Chloramines: Not safe for fish and other marine animals.
But, safe for humans... except kidney dialysis patients.
Does the above statement sound true and logical?
If it does, you can skip reading the following article.
How are chloramines made?
The city creates chloramines by injecting Ammonia to chloride directly into the flow of water.
There are injection stations through out the city, so that the last house at the end of any water line receives the required minimum quantity of monochloramine.
The city makes an attempt to make mostly monochloramine. The reason why they are is to reduce the volume of THMs (Trihalomethanes) being made. THMs are compounds formed by mixing chlorine with the naturally occurring organic compounds in the water. All of these compounds are known or suspected carcinogens.
The city is now adding chloramines. Chloramines is a plural word. In other words, there are mono-chloramines which the city is trying to create and there are other compounds that can be formed (that the city tries not to create) such as di-chloramines, and tri-chlorines.
Our existing carbon granule filters cannot remove these chloramines from our potable water. Neither will distillation, reverse osmosis, boiling, or UV light. The chloramines are very stable and can remain in the water several weeks.
Chloramines are excellent bactericides to disinfect the water. How will drinking this disinfectant impact on one’s kidneys on a long-term basis? And how will one’s flora in the digestive system react? Why is it so destructive to kidney dialysis patients?
For those who would like to use water free of chloramines, chlorine, trihalomethanes... etc. for drinking, cooking showering or bathing there is a solution. We are able to use a naturally occurring mineral to remove the chloramines without resorting to chemicals, man made resins or other artificial materials. This mineral has been used as a health supplement to humans, plants, and animals.
