A solid-state chlorine dioxide generator for generating an aqueous solution of ClO is formed within a block comprising an eductor for establishing a vacuum pressure and a reaction column for producing ClO from precursor chemicals. The eductor has a water stream flowing therethrough which establishes a vacuum pressure and draws the ClO from the reaction column into the water stream to form an aqueous ClO solution. The reaction chamber comprises a novel transition zone of increasing flow area wherein the precursor chemicals thoroughly mix resulting in conversion efficiencies of precursors into ClO of 95% and above.
