2. Boric acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boric_acid

   Boric acid is a weak acid, with pK a (the pH at which buffering is strongest because the free acid and borate ion are in equal concentrations) of 9.24 in pure water at 25 °C. But apparent pK a is substantially lower in swimming pool or ocean waters because of interactions with various other molecules in solution. It will be around 9.0 in a ...

3. Sodium borate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_borate

   Sodium borate is a generic name for any salt of sodium with an anion consisting of boron and oxygen, and possibly hydrogen, or any hydrate thereof. It can be seen as a hydrated sodium salt of the appropriate boroxy acid , although the latter may not be a stable compound.

4. Clarifying agent - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarifying_agent

   Flocculants are used in water treatment processes to improve the sedimentation or filterability of small particles. For example, a flocculant may be used in swimming pool or drinking water filtration to aid removal of microscopic particles which would otherwise cause the water to be turbid (cloudy) and which would be difficult or impossible to ...

5. Swimming pool bacteria - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swimming_Pool_Bacteria

   Swimming pool bacteria are the diverse array of bacteria that are present in aquatic environments, primarily swimming pools, which can have effects on human health and water quality. Recreational waters are known to be source of infectious diseases .

6. Borax - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borax

   Borax (also referred to as sodium borate, tincal (/ ˈ t ɪ ŋ k əl /) and tincar (/ ˈ t ɪ ŋ k ər /)) is a salt (ionic compound), a hydrated or anhydrous borate of sodium, with the chemical formula Na 2 H 20 B 4 O 17. [1] [a] It is a colorless crystalline solid that dissolves in water to make a basic solution.

7. Borate buffered saline - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borate_buffered_saline

   They are formulated to give a ready to use borate buffered saline solution upon dissolution in 500 ml of deionized water. Concentration of borate and NaCl as well as the pH can vary, and the resulting solution would still be referred to as "borate buffered saline". Borate concentration (giving buffering capacity) can vary from 10 mM to 100 mM.

8. Swimming pool sanitation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swimming_pool_sanitation

   Two distinct and separate methods are employed in the sanitation of a swimming pool. The filtration system removes organic waste on a daily basis by using the sieve baskets inside the skimmer and circulation pump and the sand unit with a backwash facility for easy removal of organic waste from the water circulation.

9. Borate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borate

   Borate ions occur, alone or with other anions, in many borate and borosilicate minerals such as borax, boracite, ulexite (boronatrocalcite) and colemanite. Borates also occur in seawater, where they make an important contribution to the absorption of low frequency sound in seawater. [1] Borates also occur in plants, including almost all fruits. [2]
