A range of chemical products are used to maintain water quality in swimming pools. Often a chlorinating product will be used as a disinfecting agent for the pool water. Different substances can be utilised including sodium hypochlorite and 11 chlorinated isocyanurates; in all cases they will be applied to produce a safe level of chlorine in the pool water to provide a disinfectant effect. Typically, a pH adjuster will also be used to keep the pool water an optimum pH level and these products are often acidic, with sodium bisulfate or hydrochloric acid being used. The major problem is that the chlorinator products will react with acids to produce chlorine gas, so when the correct process isn’t followed and the undiluted chlorinator and pH adjuster products get directly mixed, chlorine will be released. The reactions are typically instantaneous, presenting a significant risk to the person who accidently mixed them.
This course is designed to provide awareness of the associated hazards and how to respond to an incident when it occurs.
