Recent advancements in source water disinfection pretreatment have highlighted the important role of sodium chlorate as an efficient disinfectant in safeguarding public health. With its strong oxidizing properties and long-lasting sterilization effects, sodium chlorate effectively eliminates pathogenic microorganisms in water sources, significantly reducing the burden on subsequent treatment processes and improving drinking water safety.  

 

Experts explain that sodium chlorate, when used in pretreatment, targets algae, organic matter, and chlorine-resistant pathogens while minimizing the formation of disinfection byproducts. It also offers advantages such as high stability and safe transportation. Pilot programs in multiple regions have demonstrated improved water quality compliance rates, ensuring safer drinking water for communities.  

 

Moving forward, with further technological refinement and regulatory standardization, sodium chlorate is expected to become a key solution for source water pretreatment, reinforcing public health protection efforts worldwide.
