Description
Historically, the drinking water industry has used specific sulfur-based compounds to neutralize chlorine. These reagents include sodium thiosulfate, sodium bisulfate and sodium metabisulfite. However, during dosing applications, these “good-old-boy chemicals” can present distinct health hazards to the waterworks operator and/or the fish that occupy nearby streams. Vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid (and later, sodium ascorbate) was discovered to be an effective neutralizer of oxidants such as chlorine. Vitamin C is just as effective, and in many important ways, better than other sulfur-based chlorine neutralizers. Vitamin C offers an important advantage by synergistically boosting the immune system of fish while simultaneously removing toxic disinfectant dangers from their sensitive habitat.
