2. Shock chlorination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_chlorination

   Shock chlorination is a process used in many swimming pools, water wells, springs, and other water sources to reduce the bacterial and algal residue in the water. Shock chlorination is performed by mixing a large amount of sodium hypochlorite , which can be in the form of a powder or a liquid such as chlorine bleach , into the water.

3. Water chlorination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_chlorination

   As an alternative to shock chlorination, some swimming pools are chlorinated by use of a chlorine-generating filter that electrolyzes common salt. Pools chlorinated by this method generally have lower levels of chlorine than directly chlorinated pools. Such pools are called saltwater pools. [citation needed]

   Excess cyanurates will actually work in reverse and will inhibit the chlorine. A steadily lowering pH value of the water may at first be noticed. Algal growth may become visible, even though chlorine tests show sufficient levels. [18] Chlorine reacting with urea in urine and other nitrogen-containing wastes from bathers can produce chloramines ...

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_water_chlorination

   Salt water chlorination is a process that uses dissolved salt (1000–4000 ppm or 1–4 g/L) for the chlorination of swimming pools and hot tubs.The chlorine generator (also known as salt cell, salt generator, salt chlorinator, or SWG) uses electrolysis in the presence of dissolved salt to produce chlorine gas or its dissolved forms, hypochlorous acid and sodium hypochlorite, which are already ...
