Tom: We prefer a gas leak to a liquid leak, because the liquid is 400 times more concentrated. So the recommended approach is to rotate the container so that the leak is on the top. This ensures that gas -- the less dense form -- will leak, instead of liquid. If that doesn't clear it up for you, please e-mail me at mclean.stephen@ca.rr.com
Free chlorine is the most potent form of chlorine and is chlorine that isnt bound to anything such as amonia. Once it becomes combined it isnt as potent. Your residual is what is left in your distribution system after it has left your treatment facility and it could either be combined or free.
On the question about addressing a chlorine leak, I thought it was backwards as far as rotating the container. I thought if you rotate the container to where "liquid" comes out then you diminish the ppm by 400 times. This is what we were told in a training session. When cl2 liquid becomes gas it multiplies to 400 times the ppm of a liquid. Could you clear this up as to which procedure is correct? Thanks in advance.
Thank you, Mark F, for adding so much to the discussion!
Very helpful! Thanks for this.

Thanks again
Going for wastewater grade 1 so this helps
How should chlorine containers be moved and stored? Horizontal or vertical?
Thank you
What is the difference betweenfree chlorine and residual chlorine And what is required in the sewage rate

When the liquid is exposed to oxygen it multiplies itself by 400 times. That's why you want the gas coming out instead of the liquid.
love it
please can lhave your amil
