The Technopool Process SALT WATER LIGHT
A alternative and price-winning process to disinfect swimming-pool water with chlorine compounds, without using chlorine gas or other chlorine chemicals.
Principles of operation of SALT WATER LIGHT
- The natural product salt (sodium chloride, NaCl) is added to the pool water once. Salt concentration from 0.2...0.4% upwards, depending on design.
- The salt dissolves in the water to 40% sodium ions (Na+) and 60% chloride ions (Cl-).
- In the electrolysis cell, the electrochemical reaction produces different chemical compounds:
- Hypochlorous acid (HOCl). HOCI destroys organic substances by oxidation (germs, viruses, algae, bacteria).
- The liberated hydrogen (H2) is dissipated via the entire surfacewithout causing any danger.
- New salt (NaCl) and water (H2O) are produced from the residues (NaOH and HCl).
- The salt is re-used for the electrolytic process.
- The cycle process starts again.
