Bromine can be used to kill algae in Swimming Pools and water systems by adding bromine compounds, such as sodium bromide, to the water. When bromine is introduced, it oxidizes and disrupts the cellular processes of algae, effectively killing them. It's important to maintain the correct bromine levels (typically between 3-5 ppm) and to regularly test the water to ensure effective algae control. Additionally, proper circulation and filtration help enhance the efficacy of bromine against algae growth.
What else can I help you with?
Is bromine like salt for a pool?
Bromine is a chemical used to sanitize pool water, similar to chlorine. It is an alternative to chlorine and is often used in hot tubs and spas because it is more stable at higher temperatures. Both bromine and chlorine work to kill bacteria and algae in pool water.

Would bromine be an effective disinfectant and bleaching agent?
Yes, bromine can be an effective disinfectant in water treatment, swimming pools, and hot tubs due to its ability to kill bacteria and algae. It is also used as a bleaching agent, especially in the production of paper and textiles. However, its effectiveness can depend on the specific application and concentration used.
Does vinegar kill algae?
Yes, vinegar can be an effective natural remedy for killing algae. The acidity of vinegar can help to disrupt the growth of algae by changing the pH of the water, making it difficult for algae to survive. However, using vinegar to kill algae is best suited for small-scale applications such as removing algae from surfaces in a controlled environment.
How can I effectively kill black algae in my fish tank?
To effectively kill black algae in your fish tank, you can use a combination of manual removal, reducing light exposure, maintaining proper water parameters, and using an algae-killing treatment specifically designed for black algae. It is important to follow the instructions on the treatment product carefully and monitor the algae growth regularly to prevent future outbreaks.
Can I use UV with bromine in pool?
Yes, UV systems can be used in conjunction with bromine in a pool. UV can help to break down organic contaminants and improve overall water quality in the pool. However, UV should not be used as the sole method of sanitizing the pool, as bromine or another suitable sanitizer will still be needed to effectively control bacteria and algae.
What nuts contain bromine?
I haven't done much investigation in this, but it appears that the nuts don't naturally contain bromine. However, some companies use Methyl bromide fumigation to kill worms. (Walnuts were mentioned) I'm guessing this is where bromine is introduced into our nuts. Research Methyl Bromide fumigation. If they use it on nuts, what else are they using it on?
Will shock kill algae?
Yes. This is a potent chemical. It will kill the algae and turn it brown. Hope you have a good filtration system to filter all the brown out.
