"It is always preferable to avoid any Hazmat occupancy because OSHA requires a six man trained response team to respond to any release of toxic gas. Since many facilities do not have a six member team available to address a release, Hazmat occupancy environments are not practical."
"Total containment is the safest and most cost effective treatment system available."
George Clifford White

Alternative Disinfections, Fourth Edition
"ChlorTainer is a big money saver, especially compared to scrubber solutions. It meets the fire code and exceeds all other standards.
And the dual vessel makes auto switchover of a new container practical. In fact, it virtually takes care of itself."
Lou Mendes
Lead Plant Operator
Cement Hill Water Treatment Plant, CA
"We have been using the vessel since 1995. Not only is it the safest and easiest method of handling chlorine, it is also the most cost-effective piece of equipment we have purchased since we've been in business.
We did consider purchasing a scrubbing unit, but the opportunity to buy a passive, total containment vessel at the fraction of the cost was by far the most economical decision we could have made."
Jim Enos
President
California Chemical of San Jose, CA
"Cost was a guideline and safety was our primary concern.
'Passive' was a selling point to me.it made a very important difference since we are governed by the EPA rules and regulations.
The ChlorTainer has a preventative maintenance schedule which requires no special training or skills to complete."
Ellis DeWell
Assistant Plant Superintendent
Springfield, Ohio Water Treatment Plant
"This technology single-handedly saves the chlorine gas industry, allowing us [at the water treatment site] to continue to use chlorine gas without having to convert to bleach as a disinfectant alternative."
Scott Rovenpera
Plant Superintendent
Benicia, California Water Treatment Plant
"Total Containment is easier [to use] than a scrubber. It does what is says it will do and we don't have to worry about leaks"
Wayne Fujiwara
Plant Operator
Maui Water Treatment Plant
"Safety for our operators and the surrounding area [was the primary concern]. The locking door adds extra security from prying hands.
It seems to be a fool-proof system. Simplicity is the best ticket"
Rick Roll
North Little Rock, Arkansas Water Treatment Plant
"In response to stricter safety standards, the Santa Cruz Water Department planned to switch from chlorine gas to sodium hypochlorite to meet the system's 300-pound per day chlorine demand. Hypochlorite systems were complex, maintenance intensive and expensive, but not nearly as expensive and complex as a scrubber system for the chlorine gas.
Then we learned about TGO's containment system for chlorine gas. This was a simple system that would allow us to stay with chlorine gas while meeting RMP and PSM requirements.
TGO's system allowed us to stay with this preferred method of disinfection and at a cost of one-fourth that of a new hypochlorite system."
