Thanks man the Water Sifu, Appreciate it, listen to all your podcasts on my 40 mile drive to work in the mornings. Have an exam tomorrow, feeling confident. Not arrogant, but confident. Be Blessed
This is great! going in for a state test in a few days and wanted to brush up on breakpoint chlorination... you really explained it better than anyone i've heard it from yet! I'll definitely be playing this when coworkers ask me to help them understand this concept. 10/10!
This is a really good video and you did a great job of explaining breakpoint chlorination. I actually studied up on this for my grade 3 test in wastewater and I was still somewhat confused by breakpoint chlorination but you really broke it down and simplified it, thanks man.
Hey Ty, I just stumbled across your channel doing research for some of my water chemistry videos. You rock man! Great information and explanations! Keep it up!
The video is great, thanks so much. I have a swimming pool, and the video makes me wonder if the folks at the pool store (and certain pool supply websites) are telling me something that's incorrect. They say (1) I should shock my pool from time to time (I think that means I need to reach the breakpoint by adding enough hypochlorite...okay so far) and 2 (here's where I get confused) they say any time I fall short of the breakpoint (by adding insufficient amounts of hypochlorite), it will become harder, and eventually impossible, to reach breakpoint in the future, until eventually I'll need to drain the pool. It seems to me that if I fall slightly short of the breakpoint point, the only problem would be that I'll have no residual chlorine, which can be fixed by adding more hypochlorite. I don't see why falling short would make it harder (or impossible) to reach breakpoint in the future. Am I missing something? Thanks again for your super-clear presentation.
Thanks! Although trihalomethanes are formed as a result of chlorine combining with certain organic precursors, they really don't have anything to do with the breakpoint curve. Including them here would have only confused issues. For more info on THM formation, check out my free podcast (#10, "Biological Contaminants and Disinfection") at the above website.
Do you know why our organic chloramines ( we know we have because we are getting monochloramine:4ppm on our titration and instrumentation with low NH3:< 1ppm coming into the CCB) only drop once the NH3 has dropped below .5 ppm.
hahaha... Thank you for the compliments on the info! As for the music, well it was freeware music that I could use when I started the site, and it was better than the other options. Over time, I'm not sure if I agree with your wife or not. Some days I might say "yes" and other days "no". I actually get a lot of compliments on it from people who think I personally did it, but I could never play that. :-)
Thanks for the vid but I have a big big doubt: Chlorine boiling point is 29.15 F so what will happen when Chlorinated tap water reaches 29.15 F degrees? Chlorine vanishes (vapour)? I hope someone can reply.
You will get some pH change whenever you add chlorine to water, but it shouldn't be massive with the dose given to drinking water. For a detailed description, as well as how it changes whether you use gas chlorine or sodium hypochorite, please give my podcast #28 a listen, "chemicals in water treatment". You can find it at the above link in the video description.
There is no "one size fits all" answer to that question. Contact time is a number arrived at through a calculation which includes many variables such as plant flow, chlorine dose, and water temperature.
Hormin, I think you are confusing what breakpoint chlorination is. It is not a quality of the water itself, so you would not say that treated or non-treated water "has breakpoint". Rather, it is a treatment technique. So you could say that a water has been chlorinated past breakpoint.

Thank you. I appreciate the nice words! I hope you did great on your exam!
@@TheWaterSifu "Stricto Crypto" 🤣🤣 funniest part in the treatment flashcard podcast

what are you doing now? just asking

Thank you, MrLaker. I totally appreciate that.
Not everyone in the government is trying to keep anyone alive. Appreciate you if you take your job seriously
Thank you so much for your comment! I really appreciate it and am glad you find the video helpful. Best of luck with the exam!

