35% Hydrogen Peroxide Solution
35% Hydrogen Peroxide Solution
(OP)
I have forgotten this information.
I have a 150 Gallon Storage Tank that I'm going to disinfect with a 35% Hydrogen Peroxide Solution.
I need to know,
How many gallons of 35% Hydrogen Peroxide Solution do I use to disinfect the 150 gallons of water?
It's been a while since I've done this. Usually using ozone. I have some biofilm build-up so I'm going to use the Peroxide and let it sit overnight, then flush.

RE: 35% Hydrogen Peroxide Solution
"Hydrogen peroxide is frequently used as a biocide in microelectronic-grade purified-water systems because it produces no by-products; it rapidly degrades to water and oxygen. A 10% by volume solution in purified water appears effective in killing planktonic bacteria, but more studies are needed on the effectiveness against attached biofilm" (Mittelman 1986).

Looks like you will need 43 gallons of 35% peroxide to get a 10% solution.
