Public UtilitiesWATER PARKS, SWIMMING POOLS & HOT TUBSThe application of GO2TM in swimming pools requires is stipulated by law in many countries. Use of a minimum prescribed level of chlorine is necessary to avoid the build-up of chlorite due to the presence of nitrogen via urine in swimming pools. Chlorine is only effective as a disinfectant within a pH-range of 5 to 7.5. In swimming pools the pH-level may vary. Before chlorine can be effective chemicals must be added to control the pH to the required level. In swimming pools the chloramines (bonded chlorine) cause negative side effects for the human body, including the production of harmful Trihalomethane byproducts (THM?s) and chlorine odor. Chlorine is a blood poison and carcinogenic. Additionally, many micro-organisms have become resistant against chlorine. By using GO2TM the amount of chlorine required plus additional chemicals decreases tremendously and yet delivers superior sterilization results and no harmful byproducts. A reduction in use of up to 65% of chlorine is possible. InfoThe chlorine-GO2TM concept for swimming pools provides clear, safe, disinfected and high quality swimming water without the typical swimming pool odor.The chlorine-GO2TM concept for Swimming Pools is easy to implement within present swimming pool installations. Advantages of GO2TM in Swimming Pools:
Economical Savings by the chlorine-GO2TM concept
Equipment required to use GO2TMA dosage pump with metrics instruments and 2 storage containers to create GO2TM 4,000 ppm solution.A combination of (reduced) chlorine plus GO2TM for water parks, swimming pools and hot tubs provides clear, safe, perfectly treated and high quality bathing water without the typical swimming pool odor. The chlorine/GO2TM combination is easy to implement and requires no change to existing infrastructure, equipment or installations. The dual systems allows savings on electrical power and conditioning chemicals and via reduced consumption of chlorine and the elimination of carbon filters. Standard Filtration and ChlorineFiltration systems incorporate a carbon membrane sensor to measure chlorine. The chlorine sensor measures the total chlorine in a swimming pool or water park. A membrane sensor for chlorine dioxide is also required in the circulation system. The sensor is calibrated to measure the actual chlorine level in the distribution system. Disinfection of the filters breaks down slime sediments and avoids the influx of such sediments into the swimming pool. When a combination of chlorine and GO2TM is used to clean swimming pools a certain period of time is required before the water is fully clean, and clear.The excellent disinfection characteristics of the chlorine-GO2TM combination will rid the entire water distribution system of slimes. As the system is cleaned, strings of sediments will become visible in the pool. Usage of the pool should be temporarily avoided until these sediments are no longer visible. The fine-tuning of the dosage is always a matter of measurement and adjustment, depending upon the age of the system, the initial standard of the water, temperature and other factors. However, the final results are stunning and the water thereafter remains at a higher level of sanitization and quality than previously. The standard dosage for GO2TM 4,000 ppm is 2mg/L. The standard dosage for chlorine depends on local law and regulations. For example, in the Netherlands, the minimum required dosage is 0.5mg/L chlorine. In Germany that level is 0.2mg/L. |
