Swimming pools are subject to strict regulations under Dutch law (Omgevingswet / Bal15). Exceeding limits for substances such as chlorate, bromate, trihalomethanes (THMs), chloramines and bicarbonate can lead to health risks, legal issues and reputational damage. Operators often struggle with fluctuating water chemistry, especially when disinfectants react with organic matter. This leads to the formation of harmful by-products. Furthermore, improper chemical storage and dosing can further complicate compliance.

Still using sodium hypochlorite? Why legal limits are at risk without advanced in-situ electrolysis

Conservative solutions rely on either ready-made sodium hypochlorite which deteriorates quickly and loses effectiveness during storage. Resulting in lots of harmful by-products causing exceeding the thresholds. Although in-situ open cell technology is already a better and cost-effective alternative to ready-made sodium hypochlorite, we can take in situ electrolysis to the next level.

Ultra-Pure Chlorine for Pools: chlorate-free disinfection via Membrane Electrolysis

Our Chlorinsitu®-V system can generate ultra-pure chlorine via membrane electrolysis, delivering chlorate- and chloride-free disinfection with unmatched precision. Combined with automated pH correction and CL2 dosing, we offer secure minimal chemical storage and low energy consumption, ideal for both compact and large-capacity pools.

Our membrane electrolysis systems are designed for maximum efficiency. Unlike conventional membrane electrolysis, our technology produces ultra-pure chlorine on-site with minimal energy input.  

This high electrolysis effectiveness not only reduces operational costs but also potentially lowers the need for refreshing pool water. By maintaining stable water quality and minimizing the formation of unwanted by-products, our systems help pool operators stay well within legal limits, while consuming less energy and conserving water. By dividing the product stream through high-performance membrane cloths, we isolate the active chlorine from impurities at molecular level. This results in an exceptionally pure disinfectant, perfectly suited for sensitive applications such as wellness centers and low-chlorate swimming pools.

CHLORINSITU® as your solution

Do you manage a swimming pool, wellness center, or tropical water park? Then you need the purest and safest form of disinfection. We have the solution.

The CHLORINSITU® is a membrane cell electrolysis system that produces sodium hypochlorite on site.

Ideal for swimming pools that demand top performance in water quality and swimming comfort.

Reliable disinfection, even during peak hours.

Our recently developed hybrid system uses membrane technology for ultra-pure chlorine gas under normal conditions. During peak hours, a backup open cell unit produces sodium hypochlorite on-demand—ensuring safe, clear water without storage or quality loss for pools with fluctuating visitor numbers. By adding an open cell unit for peak hours, we accommodate our customers with their variable capacity challenges. This solution is both highly effective and cost-effective for addressing occasional elevation in demand.

Reduce your pool’s environmental footprint with Ultra-Pure, chlorate-free Disinfection

Our ultrapure chlorine eliminates chlorate formation, reducing water refreshment and heating needs. With an average lifespan of 15 years, our durable systems support sustainable, low-energy pool operation with minimal footprint.

No more hazardous chemical transport or handling.

Our systems produce disinfectants directly on-site, eliminating the need for external sodium hypochlorite deliveries. This ensures safer operations in often densely populated areas and removes the need for manual chemical dosing by pool staff. The only handling is that of regular salt (NaCL).
