Water Disinfection: One of the primary uses of Chloride of Lime in water treatment is for disinfection. When added to water, Calcium Hypochlorite releases chlorine, which effectively kills bacteria, viruses, and other harmful microorganisms. This process helps ensure that the treated water is safe for consumption and meets regulatory standards for potable water.

Oxidation of Contaminants: Calcium Hypochlorite is effective in oxidizing and breaking down organic contaminants, such as algae, bacteria, and ammonia, that can be present in raw water sources. This oxidation process helps improve the overall quality and clarity of the treated water by removing undesirable substances.

Residual Disinfection: After primary disinfection, Chloride of Lime is used to maintain residual chlorine levels in water distribution systems. This residual disinfection ensures continued protection against microbial growth and contamination as the water travels through pipelines to consumers.

Emergency Water Treatment: In emergency situations or during waterborne disease outbreaks, Calcium Hypochlorite can be rapidly deployed to provide immediate disinfection of water supplies. Its stability and effectiveness make it a valuable tool for emergency response teams and disaster relief efforts.
