Since it takes about 1/2 an ounce for 30 gallons and 1 ounce for 60 gallons respectively, I would presume about 3/4 of an ounce for 55 Gallons of water...This is from a website I found to determine the same inquiry. There is some room for discussion, the total they give to start off with doesn't equal the end result they say is capable with 1 gallon of BLEACH. So...I would consult with someone at the Red Cross in your local area and they should be able to confirm these figures.

How many kilos of chlorine need for 135600 liters of water in a pool?

Using regular chlorine bleach (5% solution) at a rate of 6.5 ounces of bleach per 1000 gallons of water gives a chlorination level of 2ppm per 1000 gallons. To get the rate for 2500 gallons, multiply 6.5 by 2 to get 13 ounces for 2000 gallons, then divide 6.5 by 2 to get 3.25 ounces (the amount of bleach needed to treat 500 gallons) and add that to the 13 ounces to get a total of 16.25 ounces of chlorine bleach per 2500 gallons of waterat a level of 2ppm.For a swimming pool, you would likely want a 3ppm chlorine to water ratio (24.375 ounces bleach per 2500 gallons water).
