    Great video, still not sure why US hasn't moved to metric. Makes life (calculations) so much easier.

    what can i use to disinfect my tank water ? can i do it with chlorine ?

      While In theory, you can however, if you get your tank water from a source that has already been treated, then it would be redundant to do so. On top of that, there’s most likely cheaper and safer alternatives and possible filters or filtration systems that will give you the same benefit of disinfecting rather than attempting to disinfect your tank water yourself 😃

    Hi Jim smith. Just a quick question. I have a larrge pond, that has alklainity of 100ppm, pH of 8.5, and is filled with bacteria. I am planning to add calcium hypochlorite into it. I understand at high pH most of the form of the hypochlorite ion will be in the less favourable form, hypochlorite, and very little hypochlorous acid will be there. Now, since hypochlorous acid is much much more effiecent (80x) at kiling bacteria, i assume once added, its concentration will be depleted quite quick. Since it is in equilibrium with hypochlorite ion and H+, so wont the equilibrium respond by shifting left, thus increasing the concentration of the hypochlorous acid and thus reducing the concentration of the hypochlorite ion?

      Hi Michael, If you have any fish or aquatic life in your pond, adding calcium hypochlorite will kill them. The dead fish and plants will create an oxygen demand and may cause an anoxic condition which could create foul odors. If there is a discharge from your pond to a creek or a river, it could cause a fish kill and make you eligible for fines and other legal repercussions. As a water treatment professional, I have always treated any water discharged from my plants to ensure chlorine was never released into the environment. A body of water will always have bacteria so I am not sure what you want to accomplish. I would suggest researching hypolimnetic oxygenation systems and aeration systems instead of adding chlorine to solve your problem. As far as the chemistry of adding calcium hypochlorite to water with a pH of 8.5 and an alkalinity of 100 ppm, I would not expect the pH of the water to change if a small amount of calcium hypochlorite was added to create a low free chlorine residual. If a large amount of calcium hypochlorite was added, I would expect the pH of the water to increase since the pH of calcium hypochlorite is between 10 and 11. Consequently, I would not expect any hypoclorous acid to be formed. Jim

    I found this very informative. Do you think you could put something together concerning The use of Chlorine Dioxide in pre-treatment? There does not seem to be a lot of info out there. Also maybe treatment of water with very high manganese issues with discussion on Sodium permanganate verses Potassium permanganate and how detention time and PH affect the process. Probably can’t fit that into a ten minute video though.

      Hello, Thank you for your email. My videos are based on my experience of over 30 years in water treatment. Unfortunately, I have not worked at a plant with chlorine dioxide or sodium permanganate, so I do not have sufficient experience to develop a video on these processes. Jim

    Sir I want to know that after how much time should I do the residual chlorine titration test after giving bleaching dose (1 liter sample water) in the beaker for chlorine demand test 10 minutes 30 minutes 1 hour Reply

      Mr. Dongue, if you are running an immediate chlorine demand test for a water treatment plant, I suggest you wait an hour. Please ensure you treat the glassware to make it chlorine demand free. For intermediate or long-term chlorine demand, it is best to follow Standard Methods 2350B for which you test the water daily for up to 7 days. Here are three links that may be helpful. www.standardmethods.org/doi/10.2105/SMWW.2882.026 www.scribd.com/document/159987608/2350-Oxidant-Demand-Requirement books.google.com/books?id=YpH7k65WQGkC&pg=PA75&lpg=PA75&dq=Chlorine+Demand+2350+B&source=bl&ots=AHBWZQ4g6K&sig=ACfU3U0XpPCdHvkkuy7lxY2EA_KfRBpZHA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi_wb_B15DyAhWM6p4KHX1lA8wQ6AF6BAggEAM#v=onepage&q=Chlorine%20Demand%202350%20B&f=false
