The outbreak of the new crown virus at home and abroad has brought unprecedented challenges to people's lives. At the same time, an in-depth scientific popularization of the virus and its spread has been done to the people of the whole country. The government and the people will pay more attention to public health issues. And with the reform of the national high school entrance examination, swimming officially enters the 2020 national high school examination assessment project, and the water quality management and safety management of the swimming pool have become the core issues of common concern for the country and the public.

Swimming pool water quality

The national standard "Requirements for Hygienic Index Limits in Public Places (GB 37487-2019)", which was implemented in 2019, puts forward higher requirements for swimming pool water quality.

At present, domestic swimming pools and spas are facing the problem of chlorine disinfection derivatives. Because the dose of chlorine disinfection is not well controlled, it will cause harmful chemical residual chlorine to enter the air through the water body and float on the water surface during the disinfection process. If the concentration of chemical residual chlorine is too high, it will cause damage to the respiratory tract and highly irritating to the eye mucosa and skin. If a swimmer inhales excessive amounts of chlorine and derivatives during exercise, the response after swimming varies according to the tolerance of each person, such as dry mouth, dizziness, nausea, and even cough and asthma.

Ozone generator

National and industry standards use residual chlorine as an indicator to determine the disinfection of swimming pools. Excessive residual chlorine will cause irritation to the eye mucosa, skin mucosa and oral mucosa. If the residual chlorine concentration is too low, the pool water will not be disinfected, and the bacteria and pathogenic microorganisms in the pool water may multiply excessively, thereby causing Disease spread. Therefore, the residual chlorine concentration cannot be too high or too low.

Residual chlorine (including free residual chlorine and chemical residual chlorine) is the key to controlling swimming pool water quality. The new national standard requires the concentration of free residual chlorine to be 0.3-1.0mg/L, and the concentration of chemical residual chlorine ≤0.4mg/L, if not Effectively control the total number of bacteria in the pool water, especially the filter bed of the filter. When the free residual chlorine exceeds 1ppm, the combined chlorine may exceed the standard, which will cause irritation to the swimmer's eyes, oral mucosa, respiratory system, skin, etc. .

Medium pressure UV sterilizer

The World Health Organization (WHO) stipulates that: for conventional public or semi-public swimming pools with good water circulation and filtration performance, when operating within the design swimming load range, the entire swimming pool should be routinely disinfected with 1 mg/L of free chlorine. When chlorine is used in combination with ozone or ultraviolet disinfection, a lower free chlorine concentration (0.5 mg/L or lower) is sufficient.
With the mission of "creating a healthy and comfortable water environment", AQUA has specially developed new ozone disinfection equipment and ultraviolet sterilizers for such situations, which sterilize quickly, without secondary pollution, and are green and environmentally friendly. The amount of residual chlorine in the pool water is strictly controlled in accordance with national standards. , Which not only guarantees the disinfection effect of the pool water, but also reduces the generation of chemical residual chlorine to ensure the physical and mental health of swimmers.
