OxyChem advises against using our calcium chloride in drinking water applications due to the impurity of bromide. Bromide can react with oxidizers used for water sterilization, resulting in the formation of bromate. Many countries have strict limits on bromate levels in drinking water, which may not be met if our calcium chloride is used and sterilized with oxidizing chemicals like ozone.
