Due to the hazardous nature of the liquid or gaseous chlorine, engineering and management controls are employed to minimize risks associated with its handling and use. Using aqueous sodium hypo-chlorite for disinfection or bleaching eliminates the inherent risks associated with storing and handling liquid or gaseous chlorine.

As an alternative to using liquid or gas chlorine, chlorine as aqueous sodium hypochlorite an inherently safer form makes modern bleach or disinfectant consumer industries to heavily rely on sodium hypochlorite. Sodium Hypochloritesolutions have attained wide-spread usage in bleaching operations and as disinfectants, both in the home and in industry. Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) are commercially produced onsite by the reaction of chlorine and sodium hydroxide solution formed as major co-products from the chlor-alkali production membrane cells.

RT AME, The Advanced Membrane Cell

RT AME, the membrane electrolysis electrolyser generates chlorine and caustic, formed by separation of sodium-chloride ions with purified water at ion-exchange membranes.

TiTaN’s RT HYPOFORTE technology produces membrane grade sodium hypochlorite bleach of high quality at required concentration with the only feed in purified salt and water, operating the plant at a minimum cost and maximum safety compared to other existing commercial processes.

TiTaN’s RT HYPO FORTE, the membrane electrolysis technology provides safe and cost effective production of high purity, commercial-strength sodium hypochlorite solution with the simple, less expensive and easy source raw materials; purified salt (brine), water and electricity. RT HYPO FORTE produces pure bleach at the required concentrations either for own internal use on-site or alternatively distribution and consumer sale.

The RT HYPO FORTE electrochemical technology,a specific design for continuous production of commercial hypochlorite on-site, economically and harmless alternative to a disinfection with chlorine gas,chlorine bleaching or other compounds of chlorine. RT HYPO FORTE, the safe, zero-polluting and multi-configurable system produces bleach at required concentrations, ranging from 5 % to 15% of trade grade.

TiTaN’s Sodium chlorate manufacturing system consists of Electrolyzers, a reactor, a cooler, Crystallizer, Centrifuge, Dryer, Inter-connecting piping. When direct current is applied, the hydrogen gas is evolved at the Cathode, which displaces liquor and reduces the specific gravity of the electrolyte in the electrolyser and the outlet piping. The differential specific gravity between the liquor in the electrolyser and that in the reactor creates a high rate of circulation. The circulation is through the cooler, into the bottom of each cell in the electrolyser, between the anodes and cathodes in the cells.

Where electrolysis occur, up the riser pipes to the degasifier (where the hydrogen separates) and back to the top of the reactor.The heat produced in the electrolysers is removed by an external cooler, which maintains the electrolytic system at its optimum operating temperature. The reactor is designed to provide the retention time required for conversion of intermediate reaction products to sodium chlorate.The liquor from the reactor is treated to remove the sodium hypochlorite and then fed to the crystallization system. The crystallization system consists of a crystallizer, Vacuum equipment, a centrifuge and dryer. The crystallizer operates under vacuum conditions. In the vessel, water is flashed from hot incoming hypo-free chlorate liquor and crystal formation and growth takes place. The mother liquor is returned to the Electrolysers. The crystals are washed and dried to form the final product.

SODIUM CHLORATE MANUFACTURING PROCESS

The manufacturing process of Sodium chlorate involves the electrolysis of an acidified sodium chloride solution in a specially designed Electrolyser.First, raw brine is treated to remove impurities such as calcium and magnesium. Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is added to control the pH and improve efficiency. Sodium dichromate is used as a catalyst, to inhibit electrochemical side reactions and as a pH buffer.

Chlorine swimming pools have a tendency to irritate skin and eyes by spending a period of time in a chlorine swimmingpool. Body itching and eyes will be bloodshot by using chlorine in swimming pools.
With a salt water swimming pool there are no so said problems and are free from itching or burning eyes after spending long time in salt water swimming pool.

This makes the salt water swimming pool the choice of most homeowners in the market today.

Water is considered as a raw material in industrial processes. When water is a raw material, it has to strictly meet the requirements due to the concerned process in terms of purity, salinity, microbiological presence, pathogens, solids, turbidity, undesirable salts. WATER provides a good environment for harmful microbes to grow and causes biological fouling and corrosion in water and reduces the efficiency of the condensers used for cooling or process in refining of oil/gas products, specialty chemicals (petrochemical refineries), power plant and other process industries.

BIO INVASION AND AQUATIC INVASIVE SPECIES: Ships often take up ballast water in ports and coastal regions, where the ecosystems have a rich diversity of life. These biologically diverse waters, and their underlying sediments,including many forms of viruses, bacteria, plankton, algae, crustaceans, plants and animals, are sucked into vessels’ ballast tanks. Ballast water released during various stages of the ship’s journey, including at sea, along coastlines, and in various ports, results a diverse mix of organisms transported and released around the world.In addition, ballast water can carry organisms that endanger public health, including toxic dinoflagellates and cholera bacteria, having ecological effects.

In order to stop an invasion, organisms must not be discharged from ballast tanks. This action can be achieved by not taking organisms into ballast tanks, killing organisms during the voyage, or not discharging organisms when ballast water is released.
