitions

• Oxidizing Biocides: Biocides that kill microorganisms through an electrochemical process of oxidation (e.g., chlorine, ozone). They are often effective against a broad spectrum of organisms.
• Non-Oxidizing Biocides: Biocides that act through other mechanisms, such as disrupting cell processes. Their spectrum of effectiveness can be more specific (e.g., Triazine is excellent for algae but has no control over bacteria or fungi).
