Disinfectants

Chlorine-containing disinfectants are effective agents that produce hypochlorous acid when dissolved in water. They can be categorized into inorganic compounds, such as hypochlorites, and organic compounds, including chloramines. Common examples of inorganic chlorine disinfectants include Calcium Hypochlorite (Bleaching Powder Essence), Sodium Hypochlorite (84 disinfectant), and mixtures based on bleaching powder and chloramines. Organic chlorine disinfectants include Trichloroisocyanuric Acid and Chloramine.

Chlorine-containing disinfectants have diverse applications, including Drinking Water Disinfection, Sewage Treatment, Environmental Disinfection, and Controlling Disease Outbreaks. They offer wide-ranging effectiveness at an affordable cost. However, it’s important to note that these disinfectants have bleaching and corrosive properties and may emit a pungent odor.
