Safe and Reliable Sodium Hypochlorite Dosing

Sodium hypochlorite dosing plays a critical role in a wide range of industrial and municipal applications. From disinfecting drinking water and wastewater to bleaching and sanitation in food and beverage processing, sodium hypochlorite provides an effective and widely used solution.

To ensure safety, consistency, and efficiency, a correctly designed sodium hypochlorite dosing system is essential. Poor dosing control can lead to excessive chemical use, reduced effectiveness, and safety risks. Global Pumps provides tailored systems and pump solutions designed to handle the corrosive nature of sodium hypochlorite safely.

Applications and Industries Using Sodium Hypochlorite

Sodium hypochlorite is used across multiple sectors where disinfection and oxidation are critical. Accurate and safe dosing is vital for:

  • Drinking water treatment plants – effective disinfection and pathogen removal.
  • Wastewater treatment facilities – eliminating harmful microorganisms before water is released.
  • Food and beverage processing – sanitation and cleaning-in-place (CIP) systems.
  • Pulp and paper industry – bleaching and microbial control.
  • Swimming pools and recreational water – maintaining safe, sanitised water quality.
  • Chemical manufacturing – oxidation reactions and intermediate processes.

Each of these industries benefits from reliable sodium hypochlorite dosing system design, ensuring safety, compliance, and efficiency.

Pumping Solutions for Sodium Hypochlorite

Because sodium hypochlorite is corrosive, pumps must be selected carefully to ensure chemical compatibility and safe operation. Options include:

  • Air operated diaphragm pumps – ideal for transfer and dosing, available in metallic and non-metallic designs with a wide range of elastomers. These pumps offer leak-free operation and handle the challenges of corrosive chemicals.
  • Drum pumps– suitable for transferring sodium hypochlorite directly from drums or IBCs. Their robust construction allows safe handling of hazardous, corrosive solutions and makes them popular across food and beverage, chemical manufacturing, and wastewater treatment.
  • Hose pumps – recommended when dosing chemicals that may create gases. They deliver reliable flow while managing the degassing challenges common with sodium hypochlorite.
