Swimming pool is a public place, and its water quality is affected in many ways. For example, air, rain, dust, sunlight, temperature and other surrounding environments will affect the water quality of the swimming pool. Another example is that when a person swims in a swimming pool, human secretions and bacteria and viruses carried by them will also be brought into the swimming pool water. In order to ensure the health of swimmers, the swimming pool water must be disinfected every day to eliminate bacteria and viruses in the swimming pool. Today, I will take you to understand some common problems in swimming pool water treatment

What is the suspended substance in water?

Suspended matter in water refers to particles with a diameter of more than 10mm, which can be seen by the naked eye. These particles are mainly composed of sediment, clay, algae, bacteria, viruses and macromolecular organic matter. They are often suspended in the water flow, making the water turbid. These particles are very unstable and can be removed by sedimentation and filtration.

Why does water smell?

Clean pool water is odorless, tasteless, colorless and transparent liquid. But the polluted water will have abnormal smell.

The water has fishy smell and moldy smell due to algae reproduction or excessive organic matter; Dirty river water often has earthy smell or astringent taste; Hot spring water often has sulfuric acid smell; Groundwater will smell of hydrogen sulfide. Generally speaking, water with more oxygen, more organic matter and more NO2 often has abnormal sweet taste; Water containing sodium chloride has a salty taste; Water containing magnesium sulfate and sodium sulfate has a bitter taste; Iron containing water has a astringent taste.

What causes the turbidity of water?

Because the water contains suspended and colloidal particles, the originally colorless, tasteless and transparent water produces turbidity, which is called turbidity.

Turbidity is a kind of photon effect, that is, the degree to which light is blocked when it passes through the water layer, indicating the ability of the water layer to scatter and absorb light. It is not only related to the content of suspended solids, but also related to the size and shape of the component particles of impurities in water and the reflective properties of their surfaces.

When swimming enters the peak season, it is necessary to pay attention to the changes in the water quality of the swimming pool, maintain the water quality safety of the swimming pool and the pipeline equipment, and ensure a good experience and health and safety problems for customers.
