  2. The Kilacold Bomb was a short-lived "cure" for the cold and other respiratory diseases that was sold during the 1920s, consisting of an ampoule of pure chlorine gas intended to be broken in a sealed room, where the ailing person would stay for an hour.

  4. Chlorine cycle (Biogeochemical cycle 🔄)

    The chlorine cycle is the biogeochemical cycling of chlorine through the atmosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and lithosphere. Chlorine is most commonly found as inorganic chloride ions, or a number of chlorinated organic forms. Over 5,000 biologically produced chlorinated organics have been identified. The cycling of chlorine into the atmosphere and creation of...

  5. Addendum to an earlier post (a long while ago, actually), apparently, what causes chlorine smell can also be caused by sweat and other things, not just urine.

  7. You may be surprised to learn that the unmistakable smell of #chlorine that hits you when you come out of the changing room and into the #swimming pool actually isn't technically the smell of chlorine.

    "This smell is when chlorine is reacting to other materials, particularly #ammonia, in the #water, which comes from #urine and #sweat," Khan says. This ammonia reacts with chlorine and forms chloramine, which is what causes the smell. "So, the smell suggests that there are bodily fluids in the pool reacting with the chlorine," says Khan.

  10. Mixing bleach and vinegar creates potentially lethal #chlorine gas.
    If you notice a pungent smell after mixing household cleaners, you should immediately leave the area and try to breathe in fresh air.
    If you or somebody you know notice any symptoms of chlorine gas poisoning, it’s a good idea to immediately call 911 or the NCPC at 800-222-1222.

  11. As I sit here sipping a gin and tonic in my back yard, next to my pool, listening to the cicadas, I can't help but think "damn, I do love the sounds of #nature, and the smell of #chlorine."

    Not sure what that means, but it is what it is....

  13. I’ve had to use eye drops last night & all morning so far. My eyes were so red from the chlorine at the pool. My fault, I have goggles but rarely wear them. I’ve now looked them out & put them in the swim bag again. Goodness knows why I took them out in the first place.
    I’m also very aware that my legs have calves this morning 😂🤣. #LoveSwimming #Chlorine #Exercise

  14. In a unique study carried out in #drinking #water pipes in Sweden, researchers from Lund University and the local water company tested what would happen if #chlorine was omitted from drinking water.
