    Chlorine Generator Cost Comparison.

    Uploaded by

    Cris Sosa
    The document compares the cost of using commercial grade sodium hypochlorite versus on-site generation through electrolysis. Commercial chlorine costs Rs. 166.66 per kg due to a 4% strength loss during transport and storage, bringing it down to 6% from the original 10% strength. An electrochlorinator can produce 1 kg of chlorine for Rs. 37 using 4.5 kg of salt costing Rs. 13.50 and 4.5 kW of electricity costing Rs. 22.50, for a total production cost of Rs. 37. Using an electrochlorinator saves Rs. 129.66 per kg of chlorine produced and up to Rs. 1,50,000 per day for higher usage rates
