OBS

Le peroxyde de chlore a été utilisé pour éviter les goûts et odeurs. Cependant sa préparation et son contrôle nécessitent une surveillance très stricte, faute de quoi on risque de provoquer un enrichissement de l'eau en chlorite dont les effets directs et secondaires sont susceptibles d'être néfastes.
