How Chlorination Works
Chlorination works by adding chlorine to water, where it reacts with microorganisms, destroying their cell walls and disrupting essential processes to eliminate bacteria, viruses, and protozoa. At water treatment plants, it provides primary disinfection, while residual dosing ensures ongoing protection throughout the distribution system, preventing recontamination and maintaining safe, clean water.
FAQs
Do chlorine disinfection solutions provide residual protection?
Yes, chlorine remains active in the water distribution system, maintaining a residual that protects against microbial contamination until it reaches the end user.
How do I monitor chlorine levels in a water treatment system?
Chlorine levels are typically monitored using inline analysers or manual testing kits. FILTEC also provides analysers, control equipment, and ongoing servicing to ensure accurate and reliable chlorine level management.
Is chlorine disinfection effective against all microorganisms?
Chlorine is highly effective against most bacteria and viruses. For resistant microorganisms like Cryptosporidium, FILTEC can design multi-barrier treatment solutions, including UV disinfection or filtration, to complement chlorine systems
What safety precautions are necessary when handling chlorine?
Proper ventilation, PPE, and safety protocols are crucial for handling chlorine. FILTEC’s experienced technicians provide expert support, including system maintenance, calibration, and troubleshooting, ensuring the safe and efficient operation of your chlorine systems.
How does chlorine compare to other disinfection methods?
Chlorine is cost-effective, provides residual protection, and works well for large-scale systems. However, it can produce DBPs and may need complementary treatments, like UV disinfection, for resistant microorganisms.
