High Demand for Chlorine for Production of PVC

The need for water treatment across the globe has risen substantially across the globe, which can be attributed to the surging population and increased water pollutions, owing to industrialization. Moreover, the awareness regarding drinking untreated water is increasing rapidly in a number of emerging economies, such as Thailand, Brazil, and India. Drinking untreated water can cause various diseases, such as Hepatitis A, cholera, typhoid, and hepatitis B. it is due to such factors that the demand for water treatment has been rising rapidly.
