Product Usage
Bromochlorohydantoin is widely used in various fields. In water treatment, it serves as an effective agent for sterilization and algae control in industrial circulating water, disinfection of swimming pool water (helping to minimize irritation and chloramine formation), maintenance of landscape water, and sterilization of oilfield injection water to ensure stable system performance. In aquaculture, it is used to disinfect water, eliminate harmful microorganisms, enhance water quality, and reduce the occurrence of diseases.
