#chloramine

my kids came over yesterday and we sat at my kitchen table telling our tales of the week and talking nonsense about nonsense and we laughed and laughed and laughed until the sun started to set and the streetlights came on

tomorrow morning at finnie's house we'll all get together and our partner's too and have our monthly big breakfast and visit some more. i know this window where we are all so near and we can get together so often, i know it will close eventually. i am trying so hard to pay attention to every minute

i had dark dreams and restless sleep last night but boba kept me company the whole time. i got so hungry thinking about tomorrow, i made myself a big breakfast this morning too and it felt so good. it's a sunny day. i am finishing my coffee. boba is warming herself in a bright spot and chirping happy thoughts. i have a new poetry collection waiting for me at the library and i'm going to walk up the hill and across the park and through the woods to go get it and i'll see where the day goes from there

There’s chlorine in your ingesting water, America. Or perhaps there is a completely different chlorine compound known as chloramine. This is not meant to alarm you, although after all it is alarming to many.

In the realm of antiseptics, chloramine B is widely utilised. In the lack of clean water, this chemical is used to disinfect water sources, particularly in flooded regions, to prevent pathogenic bacteria from developing. Chloramine B is also useful for disinfecting hand sanitizer, staining yellow spots on the floor, and sterilising medical equipment.

Chloramine B is a powerful antiseptic that kills all bacteria, viruses, fungus, and protozoa that cause illness in pets.Chloramines, particularly chloramine-B, are employed as antiseptics in medicine. Chloramine-B is a deodorizer and spermatocide with a 25–29 percent active chlorine content.

Chloramines are disinfectants that are used to treat water. When ammonia is added to chlorine to purify drinking water, chloramines are produced. Chloramines B disinfect water for a longer period of time when it travels via pipes to consumers. Secondary disinfection is the term for this form of disinfection.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention wrote in Disinfection with Chlorine & Chloramine:

Water can come from a variety of sources, such as lakes and wells, which can be contaminated with germs that can make people sick. Germs can also contaminate water as it travels through miles of piping to get to a community. To prevent contamination with germs, water companies add a…
