    Hypo towers, corrosion of PVC liners. Corrosion mechanism?

    Pita: I can't specifically identify the corrosion mechanism for your problem but maybe this is of interest. When caustic is available the following reaction takes place: Cl2 + 2 NaOH = NaOCl + NaCl + H2O once all the caustic is consumed or because of localized chlorine excesses relative to...

    Reaction chemistry between NaHS and chlorine (Cl2)

    I want to chemically remove chlorine from a brine solution by using NaOH and NaHS. Typical reactions used in industry are: 2NaOH + Cl2 = NaCl + NaOCl + H2O and Na2SO3 + NaOCl = Na2SO4 + NaCl but if I substitute NaHS for Na2SO3 what is the reaction and what are the reaction products? Thanks!
