Description

RXSOL Calcium Hypochlorite is a widely used chlorine compound that is highly effective against bacteria, algae, slime, fungi and other harmful and objectionable micro-organisms. Since calcium hypochlorite as a solution is a very efficient killer of virtually all bacteria, algae and other objectionable micro-organisms, it is used as a standard for comparison testing of other sanitizing chemicals. While calcium hypochlorite is used primarily to chlorinate swimming pool, spa and hot tub water, and to treat water supplies and sewage, it is also frequently used as a bleaching agent and sanitizer in industrial applications.

Application

RXSOL Calcium Hypochlorite is a widely used chlorine compound that is highly effective against bacteria, algae, slime, fungi and other harmful and objectionable micro-organisms. Since calcium hypochlorite as a solution is a very efficient killer of virtually all bacteria, algae and other objectionable micro-organisms, it is used as a standard for comparison testing of other sanitizing chemicals. While calcium hypochlorite is used primarily to chlorinate swimming pool, spa and hot tub water, and to treat water supplies and sewage, it is also frequently used as a bleaching agent and sanitizer in industrial applications.

Rxsol Calcium Hypochlorite granules can be used for continuous chlorination or applied manually.Swimming Pool, Spa and Hot Tub Operators use calcium hypochlorite as a routine sanitizer to kill and prevent the growth of algae, bacteria, and other microorganisms. It is also widely used as a shock treatment to destroy organic contamination in pool water, thereby improving the water clarity. Strong calcium hypochlorite solutions serve as disinfectants for cleaning pool sides and bottoms, decks, diving boards, ladders, floats, locker and shower room floors and benches, sinks and toilets.

Municipal Water Treatment —


Municipalities use calcium hypochlorite in place of chlorine gas or liquid bleach to purify water. It is also effective for treating wells; sanitizing new water mains; controlling algae, especially sudden growths, in reservoirs, filters and other equipment; treating sewage and controlling odors.

Wastewater Treatment —
Calcium hypochlorite is used to treat wastewater effluents under controlled conditions by textile mills, paper mills, tanneries, food processing plants and more.

Other Applications —

Other uses for alcium hypochlorite include sanitizing food and beverage containers and production equipment in dairies, restaurants, hospitals and farms. Calcium hypochlorite also is used to control algae and slime in commercial and industrial cooling water systems.

Dosage & Procedure

HS Code 28281090


Drinking Water disinfectant easiest process is  to add  1-pound of calcium hypochlorite in granular form in to 10,000 gallons of drinking water.  And Calcium Hypochlorite is widely available for use as swimming pool chlorine tablets or white powder that is much more stable than chlorine.
 

Variety of disease causing organisms including bacteria, yeast, fungus, spores, and viruses growing in water.  RXSOL brand have easiest method to test such polluted water by simple test method.

Technical Specifications

How to Disinfect Water Using Calcium Hypochlorite ?
A.)  Dissolve 1  teaspoon 60-78% granular calcium hypochlorite in 7 - 8 liters of water . B.) Then add this solution 1 part to  disinfect water to 100 parts water to be treated. Finally keep mixed water to settle completely for 20 - 30 minutes before drinking. NOTE ::: Freshly prepared ( A.) solution is recommended to make 2nd step ( B.) drinking water.

Better than Bleach: Use Calcium Hypochlorite to Disinfect Water
Because liquid bleach solution begin to degrade and eventually become useless as a disinfecting agent. While Granual is always effective to treat water as disinfectant.

Inhalation

Dust and mist irritate the nose and throat. In confined areas, mechanical agitation can result in high levels of dust, and reaction with incompatibles materials (e.g., acids and water/moisture) can result in high concentrations of chlorine vapour, either of which may result in burns to the respiratory tract, producing lung edema, shortness of breath, wheezing, choking, chest pains, impairment of lung function, and possible permanent lung damage.

Skin Contact / Absorption

Calcium hypochlorite dust and solutions can cause irritation and in severe cases, chemical burns, which are characterized by redness, swelling, and scab formation. Moisture from perspirations will accelerate tissue destruction.

Eye Contact

Exposure to calcium hypochlorite can cause eye irritation and vision impairment. Contact can produce impairment of vision and corneal damage.

Ingestion

 When ingested, there will be burning of the mouth and throat. Can cause abdominal cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, and/or tissue ulceration which may lead to convulsions, coma, and even death.

Exposure Limits

 Ceiling= 3mg/m3 as chlorine (manufacturer's internal standard)

Inhalation

 Remove victim to fresh air. Give artificial respiration only if breathing has stopped. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Seek immediate medical attention.

Skin Contact / Absorption 

 Remove contaminated clothing. Wash affected area with soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation occurs or persists.

Eye Contact

  Flush immediately with water for at least 20 minutes. Forcibly hold eyelids apart to ensure complete irrigation of eye tissue. Seek immediate medical attention.

Ingestion 

 Immediately give large amounts of water. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean victim forward to prevent breathing in vomitus. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious or convulsing person.
Seek immediate medical attention.
