The electrolysis of salt brine solutions by onsite generators produces chlorine (free available
chlorine [FAC = Cl2, HOCl, and OCl]-) at concentrations ranging from 200 to 1,000 mg/L. There
is some speculation that the electrolysis of salt brine also produces chlorine dioxide (ClO2)
and ozone (O3). The analytical methods frequently cited for measuring ClO2 and O3 in anolyte
liquors following salt brine electrolysis are the DPD and indigotrisulfonate methods. These
analytical procedures are routinely used to measure drinking water residuals in finished
water. However, when used for measuring components in electrolysis cell liquors, falsepositive
results are observed. Includes 36 references, tables, figures.
