One step in the production of sugar from carbon dioxide involves a carbon nucleophile adding to the electrophilic carbon of carbon monoxide. The carbon nucleophile is created by the reaction of an enzyme called RuBisCo binding and activating a 5-carbon sugar molecule (ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate).
Oil and Water Separation. Hydramet specialises in water treatment solutions with a strong focus on chlorination, disinfection and chemical dosing for potable and wastewater treatment applications. Calcium hypochlorite is an effective alternative to sodium hypochlorite which is half to two-thirds cheaper.
To take care of pathogens in the water, you have to introduce a disinfecting agent that will get rid of them. The most popular pool disinfectant is the element chlorine, in the form of a chemical compound such as calcium hypochlorite (a solid) or sodium hypochlorite (a liquid). When the compound is added to the water, the chlorine reacts with the water to form various chemicals, most notably hypochlorous acid. Hypochlorous acid kills bacteria and other pathogens by attacking the lipids in the cell walls and destroying the enzymes and structures inside the cell through an oxidation reaction.
