“…However, limitations in the use of chlorine include the production of off-tastes and odours, and potential formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) such as trihalomethanes (THMs), Haloactic acids (HAAs), Haloacetylnitrile (HAN) and nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) [13][14][15]. In addition, recovery of chlorine tolerant microbial pathogens at low chlorine dosages has been reported [16][17][18][19].…”

“…The antibacterial efficacy of HClO increased as the treatment time increased. Owoseni and Okoh (2017) found that chlorine doses of 0.75 to 1.0 ppm, although very low, reduced the tolerance to HClO of Enterococcus species isolated from two wastewater treatment plants.…”

“…An additional advantage of chlorine is that it can easily cover large surfaces (Hulkower et al, 2011). Some studies have shown that chlorine can inhibit fungal growth at a concentration of 75 ppm (Zoffoli et al, 2005), while Owoseni and Okoh (2017) reported that the lethal dose against bacteria was 1 ppm. But is chlorine effective against viruses?…”
