Chlorine Tablet Use for Household Water Treatment in Emergencies: Guidance for Tablet Selection
The guide provides information on the use of chlorine tablets as a water treatment method in emergency situations, such as natural disasters or humanitarian crises.
Chlorine tablets are a simple and effective way to treat drinking water in emergency situations. They can kill bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens that can cause illness or disease.
When using chlorine tablets, it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully to ensure that the correct dosage is used. Overdosing can lead to health problems, while underdosing may not effectively treat the water.
Chlorine tablets should be stored in a cool, dry place and replaced regularly to ensure that they remain effective. They should also be kept out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.
