Water chlorination is the process of adding chlorine or chlorinecompounds such as sodium hypochlorite to water. This method is used to kill certain bacteria and other microbes in tap water as chlorine is highly toxic.



disadvantages:
Increases the Risk of Asthma. Drinkingchorine contaminated water and swimming in chlorinated pools increases the risk of respiratory problems, such as asthma, particularly in children. Unfortunately, in some cities in the US, the concentration ofchlorine in tap water is just as high as in swimming pools.
