Chlorine
Chlorine is an indispensable raw material for numerous industrial applications. Since it does not occur in its elemental form in nature, Donau Chemie produces it on an industrial scale via an environmentally friendly membrane process that uses chlor-alkali electrolysis of sodium chloride. This process simultaneously yields caustic soda and hydrogen as valuable byproducts.
Our chlorine stands out for its consistent quality and reliable availability. It is used, among other things, to produce bleaching agents, PVC, and hydrochloric acid, and plays a central role in drinking water disinfection and swimming pool water treatment.
Depending on your needs, we supply chlorine in various container sizes from steel cylinders and drums to rail tank cars. This ensures a safe and flexible supply for a wide range of applications.
