Inorganic bromine is found in the atmosphere and is quickly cycled between its gas and its particulate phase. Bromine gas (Br 2 ) undergoes an autocatalytic cycle known as the ' bromine explosion ', which occurs in the ocean and salt lakes such as the Dead Sea , where a high quantity of salts are exposed to the atmosphere.
In 1840, bromine was discovered to have some advantages over the previously used iodine vapor to create the light sensitive silver halide layer in daguerreotypy. [ 25 ] By 1864, a 25% solution of liquid bromine in .75 molar aqueous potassium bromide [ 26 ] was widely used [ 27 ] to treat gangrene during the American Civil War, before the ...
Brine mining is the extraction of useful materials (chemical elements or compounds) which are naturally dissolved in brine.The brine may be seawater, other surface water, groundwater, or hyper-saline solutions from several industries (e.g., textile industries). [1]
A guest on a Norwegian Cruise Line got stuck in the closed-tubed, double-looped ride that sends sliders out over the ocean. Cruise guest gets stuck on 'claustrophobic' water slide suspended over ...

In the original invention, bromide-containing brines are treated with sulfuric acid and bleaching powder to oxidize bromide to bromine, which remains dissolved in the water. The aqueous solution is dripped onto burlap, and air is blown through causing bromine to volatilize. Bromine is trapped with iron turnings to give a solution of ferric bromide.
The solution: a $25-million series of wells that will suck water out of the ground and spit it into the ocean, effectively drying up thelubricated landscape enough to stop the land from sliding.
Tampa Typhoon: a water slide that closed after the 2005 season. The slide opened in the late 1980s and shared a tower with Gulf Scream, a current water slide attraction. Standing nearly 70 feet (21 m), or seven stories tall, the ride allowed patrons to see for miles around, including a view of the nearby MOSI museum. Gulf Scream
