An aqueous solution, preferably an aqueous disinfectant solution, containing chlorine dioxide and which is capable of forming a foam, and methods for the preparation and use thereof. An aqueous disinfectant solution capable of forming a foam is prepared adding a foaming agent, i.e., a suitable surfactant, to water. Chlorine dioxide may then be added to the solution or it may be generated in situ by reacting an oxidizing agent, a cationic exchange resin in the acidic form, or an acid with a metal chlorite dissolved therein. The resultant foam solution may subsequently be foamed by being mixed with air in a foam generator. The foam solutions of the instant invention are useful as cleaning and/or sanitizing agents.
