Sodium chlorite is also used for various industrial applications. It controls microbial contamination in industrial cooling systems and towers. It is used in place of chlorine in industrial ammonia plants because it does not react negatively with ammonia. Since it is an oxidizer, it is often a part of flue gas scrubber systems. Food-processing companies use it for washing fruits and vegetables because it is a fungicide. Meat and poultry are also washed with a solution, as is food processing equipment. Finally, it is an anti-mildew agent in detergent compositions and has been used in toothpaste and contact lens solutions.

As a textile-bleaching agent, sodium chlorite is effective with various fibers. It can be used on cotton, bast fibers, and man-made fibers like nylon, Perlon, Dralon, and Rhovyl. It has an oxidizing effect on many of the natural waxes and pectins found in cellulose fibers. It helps solubilize them and makes the fiber more even and workable. It has the added benefit of destroying natural color matter without attacking the fibers themselves. This makes it useful for making permanent white fabrics without compromising tensile strength.
Sodium chlorite is a powerful oxidizer which makes make it a useful pesticide and herbicide. Sodium chlorite plays a very important role to deactivate many types of poisons by interacting with them and changing their chemical composition due to its powerful oxidizing powers.
It is helpful in bleaching various types of materials, such as wood, oils, and other textile products.
Sodium Chlorite is being mainly supplied to textile industry, water purification Industry, etc. SODIUM CHLORITE pure is a white crystalline solid. Difficult to burn, but accelerates the burning of organic substances. Forms explosive mixtures with certain combustible materials.

NaClO2 or ClNaO2 have 2 No of Hydrogen Bond Acceptor capacity. Most Commonly Used in water purification, to bleach wood pulp, textile, fats, oils; and for many other uses.
Sodium chlorite can be combined with citric acid for antimicrobial treatment. This treatment can be used on meats, poultry, fish, fruits and vegetables. It can be applied in food and water treatments to kill various microbial and parasites without eliminating healthy bacteria needed by our digestive system.
Sodium Chlorite for DRINKING WATER : When put in an acid solution, sodium chlorite breaks down into chlorine dioxide. When added to a municipal water supply, chlorine dioxide helps control unwanted tastes and odors. It also aids in the removal of ions like iron and manganese. One added benefit is that it helps eliminate trihalomethanes in drinking water.
