However, there was a difference in chloramine toxicity among the three species tested; killifish were more susceptible than either of the other two species, probably reflecting differences in metabolic regulation or uptake rates. Behavioral aberrations—distended gills and erratic swimming behavior—of ...
To understand when and how to adjust the chlorine levels in your pool, you must first understand the difference between free chlorine and chloramine. Free Chlorine and Chloramines When chlorine is first added to pool or spa water, it is calledfree chlorine. This is pure chlorine that isavailable...
Chlorine and chloramine are chemicals, which means they can occasionally change the properties of your water so it interacts differently with your plumbing. Water treated with chloramine could affect certain pipes; as a result, metals likeleadand copper could leech into your water supply, causing se...
(FAC). In the oxidation of ammonia, both the total nitrogen and the positive chlorine titre in the solution remain high up to ratios of FAC: NH3= 1 due to the intermediate formation of chloramine NH2Cl, known as “combined chlorine” (Jafvert & Valentine, 1992). Beyond FAC: NH3= 1 NH...
Chloramines (NH2Cl) are a chemical compound of chlorine and ammonia and cannot be boiled out. It can't even be allowed to sit for a few days to remove the Chloramines before adding this water to an aquarium. Chloramine is formed through the reaction of dissolved chlorine gas and ammonia in...
Study of N-chloramine reactivity in chlorine-disinfected wastewater: Toward reduction of toxic residuals by more effective dechlorination. N-chloramines, which are oxidants produced in chlorine-disinfected wastewaters, were determined using liquid chromatography (LC) and flow injection analysi... M Bedner...
chloramine intermediates react with NO2−, converting back to NH3as end products42. This process further influences the dynamics of NH3/HOCl interactions. The main interference arises from HOCl that converts NO2−to NO3−at a kinetic rate five orders of magnitude faster than chloramine reactio...
No significant difference in attached bacterial counts was found between the same generic types of pipe materials. This study suggests the use of cement and asbestos cement pipes for the distribution of chlorine-monochloramine treated water. Statistical evidence also showed that all physico-chemical ...
ECOsmarte®'scommercial pool systemshelp facilities run more efficiently while reducing chlorine use drastically. We eliminate chlorine-resistant parasites and ensure a zero-chloramine environment.
