    Product Overview

    Powerful oxidizing agent and disinfectant for water sanitization and bleaching.

    Detailed Description

    Premium Calcium Hypochlorite supplier in Oman - Global Chemicals LLC. Buy calcium hypochlorite 65-75% for swimming pools, drinking water treatment, and industrial water disinfection in Muscat, Sohar, and across Oman. High available chlorine content ensures effective disinfection. Technical support and bulk delivery available. Calcium hypochlorite (65–75% available chlorine) is a preferred disinfectant for Oman's emergency water supply, rural water treatment, and offshore and remote industrial facilities where continuous liquid chlorine supply is impractical. Its high available chlorine content means smaller volumes are required compared to sodium hypochlorite — reducing storage and transport requirements for remote locations in Oman's interior, offshore platforms, and Al Wusta and Dhofar regions. The granular form dissolves quickly and is easier to transport and store than liquid chlorine. Global Chemicals LLC supplies calcium hypochlorite 65–70% in 25kg and 45kg drums with UN-certified packaging. Applications include emergency water disinfection, swimming pool shock treatment, oilfield produced water disinfection, and municipal backup disinfection. SDS and handling guide provided with each delivery.

    Frequently Asked Questions — Calcium Hypochlorite 65–75%

    Calcium hypochlorite (65–75% available chlorine) is used as a primary or backup disinfectant in drinking water treatment, swimming pool sanitation, wastewater disinfection, and emergency water purification. In Oman, it is the preferred disinfectant for remote water treatment facilities, offshore platforms, and sites where continuous liquid chlorine supply is impractical — such as industrial camps in Al Wusta, oil field facilities, and water treatment operations in Dhofar. Its high available chlorine content means only small quantities are needed: 1 kg of calcium hypochlorite (70%) provides the same disinfectant power as approximately 5 litres of sodium hypochlorite (12%).

    Calcium hypochlorite (solid, 65–75% available chlorine) and sodium hypochlorite (liquid, 12–15% available chlorine) both release hypochlorous acid (HOCl) when dissolved — the active disinfectant species. Calcium hypochlorite is more stable in storage (shelf life 12–24 months vs. 1–3 months for NaOCl), requires less storage volume per unit of available chlorine, and is safer to transport to remote locations. The disadvantages are higher cost per unit of chlorine and the need to dissolve granules before dosing. Sodium hypochlorite liquid is simpler to dose but degrades faster, especially in Oman's hot climate. For emergency or remote use, calcium hypochlorite's stability is a decisive advantage.

    For drinking water disinfection, calcium hypochlorite is dosed to achieve 0.5–1.0 mg/L free residual chlorine in the treated water, consistent with PAEW standards and WHO guidelines. The required product dose depends on the available chlorine content: for 70% grade, approximately 1.4 mg of product per litre of water produces 1 mg/L of available chlorine. Contact time (CT) must be sufficient — WHO recommends a minimum CT of 0.2 mg/L × 30 minutes for Giardia inactivation. In emergency water treatment (field or disaster conditions in Oman), sachets of granular calcium hypochlorite can be dissolved to treat tank water in camps or remote settlements without permanent dosing infrastructure.

    Calcium hypochlorite is a strong oxidiser that requires careful storage in Oman's climate. Store in a cool (below 30°C), dry, well-ventilated location away from direct sunlight, heat sources, flammable materials, acids, and ammonia — all of which can cause dangerous decomposition or fire. Drums must remain sealed until use. In Oman's coastal humidity (up to 90% RH in summer), moisture ingress into opened drums accelerates decomposition and chlorine gas release. Dedicated chemical stores separated from fuel, lubricants, and organic materials are mandatory. UN-certified packaging (UN3485 or UN1748) is required for transport. Global Chemicals LLC supplies calcium hypochlorite in sealed 25kg and 45kg UN-certified drums with full SDS and handling guidance.