Thank you!
Thanks Ty, Appreciate your hard work in helping us for the exams.
Thanks, David.
THank you!!! You actually make sense of it unlike my professor and everything else
You Rock 🎸 Finally in the water industry 🙏 I bought your DVD s! And still review them to this day! Thanks 🔥
:-) Thank you, and congrats on getting into the industry!
Easier to understand than just going through the book, thank you.
Thank you Donovan. Much appreciated.
Nice explanation
Understood it after watching it the second time.
Thank you ... Your video was really helpful , you have a style in explaining .. Thanks again
Cheers , appreciate the videos in 2021, north of the border.

Truly appreciate everything you do man. 🙌🏼🤘🏼
Thank you!
thank you very much you've helped me in my presentaion tomorrow
Very pracitical and helpful. thanks!
Great video. Awsome job on breaking it down.
Thank you for this explanation.
I enjoyed your video very much. Thank you.
There is a God..!!! Thanks!! Trying to get my liscense in Ny thank you for your info!!
i can't believe i just found you, where have you been all my life???? you've had this since 2012????? a whole year wasted!!!
thanks a lot! great ability of explanation! but i want to know about the THM in this process plz

Hi Ty, when I go to test my pool water the chlorine test shows no level of chlorine, just a milky white look. what does that indicate???
Thanks
Rob
Thank you !!! Great explanation!
Thanks for fantastic information

Wanna hop in on your podcast. Could you give me the link?
They are all on the website linked in the description for this post, or you can just search The Water Sifu in any podcast directory.
It's helped me sir thank you
thank you. this video really helps!
Great video. Thanks.
How to remove the chlorate (ClO3) from disinfection solution?
What is the difference betweenfree chlorine and residual chlorine And what is required in the sewage rate
Thank you very much for the compliments! ... and speaking of paying, I promise everyone I didn't pay you for those very kind words... lol
thanks excellent and simple to understand
Which one is the better at killing pathogens? Free or Combined? Which I be gives a medicinal taste?
Do you know why our organic chloramines ( we know we have because we are getting monochloramine:4ppm on our titration and instrumentation with low NH3:< 1ppm coming into the CCB) only drop once the NH3 has dropped below .5 ppm.
Caleb, Sorry I can't help ya with that one without knowing your plant and all the factors that would apply.
Helpful, thanks sir,
Dude your info is great. Music not so much at least for my wife
hahaha... Thank you for the compliments on the info! As for the music, well it was freeware music that I could use when I started the site, and it was better than the other options. Over time, I'm not sure if I agree with your wife or not. Some days I might say "yes" and other days "no".

Thanks I am having a retake on this 😁😀😊😚🤗🙃
Thanks for the vid but I have a big big doubt:
Chlorine boiling point is 29.15 F so what will happen when Chlorinated tap water reaches 29.15 F degrees? Chlorine vanishes (vapour)?
I hope someone can reply.
Is there a PH change that's associated with break point chlorination?

Thank you so much for responding. Also thank you for this, as well as your other excellent videos.
I cant understand the reason behind the first drop of the curve. I s any one can explain
What should be contact time of chlorine in water 10 minute or 30 minutes or x minute ? Please reply
There is no "one size fits all" answer to that question. Contact time is a number arrived at through a calculation which includes many variables such as plant flow, chlorine dose, and water temperature.
well explained to be honest! thank you.
Do clean water have breakpoint?
Hormin, I think you are confusing what breakpoint chlorination is. It is not a quality of the water itself, so you would not say that treated or non-treated water "has breakpoint". Rather, it is a treatment technique. So you could say that a water has been chlorinated past breakpoint.
Thank you so much!!!!😁
Thanks a lot sir 👏👏
Thank you
kamsahamida for my revision :D
Very helpful
Thank you sir
Thank you!
thanks brotha!
excellent!
cool
Thanks
Honoured to have learned chemistry from Jesus himself..
narley dude
lol... Thank you! That cracked me up.
rock music at the pool is the best. pisses me off when some a hole blares some rap music or techno crap
Tq
damn im lost!!!
hahaha ... i understand. Watch it again. Best of luck to you my friend.
