Can you use halazone instead of chlorine to keep pool clean?

Halizone is used for water to be consumed internally. Never heard of it being used in a swimming pool. Why do you ask? And where can you get quantities large enough to sanitize pools? Even if you are very allergic to chlorine there other alternatives. You still have to add chlorine to the pool in some manner to sanitize even if you are using other alternatives. Chlorine is in your drinking water and I would believe that there is less chlorine in a swimming pool than in your tap water. The combination of proper filtration, chlorine or a sanitizer, pH and alkalinity balance work in combination to keeping your pool clean besides regular maintenance. K.
